Alanis Morissette
The energetic and talented new singer on the radio is not what you would call laid-back. She is in no way a "here today, gone tomorrow" singer. I believe, she has and will revolutionize the entertianment industry. The daughter of Alan and Georgia Morissette, Alanis, an Ottawa native, is 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.

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, and is so interested in music. She also loved the writing style of George Michael. With the help of a friend of the family who was in the music business, Alanis released her first ever single at the young age of eleven. The song was called "Fate Stay With Me", and it was independently produced with money coming out of her own pocket. The song was not a hit by any means, but it got some air-play on Canadian radio ...
