“Morissette will not be coerced into delivering her blackmailer an extraordinary payday,” the filing states The post Alanis Morissette Accuses Former Tour Manager of ‘Calculated Blackmail Campaign’ in Extortion Lawsuit appeared first on TheWrap .
Alanis Morissette filed an extortion lawsuit against her former tour manager, Keren Urinov, alleging the man orchestrated a blackmail campaign against her. In the lawsuit, Morissette claimed that Urinov, the disgruntled ex-employee, threatened to report her to British authorities for drug trafficking unless Morissette agreed to employ him for fifteen years and pay massive compensation.
According to the lawsuit, the alleged incident occurred on July 12, 2025, at Farnborough Airport in the UK, where Urinov claimed a bag containing marijuana and xylazine - which actually belonged to her - had been seized by British Border Force. After the tour ended, Urinov and his attorney sent letters to Morissette demanding the employment contract, a UK work visa, and additional compensation.
Morissette rejected Urinov's demands, saying she would not work with an incompetent blackmailer for fifteen years or pay her a ransom. The filing seeks compensatory damages, punitive damages, and other relief as the Court deems just and proper.
