A singer-actress who discovered her innate talents from a very young age, Mandy Moore has been gracing our airwaves and screens for nearly two decades. Though she became aware of her purpose early in life and began honing her skills at a cognate institution, Moore later ditched formal education, a decision that has since paid off.
The singer’s sweet and melodious voice has not only earned her a place among industry bigwigs but has also brought huge paychecks her way.
