Parker: 'Alanis Morissette is so Canadian'

Mary-Louise Parker has insisted that Alanis Morissette was a pleasure to work with on the set of Weeds.

The actress has said that the singer was very "sweet" and "so Canadian" when describing her relaxed manner of conduct.

Parker told Paste magazine: "She's a sweet lady. She's almost so sweet that it doesn't really compute that she does music with such a like, a rocking, angry…I don’t know, maybe that's how she gets it out.

"Because on set she's completely, I mean she's so Canadian. She’s really polite and really chill and really clean."

Morissette will be making a guest appearance with Jennifer Jason Leigh on the fifth season of Weeds, which premieres in the US tonight.
