Avril, on recent tabloid pics of her looking wasted:

"I was out for 10 weeks in Asia, (went) to L.A. for a weekend to meet my girlfriends, went out -- and yeah, we had some drinks, yeah -- and some paparazzi took some pictures and now everybody thinks I'm an alcoholic," the Canadian pop star tells the Sun during a phone interview from Germany.

"But the funny thing is, I've been on tour for six weeks (now), I've drank probably twice because I was in Italy and I had some red wine. "I'm on a vegan diet, I do yoga every day, I work out, I'm totally spiritual -- I'm completely opposite of what everyone thinks I am right now.

"Everyone thinks I'm this angry ... alcoholic and I'm losing all of my friends." "To me, I look at that and my friends look at that and we laugh," she says. "All those people who buy those magazines are dumb. Those who buy them and believe them are dumb."

"One good thing ... it makes me look more like a rock star."
