New Again: Alanis Morissette
Twenty years ago, Alanis Morissette released her now-legendary debut album Jagged Little Pill, which went on to earn the Canadian-American singer four 1996 Grammy Awards: Best Female Rock Vocal Performance, Best Rock Song, Best Rock Album, and Album of the Year. During her teenage years, Morissette released two pop albums in Canada, Alanis (1991) and Now is the Time (1992), and after Jagged Little Pill, she continued her path to rock stardom with Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie (1998), Under Rug Swept (2002), So-Called Chaos (2004), Flavors of Entanglement (2008), and Havoc and Bright Lights (2012), earning three more Grammys along the way. But more than a singer, songwriter, guitarist, and producer, Morissette has also honed her talent as an actress. She’s in movies like Dogma and Just Friends, and has made appearances in cult television series like Sex and the City, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Weeds. As of this week, she’s back with yet another endeavor: a podcast entitled Conversation with Alanis Morissette.
