Amanda Leigh "Mandy" Moore (born April 10, 1984) is an American
singer-songwriter, actress and fashion designer. Moore became famous as
a teenager in the late 1990s, after the release of her teen pop albums
So Real, I Wanna Be with You, and Mandy Moore. In 2007, she took an
adult pop-folk direction with the release of Wild Hope. Her most recent
album, Amanda Leigh, was released on May 26, 2009.[3] Moore has sold
more than 10 million records worldwide.[4] Moore subsequently branched
out into film, starring in 2002's A Walk to Remember and later in other
movies, such as Chasing Liberty, Saved! and License to Wed. Most
recently Moore provided the voice of Rapunzel in Tangled. In April 2011,
she ranked 5th in People's annual Most Beautiful issue.[5]

Early life
Moore was born in Nashua, New Hampshire. Her mother, Stacy (née Friedman), is a
former news reporter who once worked for the Orlando Sentinel, and her father,
Donald "Don" Moore, is a pilot for American Airlines.[6][7][8] Moore's father is
of Irish and Cherokee descent, and her mother is of half English and half Jewish
ancestry.[9][10] Moore, who has an older brother Scott and a younger brother
Kyle, grew up in Longwood, Florida, outside of Orlando, where the family moved
shortly after her birth because of her father's job as an airline pilot.[11] She
was raised Catholic (though she is no longer practicing),[12] and attended
Bishop Moore High School,[13] in Orlando, as well as Lake Brantley High School
in Altamonte Springs.
Moore's interest in singing grew after seeing the musical Oklahoma!.[citation
needed] She was also encouraged to perform by her English-born maternal
grandmother, who was her inspiration.[10] Some of Moore's first public exposure
occurred when she sang the national anthem at several Florida sporting
events.[citation needed] She subsequently came to the attention of the head of
the artists and repertoire department at Epic Records after his friend, a FedEx
employee, overheard her as she sang at a recording studio.[14]
Music career
1999–2002
So Real
Moore toured with N'SYNC throughout the first half of 1999.[11] Her debut album,
So Real, was released in December 1999 and reached No.31 on the U.S. Billboard
200 album charts.[15] Unfortunately for her image, at the time of the album's
release, reviewers considered Moore the latest in a series of heavily-marketed
female teen singers described as "pop princesses," akin to Britney Spears and
Christina Aguilera.[16] Entertainment Weekly Magazine's review of So Real,
written by Elizabeth Vincentelli, accused Moore's songs of revolving around
"not-yet-experienced love," of having been performed with "suffocating
professionalism," and called the album's ballads "nauseating."[17]
Moore reached mainstream radio later, and at a younger age, than Aguilera and
Spears had, and she was initially not as successful as they were. However, So
Real was still certified platinum in the U.S. in early 2000 and sold nearly one
million copies.[18] Moore's debut teen-oriented pop hit single "Candy," which
Yahoo! Movies described as "strangely provocative,"[7] peaked just outside the
top 40 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100[19] charts, and was certified gold.[15] The
single was more successful in Europe, especially in the UK, where it reached
number 6.[citation needed] Allmusic called the single "mediocre" and "typical,"
containing lyrics that described love "in terms of sugar treats."[20]
I Wanna Be with You
Moore released I Wanna Be with You in May 2000.[21] The album, which was mostly
completed with synthesizers, bass, guitar, and drums[22] comprised new songs
alongside tracks and remixes from So Real. Several reviewers criticized it on
the basis that it was a remix album and not a true follow-up,[23][24] with
Allmusic accusing its style of being "trashier, flashier, gaudier, and
altogether more disposable" than that of So Real.[25] It peaked at No.21 on the
Billboard 200, was certified gold in the U.S., selling nearly 1,000,000
copies.[18] The title track, "I Wanna Be with You," was the album's only single
and reached No.24 on the Hot 100,[19] Moore's highest peak to date.[citation
needed] It was also featured on the soundtrack of the film Center Stage in
2000.[26]
Mandy Moore
In June 2001, Moore released her second full-length album, her third overall,
the self-titled album Mandy Moore. She promoted the album with her first
headlining concert, "Mandy Moore Live@ShoutBack."[citation needed] The album
contained uptempo tracks and influences from Eastern music,[27] and Allmusic
described it as a "lush, layered production."[28] It received mixed reviews from
other critics.[29] The album debuted at No.35 on the Billboard 200, and was
later certified gold in the U.S., selling 443,000 copies.[18] The lead single
was "In My Pocket," which Entertainment Weekly said contained "pumping, Indian
influenced Euro disco."[30] The album's follow-up single was titled "Crush." The
early 2002 release of the final single, "Cry", tied in with the film A Walk to
Remember, Moore's debut as a lead actress.[citation needed]
In 2006, Moore commented on her early albums, noting that although she believed
that her first album was appropriate for her age at the time when she released
it,[10][31] she felt it "sucked"[32] and that her first albums were "just
awful."[16] Moore also said that she "would give a refund to everyone who bought
my first two albums" if she could;[33] during a radio interview in April 2006,
the show's co-host—who had seen her comments—asked her for a refund on the first
album, a request that Moore fulfilled.[32]
2003–2006
In October 2003, Moore released her fourth album Coverage,[34] which Allmusic
characterized as a "leap to musical maturity"[35] and which Entertainment Weekly
called an "effort to shed her bubblegum-blond image".[36] The album peaked at
No.14 on the Billboard 200;[15] but "Have a Little Faith in Me" and "Senses
Working Overtime", its only two singles, did not perform well on the charts.[15]
Moore's cover of "I Feel the Earth Move" appeared on Love Rocks, a compilation
CD of songs from gay rights supporters.[37]
Due to creative differences between Moore and her label, a split was
announced.[citation needed] The company released the hits compilation album The
Best of Mandy Moore, which reached No.148 on the Billboard 200[38] in November
2004 as a final obligation to Moore's contract.[39] Another compilation, Candy,
followed in 2005. During this time period, the only music Moore had recorded was
a song demo, "Hey!", written by James Renald, and a cover version of Lori
McKenna's "Beautiful Man".[citation needed] Moore also voiced the character
"Nita" in the 2006 film, Brother Bear 2.
2007–2009
In early 2006, Moore stated that she missed her music career and that singing is
what she was the "most passionate about."[16] Moore had signed to Sire Records
after her contract with Epic Records ended, but she left the company in May
2006.[citation needed] She signed with a new EMI Music-owned record company, The
Firm, in July that year, describing her new contract as "especially
exciting,"[40] and adding that she left Sire Records because she did not want to
"follow the mainstream," but rather have "complete control and freedom" over her
work.[41] Moore's new album, Wild Hope, was released on June 19, 2007,[42] and
includes collaborations with artists Chantal Kreviazuk, Rachael Yamagata, Lori
McKenna and The Weepies.[43] Moore stayed alone in a house in Woodstock in
Upstate New York while recording the album in late 2006.[44] She performed new
material from Wild Hope at the Sundance Film Festival;[citation needed] her
first single, "Extraordinary," premiered on her MySpace profile on January 29,
2007.[citation needed] Moore performed the song at the Brick Awards on April 12,
2007[45] and launched a tour in the summer of 2007.[46]
The album was released in the USA in June 2007 to positive reviews.[citation
needed] It fared moderately well on the charts, debuting at number thirty on the
Billboard 200 (Moore's third highest charting album in the U.S.), and at number
84 in Canada.[citation needed] In August 2007, Moore toured with Paula Cole, and
Rachael Yamagata, playing at mid-size venues in the United States and
Canada.[citation needed] Wild Hope was placed at number 10 on Entertainment
Weekly's "The Must List" and also named Reader's Choice for that August 10
issue, two months after its release.[citation needed] Moore surprised many with
a free concert in Boston on July 18, 2007.[47]
On February 23, 2008, Moore released Wild Hope in Australia, and subsequently
toured with Ben Lee and the West Australian Symphony Orchestra in Western
Australia, supporting Kelly Clarkson on her tour.[citation needed] In October
2008, Moore posted on her website blog live videos of three new songs she's been
working on, along with singer-songwriter, pianist and guitarist Mike Viola. It
was at first expected to a be a duo album between the two, but then in January
2009, it was revealed it would be a solo album with a collaboration with him,
slated for release in April 2009.[48]
On June 2009, Moore performed 5 tracks of her new Amanda Leigh album, including
“Nothing Everything” and “Love To Love Me Back,” at the Walmart Soundcheck
show.[49]
In May 2009, she released her latest album, Amanda Leigh, to generally positive
reviews. Rolling Stone said about the album: "the title is taken from the
singer's real first and middle names, the acoustic instrumentation emits a cozy
campfire glow, and the album was recorded in a modest basement home studio.
Message: This is real music, not computerized starlet pop."[citation needed]
Time Magazine said that the album was "impeccably recorded."[citation needed] An
article on the album by Paper Magazine said, "Mandy (in the album)... shows real
thoughtful and emotional depth." Paper concluded that "Moore is a far better
musician than she's often given credit for."[50][51][52]
Moore has a total of singles sales in Australia of more than 241,000 copies, and
was ranked at # 281 on the 1000 artists chart of ARIA Music Decade Charts
(1980–2010).[53]
2010–present
In 2010, Moore voiced Rapunzel in Disney animation film Tangled and recorded
several songs for the soundtrack,[54] including the Oscar-nominated "I See the
Light",[55] which she performed live during the Oscar presentation in February
2011. She also stated that she is working on a new album to be released in the
end of 2011 or early 2012.[56]
Acting career
2000–2002
During the summer of 2000, Moore hosted a half-hour MTV talk show, The Mandy
Moore Show, which was renamed Mandy a year later.[57] Moore was also a
Neutrogena spokesperson, appearing in commercials and print ads for the
product.[7] She has modelled for Penshoppe in the Philippines,[citation needed]
Coach handbags in Japan,[58] and was a spokesperson for the School and Youth
Programs of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.[59] Her first acting role was in
the straight-to-video children's film Magic Al and the Mind Factory in which she
plays the character of Brittany Foster.[citation needed]
In 2001, Moore appeared in a small part as the mean and popular cheerleader Lana
Thomas opposite actresses Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews in the film The
Princess Diaries. During the film, Moore's character performs "Stupid Cupid," a
song from the film's soundtrack. She also had a voiceover role in Dr. Dolittle 2
as the Girl Bear Cub. In 2002, Moore had her first starring role in a major
feature film in A Walk to Remember, which co-starred Shane West. Based on the
novel by Nicholas Sparks, the film revolved around the developing romance
between a Protestant minister's daughter Jamie Sullivan (Moore) and an unruly
teenager Landon Carter (West). The film was moderately successful, bringing in
$41 million in the United States,[60] and establishing Moore's status as a lead
actress. Although the film received mainly negative reviews,[61] Moore received
several positive notices for her performance, with critic Roger Ebert calling
her "quietly convincing".[62] At that summer's MTV Movie Awards, Moore won an
award for "Breakthrough Female Performance" for the role.[63] The same year, she
voiced the Final Fantasy VII character Aerith Gainsborough in the Square-Disney
crossover video game Kingdom Hearts, was featured in the music video for Elton
John's "Original Sin", and was ranked number sixty-seven in Stuff magazine's
"102 Sexiest Women in the World".[64]
2003–2005
In 2003, Moore starred in the romantic comedy film How to Deal, which failed to
draw in teenage crowds in the U.S. and grossed a total of $14 million
domestically.[60] Her next film was 2004's Chasing Liberty, a romantic comedy
that grossed approximately $12 million.[60] Both films received negative
reviews;[65] however, Ebert once again singled Moore's performances out, noting
in his review of How to Deal that Moore has "an unaffected natural charm" and
"almost makes the movie worth seeing,"[66] and adding in his Chasing Liberty
review that she has "undeniable screen presence and inspires instant
affection."[67] Other critics described her as an "actress of limited
range,"[68] though one review of Chasing Liberty noted that she was the "most
painless of former pop princesses."[69] Later in 2004, Moore appeared in a lead
role in the religion satire Saved! in which she played Hilary Faye, a proper and
popular girl at a Christian school. The film was positively reviewed,[70] though
it did not receive a wide release. Moore received praise for her
performance,[71] with one critic calling her a "demented delight"[72] and
another naming it her best performance to date.[73] She sang a cover version of
The Beach Boys 1966 hit "God Only Knows," with Michael Stipe, that bookended the
movie.
In 2005, Moore lent her voice to the film Racing Stripes as Sandy the white
horse and appeared on the television series Entourage; she was also originally
scheduled to star in the films Cursed, Havoc, and The Upside of Anger, all of
which were eventually released in 2005 without Moore's involvement.[13]
2006–2007
In 2006, Moore guest-starred in two episodes of Scrubs: "My Half-Acre" and "Her
Story II". The same year, she lent her voice to The Simpsons, playing Tabitha
Vixx in the episode "Marge and Homer Turn a Couple Play".[74]
Moore also appeared in the film American Dreamz, which was released in April
2006. In the film, she played a deranged contestant on a television series
modeled after American Idol. Director Paul Weitz stated that he had Moore in
mind for the role before she was cast, explaining that "there's something
inherently sweet about Mandy; it makes it all the more interesting to see her in
a villainess role".[75] Moore has said that she enjoys playing mean-spirited
characters but fears being typecast as a villain.[76] American Dreamz opened at
number nine at the U.S. box office,[77] eventually totaling barely $7
million,[78] and received mixed reviews;[79] critic Owen Gleiberman of
Entertainment Weekly, however, wrote that Moore and co-star Hugh Grant have a
"wicked barbed chemistry" in their roles,[80] while Variety's Robert Koehler
said Moore's role was a "pitch-perfect study of a woman for whom a reality show
is reality".[81]
Later that year, in what ComingSoon.net's review described as a "surprisingly
good performance", Moore voiced Nita, the heroine of the Disney animated sequel
Brother Bear 2, which was released directly-to-DVD on August 29.[82] She was
also originally cast to appear in that year's ensemble film Bobby, but was
replaced by Mary Elizabeth Winstead.[83]
Moore, citing her conservative upbringing, has expressed dissatisfaction with
her appearance on a May 2006 cover of Cosmopolitan; the magazine's headline is
"orgasms unlimited", which refers to an article unrelated to her.[84] In her
movie following this, Because I Said So, co-starring Gabriel Macht, Lauren
Graham and Diane Keaton, Moore's character describes in detail the feeling of an
orgasm to her mother. It was released on February 2, 2007 and received mixed
reviews.[85] In License to Wed, Moore portrays a young bride-to-be who has to
complete a three-week prenup course before her wedding. Co-starring John
Krasinski as her fiance and Robin Williams as a priest, the film was released on
July 3, 2007 to mostly negative reviews. Nevertheless, Variety described Moore's
performance as "appealing."[86][87][88] In 2007, Moore returned to the small
screen in an episode of How I Met Your Mother entitled "Wait for It".
2009–present
After a break of almost two years from big screen roles, Moore filmed the
romantic comedy Swinging with the Finkels in the United Kingdom in 2009 for a
2011 release.[89] Moore also starred with actor Kellan Lutz in the 2010 film,
Love, Wedding, Marriage.[90][91] She was a guest star on the sixth season finale
of Grey's Anatomy on May 20, 2010, her first television role since 2007.[92] She
returned in a guest role for an episode of the show's seventh season.[citation
needed] Also that year, Moore voiced Princess Rapunzel in the CGI animated film
Tangled. Moore, alongside Zachary Levi, performed the film's theme song, "I See
the Light" at the 83rd Academy Awards where it was nominated for Best Original
Song.[93]
In October 2011, it was announced that she is set to star in an ABC comedy
titled Us and Them.[94]
Along with her voice role in the upcoming 2012 Tron: Uprising animated series,
she is also set to be the title character voice in the Disney Junior series
Oki’s Oasis.[95]
Fashion career
Moore branched into the fashion world in 2005 with her own fashion line named
Mblem., a brand of contemporary knitwear and cashmere. One of her aims was to
provide clothing for taller women (Moore herself is 5'10).[96] In February 2009,
Moore announced that the line would be shutting down, but that she hoped to
reenter the fashion world again under different circumstances in the future.[3]
Philanthropy
According to a press release from her own official website, Moore was involved
in teaming up with nonprofit organization PSI, and its subsidiary, Five and
Alive, in fighting malaria in Africa.[97]
According to USA Today, Moore was also involved in serving as the Honorary
Chairperson of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's division on awareness for
youth. She served as a spokesperson by helping young people be aware of the
seriousness of leukemia and lymphoma.[98] She also serves as the spokesperson
for Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, held every January.[99] In addition, to
increase cervical cancer awareness, Moore teamed up with Dr. Yvonne Collins, The
Gynecologic Cancer Foundation (GCF), and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK).[100]
Personal life
Her relationships with Adam Goldstein aka DJ AM, singer Billy Crawford, tennis
player Andy Roddick,[101] and actors Wilmer Valderrama[102] and Zach Braff,[103]
as well as her marriage to singer Ryan Adams, have become the subject of media
coverage. Moore and Adams were married on March 10, 2009, in Savannah.[104][105]
Moore has become a fan of mixed martial arts, often attending UFC events.[106]
As to her religious beliefs, Moore considers herself spiritual, and has said
that she does not think of herself as Christian.[12]
Reporters have mentioned that Moore has a slight lisp in her performances[107],
but Moore denied having one when asked by a fan on her official blog.[108]
