• Music Alanis Morisette returns to the stage and assumes her past

Alanis Morissette

(47) has denounced that when she was 15 years old she suffered a multiple rape, in a documentary that has already been seen at the Toronto International Film Festival.

The film, produced by HBO, is called

Jagged

and in it she recounts, in her own voice, the violent episode she experienced when she was already a teenage Canadian pop star.

"I had to do years of therapy to admit that there had been some victimization on my part," Morissette declares in the documentary. "I always told myself that it was consented, but then I remembered 'Hey, you were 15 years old, you do not give your consent when you are 15 years old.' Now I say: they

were all pedophiles

. It is a violation of minors," adds the singer.

The singer has not given the names of the rapists, but she has acknowledged that she has suffered pressure from the industry not to make the violation public and that at that time they ignored her: "I told some people, but

they turned a deaf ear. "

"The fact that I did not share specific information about my experience as a teenager was because I wanted to protect: protect my parents, protect my siblings, protect future partners," explains the protagonist.

In the same sense, Alanis Morissette emphasizes the fact that the victims silence what has happened to them: "You know that many people say: Why did that woman wait 30 years? And I say 'fuck it'. They don't wait 30 years. No one was listening. His livelihood was threatened or his family was threatened. "
