Lavigne became interested in appearing on television and in feature films. The decision, she said, was her own. Although her years of experience in making music videos would be to her advantage, Lavigne admitted her experience in singing removed any fear of performing on camera. She specifically mentioned that the video "Nobody's Home" involved the most "acting".[75] Her first television appearance was in a 2002 episode of Sabrina, the Teenage Witch,[95] performing "Sk8er Boi"[96] with her band in a nightclub.[97] She later made a cameo appearance in the 2004 film Going the Distance. The main characters bump into her backstage at the MuchMusic Video Awards[98] after her performance of "Losing Grip".[99]
