Alanis Morissette Discusses Earth Hour On ‘Larry King Live’

Asked why she was participating in the Saturday event asking people to dim their lights across the world for an hour beginning 8:30 PM, the singer songwriter said, “I just want to inspire as best as I can in people’s hearts their own activism on behalf of the planet that sustains and animates us.”
Asked if she thought this would work, she responded, “It depends what the intention or the agenda or the goal would be. Really, it’s to start the discussion and inspire people to reach out to our government, to encourage people to vote within the Senate, and have the president sign a bill that could really, you know, help the cause and shine a light on a cause that is, you know, I think one of the most important causes. There is no other thing to talk about if there’s no planet upon which we can live to do it.”
As for how Alanis herself adopts a green lifestyle, she told Larry, “I have solar panels and I compost. I design jewelry, so using sustainable methods to cull the gold to put into the jewelry. And then on a more public level organic cotton t-shirts for merch, the materials used for the CDs.”

Alanis Morissette Is Flattered If She Influences Pink Or Avril
The Miami Herald spoke with Alanis Morissette in a Q&A ahead of the singer songwriter’s performance at Broward Center for the Performing Arts on Monday night, asking her what she thought about younger peers like Avril Lavigne or Pink, who are so obviously influenced by her. “I’m flattered if they are in fact influenced, and some have been very verbal about it,” Alanis responded. “I’m excited when women can feel free to express themselves. It’s a very confusing postmodern time for females and the feminist movement. I finally feel like I’m getting my bearings, because I heard this great quote from someone who said the feminist movement gave us independence, but it didn’t give us love. So I see all these young women trying to figure out what footsteps to follow and what virgin snow to put tracks in. There’s a sort of lack of definition of what feminism means. I see a lot of women, myself included, struggling through that, even in music sometimes. And it’s fascinating to watch — it’s exciting to see us all define what 2008 means for a woman.” The full story at miamiherald.com has since been removed.
Morrissette Won’t Say If ‘You Oughta Know’ Is About Coulier
After Dave Coulier of ‘Full House’ fame claimed earlier this year that he was ex-lover who inspired the song ‘You Oughta Know’ by Alanis Morrissette, the singer is still refusing to confirm or deny if that was the case. “With all due respect to whomever may see themselves in my songs – and it happens all the time – I never really comment on it because I write these songs for myself,” The Associated Press reports the singer said recently during a conference call with reporters. “I don’t write them for other people. I can appreciate that some people say, ‘Hey, that’s me.’ And whether they’re accurate or not for whatever reason, people recognize themselves in my songs and that says something right there.”
