LAVIGNE GETS PICKY WITH HER PARTS

Aspiring actress AVRIL LAVIGNE has conceded launching a Hollywood career is harder than she anticipated.

Avril Lavigne at the Cannes Film Festival 2006 - Screening of 'Over The Hedge'. Cannes, France - 21.05.06

The 22-year-old took a break from music last year (06) to concentrate on movies, but only signed to two projects - animated film OVER THE HEDGE and ensemble piece FAST FOOD NATION - because she was left unimpressed by the majority of scripts she read.

Now Lavigne accepts finding the perfect silver screen role could take years.

She says, "I decided a couple of years ago that I wanted to get into acting so I got a movie agent and thought that on my last year off I would have shot a whole bunch of movies, but I didn't because I've been reading scripts for two years and they've all been crap.

"I realised that I can't just decide, 'Hey, I want to act,' and then be in a wicked movie. It might be five years until I find the perfect film.

"So I have to be patient. I don't want it to be cheesy. I'm not going to do something till I read the script and go, 'Oh my God, this is it!' It really has to speak to me."
