Mandy Moore The "Wild Hope" era is over. The album has sold 100,000+ in the USA and little more worldwide with it's Aussie release this month (FEB). Mandy is currently on tour with Kelly Clarkson and will be headlining a couple of shows in the near future. She did a national "Wild Hope" tour in the US that sold out multiple dates (one of which I attended). Mandy stated in a Myspace blog that she is writing for the new record, and is ready to record very soon. As far as we know, she is remaining with "The Firm Records" despite they're inability to have released the second single, or promote fully.
Moore came to fame in 1999 when she released her debut album "So Real" that has since gone platinum in the USA. Since then she has released "I Wanna Be With You", "Mandy Moore", "Coverage", "The Best Of", and most recently "Wild Hope". She has sold over 8,000,000 records worldwide, and multiple top ten singles worldwide, especially in Asia and Austrailia. Her acting career has become even more successful, starring in box office successes such as "A Walk to Remember", "Chasing Liberty", the critically acclaimed "Saved", and most recently "Because I Said So", and "License to Wed" among others. She has also released a successful clothing line called "M.Blem"...[/i] All Albums: "So Real" produced hit's such as "Candy" and "Walk Me Home" and "I Wanna Be With You" produced the top 30 hit of the same name."Mandy Moore" produced singles such as "In My Pocket", and the hit "Crush" as well as "Cry" and "Coverage" produced the single "Have a little Faith in Me"."The Best Of" produced no singles, but was a fan favorite and "Wild Hope" produced the single's "Extraordinary" and "Nothing That You Are".Movie List: Magic AL and the Mind Factory Princess Diaries Dr. Dolittle 2 A Walk to Remember How To Deal All I Want Chasing Liberty Saved!

Wild Hope was an amazing album! I hope that Mandy keeps heading in that direction of maturity. Pretty much all of the other former teenage pop stars have failed to grow up, Mandy on the other hand has done so and I wish that Hot AC and AC would give her more of a chance than they did last time. Hopefully she can pull at least a top 20 hit out of this next album. She is truly a genuine artist in both music and film. I wish her the best and I can't wait to hear some new material!!

For this next album she really needs to produce at least 2-3 songs that are HAC and/or AC hits. She obviously has almost no chance of cracking pop again but I think she could become a real HAC darling if she made the right kind of songs. But if she's staying with The Firm Records then I don't know about her chances... :(

Anyone know the dates that she will be playing with Kelly Down Under? Thanks! Want to make sure I look out for media. She is a beautiful, talented gal, and such a good voice. Wild Hope was one of my top albums of this past year.

Mandy sounds AMAZING in that video. A duet with Mandy feat. Kelly would be great.

She had NO PROMOTION. No second single. The Firm sucks as a label...

She had NO PROMOTION. No second single. The Firm sucks as a label... The idea of the label is actually quite good. For both the artist & the label. That doesn't really happen with others. She did promote, just not when it came down to her second single. It wasn't like they canceled the project because she was still tour and still was up until March, right? I honestly don't know what happened, but she def had the material to make this album a hit. "Nothing That You Are" needed a video, some radio play and some live performances. "Gardenia" should've followed with the same. And both should've been included on some TV shows. They were like MADE for Grey's Anatomy, LOL.

She needs a new label. And apparently, she is having problems with The Firm, and may have already left the label.
