M-squared

You gotta give the girl credit - our favorite Bubblicious-teen-bombshell-turned-folksie-arty-songwriter Mandy Moore has reinvented herself quite successfully. Her last album, Wild Hope, wasn't too shabby (best track is "Most of Me - download it, if you haven't already) and she has another anti-pop record coming out next month.

The first single "I Can Break Your Heart Any Day of the Week" showcases, among other things, Ms. Moore's ability to list all the days of the week in chronological order. The video is, how shall I put this...odd?? But the song is quirky and catchy. Excited to hear the rest of the album.

Can we also take a minute to discuss her recent nuptials to Mr. Heartbreaker himself, Ryan Adams? First of all, I was a little shocked that I didn't get an invite. Secondly, it is my "only hope" that her good hygiene habits wear off on him. I'm around male musicians a lot, and I'll be honest, they're not the most cleanly group. But nevertheless, whether MM is wearing a Walk-to-Remember-schoolmarm-frock or her hubby's skinny jeans, it's safe to say that she gets the Hepburn stamp of approval.
