Alanis Morissette reveals she was raped at age 15 in New Doc

Canadian singer Alanis Morissette alleged multiple men had sex with her when she was only 15 in a new documentary, Toothed, which will premiere next week at the Toronto International Film Festival.

According to reports, she is not satisfied with the finished product and will not attend the premiere.

The film, an award-winning documentary filmmaker Alison Klayman directed, features a look at Morissette’s life and an interview at her home in California, which will show the journey of her life from being a dance-pop sensation in Canada to a successful recording artist in Los Angeles.

The 47-year-old musician also opened up Washington Post while reflecting on his time of sexual abuse as a 15-year-old star, a topic he claimed he “never talks about.”

“It took me years in therapy to even admit that there had been any kind of victimization on my part,” he confessed. “I would always say I was consenting, and then I would remember,‘ Hey, you were 15, you’re not consenting at 15. ”Now I say to myself,‘ Yeah, they’re all pedophiles. It’s all a legal violation. “

He did not reveal any of the names of his alleged abusers.

Alanis explained that he had told some people at the time after the alleged incidents calling for help, but “he fell on deaf ears”.

“It would usually be a stand-up time, out of the room,” he added.

Although she was determined to shed light on what she claimed was a common occurrence in the industry, she refused to make an appearance at the premiere to protest her disagreement with the final outcome of the film.

“Almost everyone I would work with, there would be a turning point where the camera would go to the Dutch angle,” he shared, suggesting the presence of toxic culture and trauma, and then added that “it would end in a relationship. “or” there would only be some great secret we would keep forever. “

While it’s weird that the subject of a documentary doesn’t attend the premiere, Alanis isn’t the first person to plan to do so. In 2012, Serena and Venus Williams did not appear at the Toronto premiere of a documentary based on their lives due to their objection to how their father Richard Williams was portrayed.
