February 26, 2003 - Mandy
Moore gave fans an update on what she's been up to recently. She told fans
on her official website on Tuesday, "Last week was crazy. This week is
shaping up to be crazy. Help me lol! Looks like the next couple of months
are going to be mayhem. Who knows? When it rains, it pours i guess. It
seems like just yesterday that I was complaining of restlessness and the
need to get 'working' again. I was bored with staying at home and only
recording. Well, to fill
you in: last week I shot a big InStyle magazine piece, the cover of Seventeen,
hours of ADR for 'How to Deal' (glad you guys are liking the trailer by
the way), a charity meet and greet, daily recording, meetings with directors,
auditions (which terrify me --- I just came home from one for a BIG MOVIE),
and trying to drag my butt to the gym everyday." And it doesn't stop there.

woke up to watch him on ESPN at 2 AM!"

to a fan who happens to be in the Army hoping she'd support perform for
the troops, the singer did express interest in supporting the servicemen.
"You and all who serve in the armed services are in my thoughts and prayers
daily," Mandy said. "And on that thought, I would love nothing more than
to do a concert for the armed forces... Hell, I would love to do any performance
in gereral at this point. I'm itching to get back on stage. I'm going to
talk to those in charge and see what happens." Read more.

February 10, 2003 - The cruel
comments from Mandy Moore fans on her official site continued this weekend
with a "fan" -- who has over 4,000 posts on the forum -- stating: "Mandy,
now that your music career is dwindling, your movie career failed to make
the big splash as you hoped for, and with your ignorance and inconsiderate
words have alienated some of your more hardcore fans. Do you have any plans
on leaving the spotlight behind and go make something of yourself and start
higher education, so you can actually make useful of yourself?" Mandy responded,
"How can people say such hateful things? What does that accomplish? How
does it make you feel? Although some of you assume I think so highly of
myself... believe me: words hurt. I never meant to anger anyone and hurt
anyone's feelings.... Especially people that work hard on this board like
Ms. Angela. I've simply read too many posts like this, Ben, that make me
want to tell my side of the story." Read her full comments and others'
responses here.

February 8, 2003 - Mandy
Moore responded to a fan's inquiry about the status of her new album. Mandy
said, "Hmmm lucky I was lurking 'round here to find just the question I
wanted to address... I'm sure by now you all have heard about the 'concept'
of the new album. In my opinion... It's very exciting and I don't regard
it as a 'mistake' as some of you have referred to it as. Believe me, it
was a very thought-out idea and eventually choice. I'm sure many of the
songs we have recorded, some/most of you haven't heard of before. anywho...
We have 9 songs done at this time. I've been in the studio for the past
6 days and done 1, sometimes 2 songs a day. One Cat Steven's song was done
in 40 minutes... Hehe. I LOVE the way the record sounds at this point...
Fluid, yet every song has a different and concise direction... Jazzy, acoustic,
70's funk, etc... Can't wait to get you some samples. until then.... We'll
see ya." Read more.
