Morissette Sues Tour Manager Over Blackmail | Los Angeles News
Description
Alanis Morissette is suing her former tour manager, Keren Urinov, accusing her of a brazen blackmail scheme that began when a bag allegedly containing drugs was found at a UK airport. Urinov admitted ownership to officials but now threatens to falsely claim the bag belonged to Morissette, risking drug trafficking charges. In return, she’s demanding a 15-year contract, massive payouts, and help with a US visa — all while Morissette’s team calls it civil extortion. The lawsuit reveals Urinov allegedly used a medical marijuana license to get the bag back and continued pressuring Morissette post-tour with escalating threats, including bogus lawsuits. Morissette’s camp also claims Urinov was an ineffective manager and refuses to pay her off — especially not for what they call an “extraordinary payday” fueled by coercion.
