Sure, Alanis Morissette has an album coming out next month, but you have to wonder about the timing of this revelation: The Canadian pop singer says a recent breakup led to her to try "everything from pounding pillows to sharing with intimate friends" in order to get through "a personal unraveling of significant relationships in my life."

"The record chronicles the rock bottom finally being hit," she tells People.

Ouch. Be strong, Alanis. We’ve all been there.

Still, did you have to bare your “rock bottom” the same week a famous ex of yours, Ryan Reynolds, announced his engagement to hotastic Scarlett Johansson? (Who, yes, also has a new album of her own to push, BTW.) As much as we feel your pain, you oughta know that raining on your ex’s parade just makes you look bitter. Next time, try saying, “I’m so happy for them”—even if you don't mean it.

Then you can go back to pounding the pillows.

Scarlett & Ryan Engaged!
