Her first international album, Jagged Little Pill sold 30 million copies, making it the best-selling debut album by a female artist, ever.

Alanis Morissette wasted little time developing her skills as a performer, taking up the piano at the age of 6 and writing her own songs by the time she was 9. Her first venture into the spotlight... was as an actress on the popular Canadian children's TV show You Can't Do That on Television at the age of 10; the recognition (and income) earned as a result made possible her independently-released single Fate Stay With Me shortly afterwards. A deal with MCA Canada was secured within a couple of years, and her dance-oriented full-length debut Alanis hit the Canadian pop music market in 1991 like a 2-ton rhino in spandex. The 1992 follow-up release, Now is the Time, took a somewhat more thoughtful musical approach, and consequently had a somewhat more restrained commercial impact (although it still managed to attain platinum status). After graduating from high school, Morissette relocated to Toronto in a attempt to revive an already-fading music career, but with little positive result.

Pop vocal artist and composer Alanis Morissette gained fame when she signed with Madonna's Maverick Records and released Jagged Little Pill in 1995. However, her first experience with show business came long before her singing career. Born on June 1, 1974, in Ottawa, Canada, she appeared on the TV series You Can't Do That on Television! in the mid-'80s. Her musical skills had been honed since she began playing the piano at the age of six, and ... she began recording by the time she was ten. After spending time making an album in Toronto, she relocated to Hollywood, where she began working under Maverick and released Jagged Little Pill.
