Rumor: Mandy Returning to Pop?

Posted by: Kevin

I don't normally turn to gossip sites for news, but Celebrity-Gossip had some interesting words regarding Mandy's career. The word they use is "retooling" in reference to her halted career, which I tend to agree with at this point.

Every since her guest spot on How I Met Your Mother and the barrage of movies in 2007 as well as her recently released album, Mandy hasn't had much going on since then. There have been no newly released movie or TV projects, which means any appearance on the small and big screen likely won't occur until late 2008 at the earliest.

As for her music career, there has been some speculation over a new album that Mandy is rumored to be working on. However, if she is working on one, it won't be under The Firm the music label responsible for Wild Hope. The two broke their ties in a story that may be related to what Celebrity Gossip states as Mandy being "ready to return to her pop roots." The first step to the transition is to find a new label, news that should be publicized once Mandy secures a contract. We'll also keep our fingers crossed about any new movie projects Mandy has in the works. In the meanwhile, enjoy the pictures.

Mandy Mentioned in C Magazine

Posted by: Kevin

C Magazine briefly mentioned Mandy in one of the pages of its April issue. Ed has scanned us a copy of the page showing Mandy in a pose with One Tree Hill's Sophia Bush.

As for the gallery... despite my efforts to prevent my gallery from being hacked, someone still managed to tamper with it. The original theme I had setup is now gone (although that was mostly my fault), so I am using a temporary theme for the time being. Everything else in the gallery should be working as it normally does.

Mandy Visits the Philippines

Posted by: Kevin

Pocholo Concepcion of Inquirer Entertainment wrote an article on Mandy's recent visit to the Philippines:

Listening to the song, a very affecting confessional of troubled love set to folk and jazz strains, we understood the connection Moore must have felt.

Another cover, Cat Stevens’ “Moon Shadow” (also from “Coverage”), reflected her earnest desire to be able to write songs with strong imagery in a folk-rock vein. The spare music from a keyboardist who switched from electric to baby grand piano and a Fil-Am guitarist bolstered it throughout the show, even as the lyrics in her current work could use a little more improvement.

Mandy Blogs on Australia & Her Future

Posted by: Kevin

After Mandy Moore completes her current trip to Australia, she will make a brief stop in Manila, which I'm sure is a thrill for her fans in the Philippines. Mandy stated in her most recent blog post that when she returns to the United States, she is looking to get back to work:

Happy to come home after this trip and really dig into some film projects i've had my eyes on now that everything is back up in motion. I am so ready to get back to work in terms of writing my next record, recording some demos and hopefully locking in a compelling and challenging film project.

You can read the full blog post here and a small article on the post.

Posted by: Kevin

This understandably has been a slow news period given that Mandy Moore has not signed on for any new projects yet. Part of that is due to Mandy's break, another may relate to the writers strike.

Video: 2003 MadTV Appearance

Posted by: Kevin

Comedy Central aired a repeat this morning of Mandy's appearance on MadTV from more than 3 years ago. Rusty from "This N' That With Rusty" interviewed Mandy and for those of you that remember Rusty, his interviews are about as predictable as the current stock market. Also, Mandy with short hair brings back some memories.

Romance & Cigarettes Out In Select Theaters

Posted by: Kevin

Producer John Turturro has continued to promote his 2-year old film and his latest releases have brought a new wave of reviews. Based on the reviews, it looks like Romance & Cigarettes opened today in Salt Lake City and in Pittsburgh. Turturro has released the film in certain cities in the United States throughout the past 3 months with the final wave coming next week. To see the full schedule, click here. Here are some reviews from today:

Garrett Conti of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

The deviation from conventional Hollywood is a breath of fresh air, as Turturro, who directed and penned the screenplay, gives moviegoers something far removed from gun fights, second-rate romantic comedies or repetitious fantasy pieces.

Sean P. Means of the Salt Lake Tribune

They each pour out their hearts through song. Nick leads a dancing cadre of Film Finder garbagemen and cops in a lament about what women want, while Kitty belts out Janis Joplin's "Piece of My Heart" in the choir loft.

Others get into the act. Nick and Kitty's three daughters - played by Mary-Louise Parker, Aida Turturro and Mandy Moore - have formed a backyard punk band, with a crooning neighbor (Bobby Cannavale) sometimes singing lead. When Kitty's cousin Bo (Christopher Walken) arrives to help, he's singing Elvis Presley's "Trouble," with the King's vocals playing alongside Walken's.

And finally, a darker review from Jeff Vice of the Deseret Morning News

Screenwriter-director John Turturro spends so much time exploring this love triangle that he neglects various supporting characters. Mandy Moore, Mary-Louise Parker and Aida Turturro are one-note caricatures as Nick and Kitty's daughters, and Eddie Izzard is an afterthought as a church-choir organist.

2007 Poll Results: Mandy's Best Traits

Posted by: Kevin

It was pretty much the poll of 2007 for the Mandy Moore Effect because it lasted so long. Just look at the colors. One of the reasons was the huge response to this poll. Here's how fans responded to the question: What do you like best about Mandy Moore?

While it seems Mandy Moore gets hotter with age, her personality led most of the way with over half the votes. That could have something to do with staying out of trouble and her belief that she was the odd girl out in the blond pop singer explosion of the late 90s, which she stated during her hour-long visit with Tyra Banks in late November. I will be releasing that interview over the next couple of days courtesy of Ed.

Good Morning America did a segment with Mandy Moore that Ed sent to me back in November. Sorry for the delay man. Despite the short interview, Mandy did acknowledge why she insisted on having more power over her album: "I think most people at this point were sort of unaware that I was still singing...that kind of allieviated a lot of the pressure and I knew because of that I wasn't going to compromise and I really was gonna make the record I wanted to make."
