This week, we’re rebroadcasting and expanding upon one of our
favorite Second Life episodes from the archives with Mandy
Moore.

It’s hard to believe that Mandy Moore has been in the public eye
for 20 years. That’s right, the singer, songwriter, and actresses’
hit song “Candy” hit the airwaves in 1999, solidifying her as a
full-on pop star. Moore went on to sell over a million copies of
her first album and tour with *NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys, which
lead to her on-screen debut in The Princess Diaries in 2001. Since
then, Moore has added a slew of film and TV gigs to her resume, as
well as six albums.

In 2016, Moore landed the role of  Rebecca Pearson in NBC’s
addictive hit show This Is Us, but Moore told Second Life host
Hillary Kerr that growing up in Florida, she wanted to be on
Broadway but ended up getting her start in music by singing the
National Anthem at local sporting events before, believe it or not,
being discovered by a FedEx delivery driver at the age of 15. 

Head to iTunes to subscribe to Second Life, and listen to this
episode to hear more about how Mandy Moore went from teenage pop
stardom to becoming the Emmy-nominated star of This Is Us, and
scroll to get a glimpse of her life these days via Instagram.
