Mandy Moore is in a phase of life where she isn’t afraid to speak her mind, as evidenced by her candid conversation with CBS’ Luke Burbank. Moore rehashed a lot of her history in the transparent chat, alluding to how a past relationship stunted her creativity. “I just felt like I was at a point in my life where I was the most comfortable making myself the least priority, and I made myself as small as possible in order to make someone else comfortable,” she said in a preview of the segment. She continued, “There was so much to unpack, it really destroyed my relationship to music. It destroyed – oh now, I’m gonna get emotional – it destroyed my sense of self. It destroyed my belief in who I was, as a musician and as a singer.”
The actor was previously married to musician Ryan Adams from 2009 to 2016, but we’re not sure if she named him directly in the interview as of this writing. However, Moore has spoken out against Adams in the past, telling The New York Times in February 2019 that “music was a point of control” for the “Dirty Rain” singer. “He would always tell me, ‘You’re not a real musician, because you don’t play an instrument,'” she claimed.
Fortunately for Moore, she was able to regain her sense of confidence and is now enjoying a musical renaissance.
