  • Alanis Morissette
    ALANIS MORISSETTE Her Birth and Childhood The daughter of Alan and Georgia Morissette, Alanis, an Ottawa native, was one of three children in the family (she has an older brother named Chad and a twin brother named Wade). Although the name Alanis is Greek itself, Alanis Morissette has no Greek background whatsoever. As it turns out, Alan Morissette wanted his daughter to have a female version of his name, but he wasn't particularly fond of the name Alanna. So one day, by chance, he spotted the name Alanis in a newspaper. Alanis loved dancing and acting when she was young (probably still does). She started learning ballet and jazz dancing at the age of 7. She has also done a lot of stage and theatre work, including a part on the highly popular kids television show "You Can't Do That on Television" when she was 11. Alanis also appeared in the TV movie "Just One of the Girls" in 1993. And as the young girl she said "I want to prove to people that just because you're young it doesn't mean you can't do as much as adults can....." And actually she was some kind of rebel all the time. She might have been an English or Drama teacher if she hadn't been involved in show business. But that, I can say fortunately, never happened. Her Breakthrough She has been writing songs for fun since she was 9 years old. Alanis admired the music and character of Olivia Newton John (from "Grease") tremendously when she was young, which is the main reason why she was so interested in music.
