April 20, 2003 - Mandy Moore
chatted with Blender about her fourth album 'Coverage', which takes her
in a different musical direction, something she apparently wanted to do
all along. "It felt like everyone I was working with on my other albums
was against me," she said. "I didn't like the songs [from my last album]."
The new album sees her cover music from before she was born, such as 'Drop
the Pilot' by Joan Armatrading and 'Whole of the Moon' by the Waterboys.
"The idea was to present these songs in a way my age group can relate to,"
she said.
April 16, 2003 - Last night's
episode of 'Fake I.D. Club Junior' saw Mandy Moore needing some help from
her mom with that first hookup with her current beau tennis star Andy Roddick.
"I had seen Andy's picture in magazine," Mandy explained. "And thought
he was cute. And so I wanted to go meet him. I figured while I was up there
they were having a tennis tournament." But she had to enlist her mother
to make the first move. "I was working that day and I sent her to one of
his matches. I said, you bring him, you bring Andy back to the set with
you because I want to meet him." Mandy's mom said, "Great, like he's going
to want to meet some old fart." But mom's cupid attempt paid off. "We really
hit it off after my mom brought him to me and we've been dating ever since.
I was the ballsy chick for once."

writes on Mandy Moore's official message board: "Hey Guys, I saw some of
you wondering if Mandy was really posting at a different message board:
hostboard.com/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum;f=1986 Well, there answer is NO!
It was shut down by the Host Board Administration. They wrote a message
saying, 'It was shut down because they frauduently mis-represented the
person the board was intended for.' They also said, 'We publically apologize
for any harm done from these message board owners.' And great news, hostboard.com
said to go to mandymoore.com for the offical board. By the way, these liers
have started a new board, saying it is supported by Mandy! And they said
the old board was hacked into... unreal!"
