Quote by Alanis Morissette
Its not just the Grammys that Ive pulled out of. I also pulled out

Its not just the Grammys that Ive pulled out of. I also pulled out of the English awards as well. The reason that I wanted to pull out was because I believe very much that the music industry as a whole is mainly concerned with material success. – Alanis Morissette

Right now Im in the middle ground – I think women in their thirties are taken seriously. – Alanis Morissette
