Donegal woman lives dream as she sings ‘Ironic' on stage with Alanis Morissette at Malahide Castle gig
Ballyshannon's Gráinne Gillespie had the experience of a lifetime as she was brought on stage to sing live with Alanis Morrisette at her recent Malahide Castle gig on Sunday night. Gráinne, who is a dentist working at O Connor Moore Dental Practice in Sligo, sang and danced to a verse and chorus of the classic song 'Ironic' in front of thousands. Gráinne explained she was chosen at random from the crowd to join the Canadian-American star on stage. She then went backstage and met the production crew who she said were very kind and asked if she knew the words to the song. 'During the gig, I was singing and dancing when someone tapped me on the shoulder and asked if I would like to join Alanis on stage to sing Ironic. 'I asked if it was real around 100 times. 'It was so surreal. So Bizarre. 'It was the best thing I have ever experienced,' said Gráinne. Despite the nerves and excitement, Grainne did not look out of place on stage as she sang and danced with Alanis. Gráinne said the production crew had advised her to just enjoy the moment and take it all in so she let herself fully embrace the moment. 'When I was younger I was very into musicals and music but the older I got, the more self-conscious I became and I haven't been able to sing in a karaoke bar in years. 'I have no idea where it came from. I don't know if it was the adrenaline or nerves. 'I looked green before I went on and the production crew told me that the biggest regret of people who have been brought on is that they did not take in the moment when they were on stage and they did not enjoy it so I think that helped me. 'Alanis asked if I was okay and she was very engaging. She was smiling at me and nodding her head. 'She was really trying to bring me out of myself and then it felt like I was up there with my friends. 'I really don't know where the confidence came from. 'I did not watch the video until Tuesday but all the comments have been so lovely and the people of Ballyshannon are so supportive. 'It was like living my childhood dream. I will be living off that moment for the rest of my life,' said Gráinne. Gráinne has been a massive fan of the singer since she was a teenager and she had attempted to see her live previously but had no luck. 'I got really into her music when I was around 15 or 16 so I have been listening to her for 13 plus years. 'It is every music fan dream to meet their favourites but to get the chance to sing along is just a pipedream. 'Never in a million years did I dream I would get to sing with her. 'I tried to go to the concert before in 2018 but I was out of the country. I had tickets in 2020 but it was cancelled because of Covid-19. 'She came back in 2022 but the gig was the day of my sister's wedding so I could not go. 'I was so happy to finally get a chance to see her live. I really struggled to get tickets this time so I was delighted to actually get them,' said Gráinne.
