Alanis Morissette's Career-Defining Album Returns As It Celebrates A Major Birthday
Alanis Morissette changed the sound of top 40 radio decades ago with her album Jagged Little Pill. By the time she released the full-length, the young singer-songwriter had already found some success in Canada with a more dance-pop-oriented direction, but she decided to switch things up and venture into alternative rock.
Her third full-length, Jagged Little Pill, took over the world and has hardly faded from popularity ever since. Now, the set is back on multiple charts in the United Kingdom as fans honor its milestone birthday.
Jagged Little Pill Turns 30
Jagged Little Pill was released on June 13, 1995, which means it just turned 30 years old. To celebrate the project's anniversary, fans across the U.K. began purchasing the blockbuster in large enough numbers to bring it back to multiple tallies.
Jagged Little Pill reenters the Official Albums Sales chart at No. 75. It also returns to the Official Physical Albums list at No. 95.
Jagged Little Pill Shoots Back Into the Top 20
Morissette's classic can be found on three rankings in the U.K., but it only needed to return to two of them. Jagged Little Pill vaults from No. 92 to No. 20 on the Official Album Downloads chart. Since it sits so low on the Official Physical Albums roster, it seems clear that fans of the singer preferred to purchase the collection digitally, rather than go out to a store and pick up a CD or vinyl.
Alanis Morissette's Past No. 1
While Jagged Little Pill may sit lowest at the moment on the Official Physical Albums chart, that's the only one of the three tallies where it has previously reached No. 1. It's also the ranking where Jagged Little Pill has spent the most time, as it's now up to 225 frames — more than the length of time it spent on the other two rosters combined.
Jagged Little Pill has previously cracked the top 10 on the downloads list, peaking at No. 6, while it's only ever soared to No. 15 on the general ranking of the most-purchased sets and full-lengths throughout the U.K.

The Best American Whiskeys—According To The New Orleans Spirits Comp
Glass of whisky with ice, sitting on the American Flag. getty American whiskey is experiencing a thrilling renaissance—an era defined by innovation, experimentation, and a revival of classic styles. Distillers across the country are embracing bolder grain bills, alternative cask finishes, and regional identities to craft whiskeys that rival the complexity and character of the world's finest spirits. This year's top-scoring whiskeys showcased the category's remarkable diversity—from fruit-laced corn whiskeys and cask-strength Tennessee whiskey to American single malts. Nowhere is this creative momentum more evident than at the 2025 New Orleans Spirits Competition (NOSC). Held in conjunction with the renowned Tales of the Cocktail festival, the NOSC brought together a distinguished panel of judges and a global slate of entries, reaffirming its status as a premier stage for the best in contemporary distilling. Crafted in Waco, Texas, Balcones Lineage is a bridge between traditional Scotch-style single malt production techniques and the bold influence of Texas terroir. The whiskey is made from a blend of Scottish Golden Promise and Texas-grown barley and is aged in a combination of virgin and refill oak barrels under the intense Texas climate. This whiskey was picked as Best in Class Whiskey at the 2025 NOSC. The whiskey features aromas of sweet, cooked malt/cereal, apple, toasted oak, apricot, and a faint mineral note. It's rich and malty on the palate, showcasing flavors of dried dark fruit, nutmeg, roasted pecan, malted milk, and baking spices with a balance between sweetness and oak dryness. The finish is long and drying with gentle tannins, cocoa, cooked grain, and stewed orchard fruit. Starlight Distillery, located on the Huber family farm in southern Indiana, blends six generations of agricultural heritage with small-batch whiskey production. Their blackberry-flavored whiskey is part of a broader range of fruit-infused spirits, crafted using fresh local produce and aged bourbon or corn whiskey as a base. The whiskey features aromas of fresh blackberry jam, accompanied by notes of vanilla, honey, and hints of baking spices. It's rich and flavorful on the palate, with flavors of ripe blackberry compote, sweet corn whiskey, and subtle notes of clove and cinnamon. The natural fruit character is vibrant without being overly sweet. The finish is medium length, with a lingering blackberry tartness, seasoned oak, and a whisper of caramel. Uncle Nearest is a tribute to Nathan 'Nearest' Green, the formerly enslaved man who taught Jack Daniel the art of whiskey-making. The brand has quickly become one of the most awarded in American whiskey, particularly renowned for its single-barrel releases, each offering a unique character. Batch 3633 is drawn from a hand-selected cask, bottled at cask strength. The whiskey is bold and complex, featuring aromas of brown sugar, ripe banana, saddle leather, and toasted marshmallow. It's full-bodied and spicy on the palate, showcasing flavors of caramel, molasses, dark chocolate, cinnamon, and toasted oak. A touch of stone fruit emerges mid-palate. The finish is long, sweet, and powerful with lingering notes of wood spices, dried tobacco leaf, char, smoke, and a peppery close.

Produced under the Bottled-in-Bond Act, this 100-proof, straight corn whiskey must be at least 80% corn and aged in used oak barrels. It's an old-school American whiskey, inexpensive yet flavorful and robust. The whiskey features aromas of sweet corn, vanilla custard, apple, and a hint of sourdough. It's creamy yet robust on the palate, showcasing flavors of buttered popcorn, toffee, fresh oak, banana, and lemon zest with an underlying, cooked, grain-forward richness. The finish is medium and slightly spicy with lingering notes of cornmeal, caramel, and charred wood. Stranahan's Diamond Peak, Barrel-Finished American Single Malt, 45% ABV, 750 ml. $80 Stranahan's, based in Denver, Colorado, was one of the first distilleries to pioneer the American single malt movement. This Diamond Peak expression is a limited-release bottling, crafted from 100% malted barley and finished in Caribbean rum casks. The exact finish varies from year to year by batch, adding an extra layer of intrigue. The whiskey boasts aromas of toasted malt, dried fig, cocoa, and vanilla, complemented by subtle notes of molasses and tropical fruit. It's bold and silky on the palate, showcasing flavors of dark chocolate, cherry cordial, espresso, tropical fruits, spice box, a hint of smoke, and toasted oak. The finish is long and fruity, with lingering notes of pepper, seasoned oak, tropical fruits, and cocoa. The 2025 NOSC highlighted the extraordinary breadth and quality of American whiskey today. Heritage brands continue to honor tradition while pushing the envelope, and craft distillers are fearlessly reimagining what whiskey can be—one barrel at a time. Whether through the lush depth of a rum cask finish, the raw power of single barrel Tennessee whiskey, or the layered elegance of an American single malt, these winning expressions reflect a category that is evolving with confidence and creativity. The future of American whiskey is not only bright—it's bold, boundary-breaking, and brimming with flavor. More From Forbes

London Fashion Week Unveils First Schedule Under New Strategy
This article originally appeared on Vogue Business. To receive the Vogue Business newsletter, sign up here. London Fashion Week's Spring/Summer 2026 edition marks a new era for the event—its first under recently joined British Fashion Council CEO Laura Weir. And the provisional schedule, released today, features some exciting events alongside the city's flagship brands, with the aim of creating more buzz and decentralizing British fashion. Running from September 18 to the 22nd, LFW will feature 18 percent more shows and presentations this season than the spring 2025 collections, according to the BFC. It comes just over a week after Weir announced her first moves in her new role, including scrapping fees for BFC members to show on-schedule. 'This season marks my first as CEO of the British Fashion Council, and 12 weeks into the role, I am pleased to announce an 18 percent increase in designers showing physically and digitally on-schedule,' said Weir in a statement today. 'My intention is to build on the foundations of LFW by focusing on cultural relevance, global competitiveness and meaningful support for designers. Last week, I announced some urgent strategic moves for September, which included waiving show fees for designer members showing physically on the main schedule and doubling the investment in the LFW guest programme to welcome more of the world's leading press, cultural commentators and buyers to the city. This season signals a designer-first approach to LFW that is ambitious, purposeful and rooted in the creative energy of London.' BFC Chief Exec Laura Weir Sets Out Vision For 'Next British Fashion Era' It's been 11 weeks since Weir stepped in to lead the organisation behind London Fashion Week and the Fashion Awards. Last night, she revealed her first moves. Burberry, Roksanda, Erdem, and Emilia Wickstead will return this season, joining the likes of small to mid-size labels Ahluwalia, Harris Reed, Labrum London, Marques Almeida, Paolo Carzana, Patrick McDowell, Richard Quinn, and Tove on the schedule. Elsewhere, BFC/Vogue Designer Fashion Fund winner Conner Ives—who found global fame with his 'Protect the Dolls' T-shirt in support of Trans Lifeline—will show in September for the first time (he normally only shows in London once a year, in February). Cult duo Chopova Lowena will stage their annual show, which has been a highlight of the September calendar since their runway debut in for SS23. Cheshire-born designer Talia Byre, whose presentation last season garnered a lot of editor praise, will make her runway debut.
