There are parallels between the music and film worlds, but they're really very different. I feel like they're just two different ways to channel my creativity.

I consider myself to be a romantic person, and I love the idea of having a soul mate.

I've always felt support from my guy. Absolutely. That's what being in a balanced, healthy relationship is all about, is being able to support one another.

I write a lot on airplanes actually because it's completely isolating; there's no one to talk to, there's nothing to do.

I do find it bizarre that people find it bizarre that I've grown up.

I'd say the key to a good relationship is communication .

When I was first starting out in the music industry, I was always coupled in the same sentence with Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera - and I was probably the worst of them. I think a lot of people back then thought, 'Mandy Moore... she'll probably go back to where she came from in a year.'
