Sweet Mandy

Amanda “Mandy” Leigh Moore was born in Nashua, New Hampshire, on April 10, 1984. She is the only daughter of Stacey, a former newspaper reporter and Don Moore, a pilot for American Airlines. She's of Irish, English, and Cherokee Indian descent. She has two brothers, Scott and Kyle. She grew up in Altamonte Springs, Florida, outside of Orlando. After seeing the musical “Oklahoma!”, she decided that she wanted to pursue a career in singing. As a child, she performed the National Anthem at several athletic events around her hometown of Orlando, Florida, and became known as the “National Anthem girl”. At her age of 14, while she was recording in a studio in Orlando, a Fed-Ex worker who happened to be passing through heard her and was interested in her talent. He happened to know someone at Sony as well. Mandy worked on cutting a demo and shortly thereafter signed a record deal with Sony Music. Her first album “So Real” was released in 1999. The album reached thirty-one on the U.S. Billboard 200 album chart, and was certified platinum in the U.S. Mandy reached mainstream at a younger age than Christina, Jessica and Britney though record sales are not up in the ranks of the said artists. She did five studio albums such as So Real, I Wanna Be with You, Mandy Moore, Coverage, and her latest Wild Hope.
Mandy is not only a singer but also an actress. She hosted a half-hour MTV talk show, The Mandy Moore Show, which resumed in the summer of 2001 under the title of Mandy. She had her first small role as the mean and popular cheerleader Lana Thomas opposite actresses Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews in the film The Princess Diaries. In 2002, she had her first starring role in a major feature film in A Walk to Remember, which co-starred Shane West. The film was moderately successful, establishing Mandy's status as lead actress. Although the film received negative reviews, Mandy received several positive notices for her performance. As a matter of fact, she won an award for “Breakthrough Female Performance” in MTV Movie Awards. She appeared in several films and her latest include Southland Tales and Dedication. She also appeared in some television series. She has modeled for Penshoppe in the Philippines, Coach handbbags in Japan, and was a spokesperson of Neutrogena. She was also a spokesperson for the Youth Programs of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. She considers herself spiritual, and has said that she does not think of herself as distinctly Catholic nor Christian. Sexy and hot Mandy wants to be a news reporter, but her biggest dream is to perform on Broadway someday.

Mandy Moore
Amanda Leigh "Mandy" Moore born April 10, 1984 in Nashua, New Hampshire, is an American pop singer and actress. She grew up in Florida and came to fame as a teenager in the early 2000s, after the release of her teen-oriented pop albums So Real, I Wanna Be with You, Mandy Moore, and Coverage. Moore has branched out into a film career, starring in 2002's A Walk to Remember and later appearing in the lead roles of other movies also aimed at teenage audiences. Two of her later films, American Dreamz and Saved!, were satires in which Moore portrayed darker characters than in her previous roles. Moore reached mainstream radio later and at a younger age than Simpson, Aguilera and Spears had, and was initially not as successful as they were, although So Real was certified platinum in the U.S. in early 2000 and sold nearly one million copies. Moore's debut teen-oriented pop hit single "Candy", which Yahoo! Movies described as "strangely provocative", peaked just outside the top forty on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and was certified gold. All Music Guide noted the single was "mediocre" and "typical", containing lyrics that described love "in terms of sugar treats".
n the basis that it was a remix album and not a true follow-up, with All Music Guide writing that its style was "trashier, flashier, gaudier, and altogether more disposable" than its predecessor. It peaked at number twenty-one on the Billboard 200, was certified gold in the U.S. and sold nearly 792,000 copies. The title track "I Wanna Be with You" was the album's only single and reached number twenty-four on the Hot 100, Moore's highest peak to date. It was also featured on the soundtrack of the film Center Stage (2000).
