Early years

Mandy Moore (full name - Amanda Leigh Mandy Moore) was born in the American city of Nashua, although she spent most of her childhood in Florida. Her father, Don, was as a pilot, while her mother, Stacey, was a reporter. There were two other children in the family - the sons Scott and Kyle. Her parents’ marriage eventually collapsed when Stacy announced her homosexuality. Her brothers are also gay.

The Moore family is of mixed origin: among their ancestors, there are representatives of Native Americans, as well as English, Irish and Russian Jewish descent. Mandy was raised in the Catholic faith, but parents did not particularly insist on her adherence to religious traditions.

In addition to school, Moore attended singing lessons. She began performing at sporting events, singing the anthem at the openings. Parents believed that Mandy's passion for music and the stage was just a hobby, but her grandmother believed in her granddaughter's talent and helped her follow her dream. From the age of twelve Mandy started going to a theatre camp and played several roles in small productions.

Musical career

Moore had to finish school remotely because she was offered by a record company to work on a solo album. While the songs were selected, she toured first with N'SYNC, and then with Backstreet Boys.
Mandy Moore – Candy
The first single of the singer was the song Candy, released in 1999. The beginning of her career was accompanied by two curious phenomena: her records made money and stirred the interest of the public but were mercilessly criticized by music critics. The genre of pop music chosen by the label was not quite Moore’s cup of tea, but she could not refuse such a tempting contract. Mandy's main audience was teenagers, and the themes of her songs, one way or another, had to do with love and other experiences related to the process of growing up. Later on, Mandy herself made unflattering comments on her first two albums.

The third album, released in 2002, was Mandy Moore’s attempt to find her own sound. The critics received it more favorably, but it wasn’t much of a success in the charts. Later on, Moore recorded another three albums with some interruptions, her last album being released in 2009.

Cinema and television career

Mandy made her debut in a full-length movie in the film The Princess Diaries (2001), where she played the rival of Anne Hathaway’s heroine. Prior to that, Moore managed to work on the dubbing of one of the characters in the comedy Dr. Dolittle 2 (2001) with Eddie Murphy in the main role.

Her main role in the teenage melodrama A Walk to Remember (2002) was successful in all respects. Mandy’s partner was Shane West, and their on-screen novel became a favorite with the audience. The actress received the Teen Choice Awards for participating in this project, as well as the Young Hollywood Award for the entirety of her achievements. On the set, Mandy's musical talent came in really handy: she sang several songs for the film herself, including one of the main tracks Only Hope.
