Alanis Morissette, born June 1, 1974, in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, is one of the most influential singer-songwriters of her generation. After launching her career as a teen pop artist in Canada, she became a global superstar with the release of 1995’s Jagged Little Pill. The landmark album sold more than 30 million copies worldwide and produced enduring hits including “You Oughta Know,” “Hand in My Pocket,” “You Learn” and “Ironic.”
Over the decades, Alanis has continued to evolve as an artist, releasing multiple studio albums, earning seven Grammy Awards and building a reputation for her raw, deeply personal songwriting. Her impact on music remains significant, with Jagged Little Pill later inspiring a Tony Award-winning Broadway musical based on her songs.
Beyond music, Alanis has appeared in projects such as Dogma, Sex and the City, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Weeds. She has also become an advocate for mental health and wellness while balancing her career with raising her three children.
More than 30 years after first entering the spotlight, Alanis continues to tour and perform for fans around the world. Take a look back at her transformation from young Canadian singer to Grammy-winning music icon in our gallery.
