Avril Lavigne has reached a settlement in the copyright lawsuit brought against her by The Rubinoos. The group claimed that she stolen too much of the track “I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend” for her song “Girlfriend,” especially the chorus, which goes “Hey, hey, you, you, I wanna be your boyfriend.” Despite the obvious similarities, Lavigne denied that she’d ever heard the song and claimed that hers was completely different. However, the two sides reached a confidential agreement this week, although details, such as how much money Lavigne forked over, were not released to the media.
