Alanis Morissette Sues Former Tour Manager for Extortion & Fraud
The suit alleges Urinov threatened to report Morissette for drug trafficking unless she was hired under a 15-year contract with massive compensation.
- On Tuesday, Grammy-winning singer Alanis Morissette sued former tour manager Keren Urinov in Los Angeles federal court, alleging a "calculated blackmail campaign" involving false drug trafficking threats.
- Trouble began during a 2025 trip when Urinov, hired as temporary tour manager, admitted to British Border Force officials that a bag containing marijuana and xylazine belonged to her.
- Demanding a 15-year contract and visa assistance, Urinov threatened to falsely report Morissette for drug trafficking unless the singer provided "massive compensation," according to the lawsuit.
- On August 19, Urinov filed a separate claim in London's High Court, while Morissette seeks unspecified financial damages and punitive fines against the former manager.
- As the singer prepares for her September 18 Riot Fest performance, Morissette claims Urinov concealed a prior arrest for drug smuggling in Latin America that would have disqualified her.
