Alanis Nadine Morissette is a Canadian singer, songwriter, producer, and occasional actress, best known for songs like "Hand in My Pocket", "Ironic", and "You Oughtta Know".
Background[]
She recorded the song "Stinky Britches" in the episode "Chef Aid", which was originally written by Chef. Later in the episode, Mr. Garrison is seen watching the music video, a parody of the music video of her song "Ironic".
Later, in the episode "Christian Rock Hard", Morissette joins the strike against illegal music downloading.
In "Where My Country Gone?", Cartman tries to convince Butters to ask a Canadian girl out and points out that one of them sort of looks like the singer. Butters quickly expresses his disgusts with the singer, saying "Alanis Morissette is like 80 years old or something!".
Morissette's voice was performed by Toddy Walters. Like several Canadian celebrities, including Tom Green in "Fat Camp" and Justin Bieber in "Coon vs. Coon & Friends", despite being Canadian, she does not resemble the stereotypical Canadian, such as Terrance or Phillip.
