"How many people reading this are fans of Nickelback?," Patrick Stump asks at the beginning of a new blog post on his website. The thoughtful Fall Out Boy frontman proceeds to question why people pour so much energy into hating certain bands and other pop culture figures.
In October it was announced that Avril Lavigne, who is engaged to Chad Kroeger, would release a cover of Nickelback's 'How You Remind Me,' and now, Chavril fans, that moment is here.
Avril Lavigne and ex-husband, Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley, have had a friendly relationship even after their divorce -- they worked together on a few of her albums -- so when Whibley donned a Lavigne costume for Halloween, fans weren't sure if it was an honor or a dig to the 'Girlfriend' singer.

Avril Lavigne has been hard at work on her followup to 'Goodbye Lullaby,' and she's been proudly collaborating with fellow Canadian Chad Kroeger of Nickelback on the project. The 'How You Remind Me' rocker revealed what it's like working -- and playing -- with Lavigne.

Nickelback aren't going to let a mere 55,000 (and counting) angry people stand in the way of their Thanksgiving performance at halftime of the Detroit Lions NFL game. Their response to the anti-Nickelback online petition was to create a Funny or Die skit making fun of the outrage.
Polarizing pop rockers Nickelback are letting listeners try before they buy. Roadrunner Records reports that the band is streaming their entire new album, 'Here and Now,' on iTunes leading up to its Nov. 21 release.
Nickelback are scheduled to perform at halftime of the NFL Thanksgiving Day football game in Detroit, but if Lions fans have their way, the band will never see the field. As of Friday morning, more than 25,000 disgruntled fans had signed a petition on change.org asking the Lions to remove the band from the schedule.
