Hey! Hey! You! You! Avril Settled Her Lawsuit!

Possibly too busy denying pregnancy rumours and dying her hair with Kool-Aid to bother with a drawn-out and costly legal battle, Avril Lavigne has made an out-of-court settlement in a suit that claimed the punk rock princess of adult contemporary radio plagiarized her hit song, "Girlfriend."

"No Way! No Way!" does this mean, however, that Lavigne has admitted to ripping off her summer smash.

Members of the Rubinoos, a '70s rock band that neither you nor your dad has ever heard of, filed the suit against Lavigne, claiming she ripped off their 1979 song, "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend."

Lavigne denied the allegations, claiming - much like most people under 45 - that she'd never heard the song before. Terry McBride, Lavigne's manager, went so far as to consult with a musicologist, who said the songs were definitely different.

Still, as reported by Canadian Press, the Rubinoos' lawyer confirmed Lavigne paid the band a settlement. The amount has not been disclosed, nor has Lavigne commented on the situation.
