Real Estate Broker "Since Avril first appeared as a Breaker artist, months before 'Complicated' was on the radio, the response from our members has been nothing short of phenomenal," said Evan Harrison, Vice President and General Manager of AOL Music. "Avril's first stripped down appearance on Sessions@AOL, more than two years ago, created an immediate reaction. Now, after selling 14 million records, we're thrilled to welcome her back to perform with a full band, as part of our Broadband Rocks series the night before her new release."

In the Awards stakes, Avril Lavigne and Nelly Furtado were big winners, while Brit rock band Muse also brought home two awards, including best headliner.
