Canadian-American singer-songwriter Alanis Morissette has publicly identified as pansexual during a candid conversation on the Handsome podcast, offering a glimpse into her personal life and how she understands her sexuality.
The revelation came during the November 3 episode of the podcast, when the singer was asked whether past painful experiences with men had ever made her consider becoming a lesbian.
Responding directly, Morissette said, “I’m pansexual, so, yeah.”
Her answer appeared to catch co-host Tig Notaro by surprise, prompting her to seek clarification by asking, “Wait, you’re not really pansexual, are you?”
Morissette stood by her statement, responding simply: “I am.”
Pansexuality refers to the capacity to experience romantic or sexual attraction to people regardless of their gender identity. Unlike sexuality that is limited by gender, pansexual attraction is not defined by whether someone is male, female, or non-binary.
The singer’s comments have drawn attention to a personal aspect of her identity, shared casually during a conversation that initially centered on relationships and past experiences.
This is not the first time Morissette has opened up about deeply personal matters in recent podcast appearances.
During a September appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, the mother of three spoke candidly about her struggles with postpartum depression following childbirth.
Speaking with host Alex Cooper, the 51-year-old singer revealed that the condition became progressively more difficult after each pregnancy. She also disclosed experiencing intrusive thoughts that she described as “harrowing.”
Her willingness to discuss subjects such as sexuality, motherhood, and mental health offers a more personal perspective on the woman behind some of music’s most recognizable hits.
Morissette, best known for her groundbreaking 1995 album Jagged Little Pill, has remained a prominent voice in music for decades, with her recent comments adding another dimension to her public conversations about identity and personal experiences.
