North American pop punk star Avril Lavigne brought the house down during a passionate performance in Shanghai on Monday night as part of her Black Star tour.

 

As Li Zhen reports, Avril left her fans eager for more.

Li Zhen said, "It's Avril's third time to come to Shanghai. The concert should have started at 8 o'clock. Now 50 minutes has past and she is not on the stage yet. All her fans are waiting for her anxiously."

When Avril appears, screams filled the Shanghai Grand Stage. Nearly one hour of waiting hasn't dented the enthusiasm of the crowd one bit. The Canadian pop punk princess went on to do what she does best, wowing them with her spirited melodies.

Avril broke onto the music scene with her debut album Let Go in 2002 and went on to release 4 albums in 10 years.

In the 75 minutes show, Avril ran through some of the biggest hits in her first 3 album including Complicated、I’m With You、My Happy Ending.

As well as old favorites, the Shanghai concert was dedicated to her latest album, Goodbye Lullaby, released last month. In this new album, Avril's style takes a more delicate and soulful turn.

Li Zhen said, "From a young outrageous punk spirit, to a grown woman with a mature aura, Avril Lavigne has changed a lot in the last decade. But several things remain the same -- the glamour of her music -- and the adulation of her fans."

It is great. Her energy was so powerful. We liked it.

She has grown up. Now she is more feminine, but I still love it.

I loved every minute of it. I am very excited. I just love the original Avril and I think she is still who she used to be.

Shanghai concert is just the first stop on her Black Star Tour. For her next date in China, Avril heads for Hong Kong on May 7th.
