Alanis Morissette has opened up about her sexuality in a candid moment on the Handsome podcast, hosted by Tig Notaro, Fortune Feimster, and Mae Martin. The 52-year-old singer, best known for her 1995 hit “Ironic,” revealed she identifies as pansexual during a conversation about relationships and past experiences with men.
A Surprise Admission
The topic arose when Feimster jokingly asked if negative experiences with men had ever made Morissette consider being a lesbian. Without hesitation, Morissette responded, “I’m pansexual, so, yeah.” The declaration caught Notaro off guard, prompting her to ask for confirmation—which Morissette stood by.
Reflections on Past Relationships
Morissette’s announcement aligns with previous remarks about her attraction to women, including a memorable on-screen kiss with Sarah Jessica Parker in 2000. She recalled the moment fondly on the Call Her Daddy podcast, describing it as “pleasant,” “easy,” and “buoyant.” Despite this, she has been married to rapper Mario “Souleye” Treadway since 2010, and the couple share three children.
A History of Speaking Out
Morissette has been vocal about her experiences with sexual assault in the music industry. In 2020, she claimed that “nearly every woman” in the business has faced harassment or assault, calling the environment “ubiquitously” toxic. A year later, she revealed that she was raped by multiple men as a 15-year-old starting out in Canada, only recognizing the abuse years later in therapy.
Her pansexuality announcement adds another layer to her public reflections on identity, relationships, and trauma—topics she has addressed both in her music and in interviews over the years.
