Alanis Morissette turns 50 today and disclose in an interview about discovering her heritage and family history, speaks on her journey so far
“This is a very good time to be alive as an empath and a highly sensitive artist,” the singer-songwriter told.
For a long time, Alanis Morissette felt alone.
From a career standpoint, she was doing considerably well for a teen in 1990s Ottawa, Ontario. She had released two dance-pop albums before she was legally allowed to drink in her native Canada (the legal drinking age up north is 19 in most areas).
She had signed a two-album record deal and was drawing comparisons to Debbie Gibson. She was on a trajectory that, if correctly followed, would likely amount to local teen pop stardom — but Morissette felt misunderstood. She was coming of age yet she wasn’t actually allowed to talk about the complicated rage that came with it — at least as an artist.
