"Almost all women in the music industry have been assaulted, harassed, raped," she asked. It's ubiquitous - even more so in music than in cinema. It's just so standardized. "
If the singer has refrained from giving names, it is enough to think of the scandals that have erupted in recent years to realize that something is wrong. Despite the sordid cases that have exploded around R. Kelly, Dr. Luke and Russell Simmons, the music industry has not yet experienced the earthquake caused by #MeToo in Hollywood.
Sooner or later
"Sex, drugs and rock'n'roll?" Understand dirt, perspiration and aggressiveness. But it's only a matter of time before the industry has its own explosion of stories, continued Alanis Morissette, before addressing her own case. Many things have happened: sexual abuse, exploitation, financial decline. "

Let us hope, with Alanis Morissette, that the liberation of speech will intervene quickly within the music industry. Better late than never.
