Sex pops up on tour
Video claims Alanis made bet
with band on who could have
most sex
By IAN NATHANSON -- Ottawa Sun
IT'S amazing the stuff that keeps
popping up about Alanis Morissette.
It seems our own Little Miss Thing --
you know the one who sang about
doing it in a movie theatre -- put her
libido on the line during a concert run.
Pop-Up Video -- a U.S. based
company that adds interesting little
tidbits in the way of text bubbles to
music videos -- said Little Miss Thing
had an interesting wager going during
her Jagged Little Pill tour.
Included among the items added to her
Thank U video, Pop-Up says, "Alanis
started a contest with her band to see
who could sleep with the most people
during her last tour.
"She came in third."
How many?
So how many people did she sleep
with? Twenty? Ten? One? None?
We figured her management team
oughta know.
"I haven't seen the video, but I think
you oughta ask the Pop-Up Video
people," said a terse Steve Waxman of
Warner Music Canada, Morissette's
Canuck label.
Consider it done. Paging Pop-Up
Video, you're wanted on line one ...
"Ah yes, that came from E! Online,"
explained Chris Bonner of Spin The
Bottle, who personally put together the
Thank U Pop-Up, bought by U.S. music
channel VH-1 earlier this year and
currently playing on MuchMusic in
Canada.
"It was initially called into question as
a suspect source, but we decided to run
with it because it was reputable. E!
Online would not source it beyond
that."
Sexual Chocolate
True to his word, E! Online carried the
contest item as No. 41 of "50 Things
You Oughta Know About Alanis
Morisette." Except for Morissette, the
item did not include how her
bandmates at that time -- Taylor
Hawkins (now with the Foo Fighters),
Jesse Tobias and Nick Lashley and
Chris Chaney, collectively dubbed
"Sexual Chocolate" -- fared.
Bonner said the video has been airing
for almost a year and has heard nary a
complaint from viewers, the
Morissette camp, nor executives at
VH-1 or MuchMusic.
"We produce everything here at Spin
The Bottle, which has its own in-house
standards," Bonner said. "VH-1 then
buys it and they have their own
in-house legal standards. It passed all
the way through."
Hey, you live, you learn.
