ANNE LOVES MANDY

I notice that almost everyone is moving in slow gear these past few weeks. I'm not spared from this affliction too, mostly due to being holed up at work, I can't think straight from this cluttered mind of mine.

So here's another self-indulgent post about how much I love Mandy Moore. Inspired by pinky's post about her penchant for sappy love stories.



I used to HATE her when she first came out with "Candy", and LOVED Britney instead with her "Hit Me Baby" video. I accused her of being the slutty wannabe who couldn't carry a tune (when in actuality, I envy her blond locks, stick thin figure & perfect skin)

But as time went by, she earned my respect by belting out acceptable tunes like the song above, ditched that annoying bubble-gum image & played a range of characters rather convincingly in her movies. I began to carry a torch for Mandy, particularly because I think she has a good head on those shoulders & a different persona from all the other former pop-princesses of the early 2000s (erm, maybe her wholesome image is more believable than Britney's)

I see that she carries herself well too, especially in interviews and some shows I saw she hosted. She seems real & doesn't have those superstar air about her.

This can be considered as a personal meme, a pointless rambling. But, I'm doing this for fun. So, who's your favourite pop princess? Sapa rajin, sila jawab :)

My fav pop princess, back in the 80s was Madonna. She is now the Queen, of course.

It may sound harsh, but I feel it is appropriate... I would still be using 'dislike' if not for Miss Britney, who transformed from the nice girl next door to the leather tights Madonna kissing woman (just before she marry K-Fed). That crushed my faith in Pop Princesses... huhu... quite traumatic (or dramatic) for me.
