Alanis Morissette is every bit the proud mom as she performs classic hit Ironic with daughter for her eighth birthday in Nashville
Alanis Morissette gave her daughter Onyx an unforgettable eighth birthday.
During her Triple Moon Tour, the mother of three took a break from her concert at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena to celebrate her daughter’s special day and sing her classic hit Ironic together.
With the help of her husband Mario Treadway, Onyx was helped onto the stage and promptly fell into her mother’s open arms.
The Jagged Little Pill superstar was the first to perform Happy Birthday, with many of the 20,000 fans singing along to their rock ‘n’ roll hero.
From that point on, the band hit the opening notes of Ironic and Onyx started singing the opening verse, while getting a little encouragement from her mother.

“An old man lived to be 98 / He won the lottery and died the next day,” a glowing Onyx sang, before her mother reminded her of the lyrics.
‘It’s a black fly in your Chardonnay / It’s a death sentence, two minutes too late / And isn’t it ironic? Don’t you think?’
The mother-daughter duo then sang the chorus together, again inspiring many of the audience to sing along.
“It’s like rain on your wedding day / It’s a free ride when you’ve already paid / It’s the good advice you just didn’t take / And who would’ve thought? It’s true,” the two sang with clear emotion in their voices.
The You Oughta Know singer-songwriter opted for the classic rock star look in black leather pants with a matching tank top and a shiny blue shirt that she left open.
Hailing from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, her dark brown locks still fell well past her shoulders, with extra volume, lots of natural waves and a center parting.
Onyx was just as cool as her mom by wearing leopard print pants, paired with a pink T-shirt and matching sneakers.

In addition to Onyx, Morissette and Treadway, who tied the knot in 2010, are also the parents of Ever (13) and Winter (4).
Ironic was the fourth of six hit singles from her classic album Jagged Little Pill, which became a cultural phenomenon upon its release in June 1995.

The album was a worldwide commercial success, topping the charts in 13 countries. It has sold over 33 million copies worldwide. It is now considered one of the best-selling albums of all time.
Jagged Little Pill was ultimately nominated for nine Grammy Awards, winning five, including Album of the Year.
Morissette’s The Triple Moon Tour, which also features special guests Joan Jett & The Blackhearts and Morgan Wade, is scheduled to begin August 10, though she will also be making sporadic festival appearances through the end of September.
