It didn’t feel like a celebrity segment — it felt like watching two siblings reunited after years apart, and the car could barely contain their energy. Avril Lavigne and Yungblud’s turn on Carpool Karaoke quickly spiraled into the kind of wild, chaotic joy usually reserved for family road trips.
From the moment they buckled in, it was less about polished performance and more about pure mischief: Avril blasting out her early 2000s anthems, Yungblud shouting harmonies like a kid in the backseat, both of them laughing so hard the cameras almost shook.
There was teasing, playful chaos, and the kind of comfort that comes only when two people feel like they’ve known each other forever. Yungblud leaned into Avril’s pop-punk legacy with infectious admiration, while Avril treated him like the younger brother she never had — rolling her eyes, joking at his antics, but never hiding her grin.
By the time they roared through “Sk8er Boi” with the windows down and the car bouncing like a moving mosh pit, it no longer felt like a segment of late-night television. It felt like being let in on a secret — the kind of friendship that blurs into family, messy and loud, but beautiful in its authenticity.
Fans who tuned in expecting music left with something more: the rare joy of watching two kindred spirits collide, proving that sometimes the best duets don’t need a stage at all, just a steering wheel and an open road.
