Genre
[edit]I've removed "industrial" and "punk rock" as the citations were not specific to the song. Digital Spy said 'She sounds infinitely more comfortable on the Marilyn Manson-assisted 'Bad Girl', which recalls '70s punk surprisingly faithfully and offers an indication of where her sound could be go in the future.[1]" while Rolling Stone said "In "Bad Girl," she and Marilyn Manson get their industrial-glam cartoon kink on. [2]". These aren't specific enough and should not be taken as genre. Beside, whoever added it skipped glam, so we can't pick and choose like that. The nu-metal one is fine though.

@MagicatthemovieS: THis is my review of the article; I only have a handful of comments that I think need addressed for this to pass as GA.
Lead
Lavigne and Manson have been friends for years, and were once falsely rumored to be dating.
--this seems too involved to be in the lead, and I think is better part of the Background section only.- Maybe it's just me, but "creepy" strikes me as a bit informal/unencyclopedic. Maybe "unseemly" or something of the sort would be a better option?
Background
- Everything reads nicely here. No real issues with prose.
Composition
- I'm assuming "cruching guitars" is a typo for "crunching" or "crushing"?
- "pints"----"points"
Billboard named it a "salacious, sloppy, muddied rock music - as it damn well should be,"
-- "a" is an extra/unneeded article
Credits and personnel
- There may or may not be a standard rule on this, but from my experience with music articles, the person should be listed with their role following, not the other way around (i.e. "Avril Lavigne — backing, lead vocals," not "Backing, lead vocals – Avril Lavigne"). I do think the former makes more sense and is easier to navigate as far as list-form information goes.
Sources
- These seem to check out, and are appropriately archived/formatted.
Overall: This article is very close to passing; there are a few minor things I have pointed out above, but they are mostly minor technical issues and not related to the substance of the article here. On hold
