Avril Lavigne got a little help from a friend for a new project. Danica McKellar got all dressed up for a day and starred in Lavigne's new video for "Rock N Roll".

Winnie Cooper is officially a rock star. Danica McKellar, who played the TV-show girlfriend of Kevin Arnold (Fred Savage) on The Wonder Years, was given the rock-star treatment for Avril Lavigne’s new video “Rock N Roll.”

Lavigne posted a photo on Twitter of herself and McKellar all dressed up for the camera. The clothing was nothing new for Lavigne, but quite the rock and roll makeover for McKellar, the math whiz and mom (and new Mommaloguer for SheKnows).

McKellar is all dressed up in blue fishnets and heavy eye makeup, while Lavigne is wearing an army helmet and green bustier. According to MTV, the song has Lavigne calling herself "the motherfreaking princess," but she looks anything but that in the new photo.

McKellar tweeted about the video shoot on Friday.

Just had the best time shooting @AvrilLavigne's new video. And she is so sweet and fun! Made me feel like a rock star. ;)

Lavigne shared the photo of her and McKellar, along with the caption, "My partner in crime @danicamckellar on the set today of my music video for #ROCKNROLL."

Thank you @danicamckellar for acting in my video. You are beautiful and so sweet. We kicked butt today! #ROCKNROLL

There is no word on how Lavigne and McKellar know each other, but it sounds like they've quickly become friends.

Lavigne’s upcoming album is the same one where she met her husband Chad Kroeger (whom she married earlier this month) when he joined her to help write a song. She also worked with other musicians, including Marilyn Manson.
