lanis Morissette made a guest appearance on Taylor Swiftâs tour after experiencing difficulties as a woman in the music industry during the Nineties.
The Jagged Little Pill singer told The Telegraph, âI turned to women in my 20s and there weren't a lot rushing to my side to support meâ.
The 41-year-old recalled âI remember a lot of awkward phone calls I would make for support and they would ask âWhy are you calling me?!â" (...)

To busk or not to busk,that is the question.
If you didn't bring this up, I sure as hell was.
She was signed to Madonna's Maverick record label and received a then-unprecedented $1 for every copy of Jagged Little Pill that was sold, an album that would go on to sell 33 million copies.
Almost overnight, Alanis Morissette was a multi-millionaire. Madonna allowed her to become rich beyond her wildest dreams.
She’s a horrible singer. That she has such a high level of success is amazing. I don’t know how much help she had, but her talent sure didn’t get her there.
So then what in the heck is she complaining about????
Its fine if she wants to help others but what’s with complaining nobody gave her a helping hand???
Oh, I bet there were a few who helped you with a little somethin'-somethin' sweetiecakes.
I’m still broke. GFYB
I have no idea. And it's not like Taylor Swift needs a boost either.
There's certainly a few other female artists that could benefit from Alanis Morrisette showing up at one of their shows though.
No sure Taylor needs your help. But thanks or playing.
Yes, no kidding. “And for my next act I’m gonna teach some of my sweet blues licks to Stevie Ray Vaughan.”
Ok. But what about the MEN that helped you?
Friggin femanazi.
Men don’t matter, don’t you know that? Neanderthal! /S
Busking for poutine money. That’s a good one.
Until they need a flat tire changed.
Nope. Diana Ross and Aretha Franklin did squat all for you sweety. Back to your knees on the floor of that theater.
Ridiculous. She was a child star in Canada.
Her real breakthrough with You Oughta Know was because it was “menacing female aggression” about on a par with Fatal Attraction. However, for those that don’t know, she first recorded a really “stalker” version of You Oughta Know that while not as violent, makes up for it in creepy.
