Amanda Leigh Moore, better known as Mandy Moore is a much loved singer and actress who rose to stardom with her debut single ‘Candy’ which made it to the Billboard Hot 100. She loved singing from her childhood and had performed the National Anthem at several events around her hometown. The experience of watching the musical ‘Oklahoma!’ made her realize that she wanted to be a singer. She was just fourteen when someone who knew her helped her sign a contract with Sony Music and thus the teenager’s first record ‘So Real’ was released. Having entered the music industry while still at school she opted to withdraw from school and continue her education through correspondence. Since she became a singing sensation as a teenager, she was often compared with other teen idols like Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. Her single ‘I Wanna Be With You’ became her first Top 20 hit on the Pop Songs chart. At the start of her career, she was often criticized for her ‘Bubblegum Pop’ sound though she gradually began incorporating a classier and sweeter sound into her music. After a successful beginning as a singer, the pretty young woman forayed into acting and became famous with her first starring role in the film ‘A Walk to Remember’. She appered in 'This Is Us' from 2016-2022, for which she bagged in two 'Screen Actors Guild Awards,' for 'Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in Drama Series. In 2019, she also earned a star on the 'Hollywood Walk of Fame.'
