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.

Why do I, Mandy Moore, get a record deal?

I don't cook very well at all. I'm the girl that can't make scrambled eggs.

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 tend to be really competitive when it comes to Scattergories.

It's important to get well-rounded right off the bat. A lot of experienced dancers can get pigeonholed into one thing. I've been hired for a lot of different gigs simply because I can do a lot of different things with different levels of dancers. And it's sad to me that some dancers don't do more.

I guess at a certain point you think, well, singing is singing and acting is acting.
