When you think of Mandy Moore, you think of the sweet actress we watch ever week on This Is Us. Turns out, she is not that innocent.
Yesterday, on The Tonight Show she played Password against Jimmy Fallon and Shaquille O’Neal. When it came time for the second clue, Shaq gave the NBC host the clue, “hump,” and he did not get it. Then Moore said to Noah Cyrus, “toe.” and she got it immediately. Did you get it?
Who would have thought she would go there, but she did and it was freaking brilliant. As brilliant as her performances each week as Rebecca Pearson. I do not care what anyone says, she is the best one on the show and they are all really excellent.
Talking about being great on show, they need to book on her Michael Strahan’s Pyramid because she is really good at these type of game shows.
The producers from This Is Us got a scary phone call late last night when Mandy Moore told them she had a run in with a shower door handle and lost. The show’s matriarch not only got her first black eye, she also received her first stitches. That means they are going to have to cover up her bruising while they are filming her, which might not be that easy if they are shooting scenes from the ’70s and ’80s. But it will be a lot easier to make disappear if they are filming her in modern day because the older makeup and glasses will hide the swelling.
While it is not that easy to hide a black eye, it is very easy to put one on. Here is Milo Ventimilgia, makeup artist Zoe Hay and Michael Reitz donning fake ones in honor of Rebecca’s real one! If that does not say love, I do not know what does.
We do not know how Jack dies on This Is Us, but Mandy Moore confessed on Larry King Now that the main cast including her do know how he will meet his maker during the first episode of the second season.
Then she explained to the Ora TV host, “We all had to know. If you think about it, all of the core actors sort of had to know…because something that fundamentally earth shattering and life changing that happened to the kids at some point in their lives is something they are going to carry with them as adults.”
Therefore, if you cannot wait until September to find out how Jack dies and you see one of the actors in the streets, then stop and ask them because they know. If they do not tell you, then try treating them to some drinks at a nearby bar to see if they will share their knowledge with you. Although, isn’t more fun to see it for yourself instead of being spoiled? Says someone who likes to be spoiled!
Have you been waiting to find out how Jack died on This Is Us, and disappointed that we didn’t find out before the season finale? You aren’t alone, today when Mandy Moore was on Today, Sheinelle Jones just had to know when we are going to find that out. Rebecca Pearson told them that they go back to work on the beloved drama in six weeks, and then she said revealed to them, “I have been told that early on, in the season, that there will be, perhaps, be some answers.”
There you have it, I think. Because that didn’t say much or did it? We will find out when the show returns Tuesdays starting in September.
Yesterday was the season finale of This Is Us and many fans of the show were expecting to find out how Jack died. We found out a lot during the season finale about him, but we did not find out why the patriarch of the family is not around during the modern day timeline. Because of this a lot of fans were upset and Mandy Moore has something to tell them. She said on Instagram, “And for those somehow frustrated with the finale not revealing how Jack passed, I would encourage patience. Otherwise you might be watching the wrong show.” Then explained why, “Last night was fundamental to the bigger picture. The story deviated and ultimately landed on (I think) a more compelling question… what was the state of this relationship in the end? And as Milo so eloquently stated, let’s focus on how the man lived! Stay tuned cause it’s all leading somewhere and we’re just getting started.” Can’t wait to see where they go next with this drama because it has been an hour of groundbreaking television that always leaves you wanting more.
She also talked about TV husband Milo Ventimiglia, “I stand in awe of this friend of mine. He is the ultimate partner in crime and he absolutely knocked it out of the park on every level in last night’s finale. I am the luckiest.” Now we know why their make believe love seems so real because it is.
If you really want something to be sad about, just think we are 6 months away until we get a new episode of This Is Us!
