She is a blonde pop music-marketing creation. Mandy was in the second generation of blonde "Lolita" popstars following Britney and Christina. She's originally from Orlando, also the hometown of N'Sync and the Backstreet Boys. (Note to Orlando: I hate you.)

To be quite honest, she isn't hard to look at -- let's just hope she gets some talent to go with her looks. If she doesn't I can see the Behind the Music special now:

"With her music career on the decline, Mandy decides to try to make it in the movies... she has limited success until she meets Ron Jeremy."
