Pierre Bouvier
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pierre Charles Bouvier (May 9, 1979 in Montréal, Quebec) is the lead singer of the Canadian pop punk band Simple Plan. Before and partly during his musical career, Bouvier worked as a youth in a barbecue restaurant in his hometown of Montréal as a cook. At age 15, he founded the punk rock band Reset with his schoolmate Chuck Comeau, in which he was the lead singer and guitarist. Dissatisfied with the artistic direction of the band, Bouvier helped to found Simple Plan, of which he is the frontman and lead singer. In live performance, he plays guitar (electric and acoustic) for certain songs. He also hosted a show on MTV called Damage Control.
Among his closest friends are Avril Lavigne, and the twin brothers Joel and Benji Madden (Good Charlotte). Currently Bouvier lives with his dogs in the vicinity of Montréal, although he resides part-time in California.
