¡Feliz Cumpleaños, Alanis Morissette!

AKA Alanis Nadine Morissette.*

Born June 1, 1974.

Everyone's favorite Canadian pop singer of the 1990s is now a Canadian-American. As far as I know, she is still white and female but whether or not she is still angry is anyone's guess.

She recently found critical acclaim for her role as Dr. Audra Kitson on the cable series Weeds and, of course, she played the ultimate role for an actress in the 1999 film Dogma. She has been also known to have one hand in her pocket and no doubt she is still known for having an unique way of passing the time in movie theatres.

She is no longer as famous as she used to be but she was one of my late sister's favorite singers so she will always be famous to somebody as far as my family is concerned.

* Birth name.

Pop Song of the Week: "Head over Feet"

For mi novia, who may not be a big Alanis Morissette fan but who definitely succeeded in winning me over in spite of me. However, I doubt that she or I would describe ourselves as being friends with benefits.

AKA Alanis Nadine Morissette.

Born June 1, 1974.

She is everyone's favorite Canadian pop singer of the 1990s. More recently she found critical acclaim for her role as Dr. Audra Kitson on the cable series Weeds. She has been known at times to have one hand in her pocket as well as for having an unique way of passing the time in movie theatres.

In 2005, she managed to become an American citizen while retaining her Canadian citizenship -- which is a nice trick if you can pull it off.

She is no longer as famous as she used to be but she was one of my late sister's favorite singers so she will always be famous to somebody as far as my family is concerned.
