Moore seems to buy her own non-celebrityness so genuinely, you start to believe her. Maybe she's just a regular 22-year-old actress/model type strolling the steroidally consumerist streets of SoHo like all the other actress/model types here, drinking coffee and window-shopping. There is something weirdly normal about her, tucked into her North Face parka with the faux-fur collar ("I could never wear fur, never"), her striped scarf trailing over her shoulder. Maybe it's that Orlando, Florida, breeding. Or that the Mandy Moore persona hasn't yet fully penetrated the grown-up world—her cultural input has thus far been mostly via bubblegum pop and pubescent tearjerkers such as A Walk to Remember, released in 2002. Maybe it's her normal human proportions; she doesn't have the extreme alien beauty that supermodels and Uma Thurman have.

"Mandy is obviously drop-dead gorgeous," says Diane Keaton, who plays her mother in the upcoming film Because I Said So. "She's America's beautiful girl, with this open face and this open heart. But she looks like a regular person. Like a really, really pretty regular person. I couldn't take my eyes off her."
