Alanis an American, eh?

Radii · 06-09-2005, 08:22 PM

I was listening to the pregame for the NBA finals in the car and then the PA Announcer as they did the opening stuff, and I hear this:

"Singing the national anthem for the first time since becoming a United States Citizen... ALANIS MORISETTE"

When did this happen? Why?

Lathum · 06-09-2005, 08:26 PM

I think she married.... someone?

Suicane75 · 06-09-2005, 08:32 PM

I was traded. Please say hello to the newest resident of SASKATOOOOOON!

stevew · 06-09-2005, 08:34 PM

I think she became a citizen at least a year or two ago. I remember cause it was so ironic cause she was so Anti-US government, but joining at the same time.

If we can send Bryan Adams back, then this is a good deal.

duckman · 06-09-2005, 08:39 PM

"We have apologized for Bryan Adams on numerous occassions."

Welcome. You're living in the province next to me now. Enjoy your stay in flatland.

Swaggs · 06-09-2005, 08:51 PM

Her boyfriend is Ryan "Van Wilder" Reynolds, who is also Canadian (I believe).

I don't want to presume to speak for all Canadians, but personally....I'll take that trade in a heartbeat.

Please note that the above statement is in no way an expression of affection or admiration for Mr. Adams.

Joe Canadian · 06-09-2005, 10:11 PM

Alanis married another Canadian, the guy from "Two Guys, A Girl, and a Pizza Place"... and Jagged Little Pill was a great album, if you actually like music.

Phase one was Celine moving to Las Vegas.

Easy Mac · 06-09-2005, 10:48 PM

So I assume we let the chainsaw weilding psycho in so he could kill all the Canadian-American singers... too bad Canada was wise to our ruse.

When did this happen? Why?

I think she became an honorary citizen when she made tons of money.

stevew · 06-10-2005, 05:36 AM

Like you guys never bought Jagged Little Pill. Well, at least 5% or so of all Americans did.

I did, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything since has been pretty terrible though.

Nah. It'd been better if his skull exploded and we wouldn't have had to hear another lame attempt at humor by him.

Yeah he added like 20 pounds of muscle and cut out like 25% of his body fat for that role.

And I only know this because it is an article in a recent Mens health magazine.

Nobody else gets to become an American citizen from Canada until we get to send you someone in return (Ben Affleck, Larry King, Rosie O'Donnell, Ashley Simpson) take pick.

Alanis released an acoustic version of Jagged Little Pill yesterday for its 10th anniversary. I think you can only get it at starbucks for the first week or two. Anyways, i remember driving to somewhere in Ohio the first time i heard "You Oughta Know." I tried to get it a few days later in a music store, but i guess it hadnt come out yet(those days when internet wasnt readily accessable suck) That album was so frigging huge.
