Iconic singer-songwriter Alanis Morissette has publicly come out as pansexual. The musician revealed this aspect of her identity during a candid conversation on the Handsome podcast, which is hosted by Mae Martin, Tig Notaro, and Fortune Feimster.

The discussion turned toward her personal history and creative output when Feimster asked the artist if her past experiences with men had ever influenced her to explore lesbian relationships. Morissette confirmed her orientation by stating, “I’m pansexual, so, yeah.” When Notaro sought further clarification, the singer reaffirmed her statement, confirming her identity to the hosts.

Morissette, who is married to rapper Mario John Treadway—professionally known as Souleye—with whom she shares three children, continues to maintain a busy professional schedule. She recently debuted her holiday-themed album, Good Weather For Immaculate Conception, a project that blends classic seasonal tracks with two original compositions.

Beyond her recording work, the artist is currently presenting Butterfly With A Machete at the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles. This multimedia stage production, which she co-wrote and produced, offers an immersive look at the trajectory of her career over the last three decades.

Her recent activities also include legal action against a former tour manager, Keren Urinov. Morissette filed a lawsuit alleging that Urinov, who managed her 2025 European tour, engaged in fraud, extortion, and negligent misrepresentation, claiming the former employee attempted to use drug trafficking allegations as leverage to force a long-term contract.

Musically, Morissette remains active in the industry, including a notable recent collaboration with Olivia Rodrigo. The two performed a duet of Morissette’s 1996 anthem “Ironic” during the Daisy Chain Fields festival, an event organized by Rodrigo in Irvine, California.
