Celebs and their quirks!
Before Alanis Morissette was a massive star, she was just a Canadian singer-songwriter opening for Vanilla Ice.
As nerve-wracking as this may have been, she revealed during a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen that she wasn't even allowed to look the rapper in the eyes...
Ever since she announced plans for a full North American tour for her 1995 "Jagged Little Pill" album on December 2, she's been back in our lives like never before.
It contains some of her biggest mega-hits, such as "You Oughta Know," "Hand in My Pocket," and "Ironic."
For instance, she and Jimmy Fallon went busking in disguise at the New York City subway as a segment for his show, The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon.
While this ended up getting a ton of attention from commuters, people literally began running to see them perform once they took off their disguises and Alanis performed her hit, "You Oughta Know."
It was here that she spilled the truth, once and for all, on whether Vanilla Ice used to forbid people from looking him in the eyes.
At the time of opening for him, Alanis was relatively unknown while the rapper was a massive star thanks to the success of his pop song, "Ice Ice Baby."
Then, she explained the reasoning behind it.
“So I just averted my eyes.”
Another called asked if she would ever reveal the inspiration behind for the breakup classic, "You Oughta Know."
Since it's such a popular song that has stood the test of time — 25 years, to be exact — that could be why actor Dave Coulier claimed it was about him.
“There’s something like six people that have taken credit for it and I just think, if you’re gonna take credit for a song where I’m singing about someone being a douche or an [expletive] you might not want to say, ‘Hey, that’s me!’”
At one point, she was even engaged to the fellow Canadian star who she dated for five years.
But given that Ryan is a pure, sweet angel, we refuse to believe that the song is about him.
They got married in 2010 during a private ceremony in their home and have three kids together, Onyx, Winter, and Ever Imre.
Staying on the theme of the song "You Oughta Know," a new caller asked what Morissette thought of Britney Spears’ cover of the song.
Finally, when asked what celebrity has left her the most starstruck, she answered with the late singer Prince.
Hopefully, she was able to look him in the eyes!
