"You can lose yourself in the work that she's doing and you're not sort of sitting there, thinking about her life and what she ate for breakfast," she said of the Oscar-winning actress. "Unfortunately, there are those celebrities — and it's not their fault, but you can't really detach yourself from their persona. And it works to their detriment, you know?"
(Cough. Lindsay Lohan. Cough cough.) Indeed, while her famous peers are in rehab or freshly sprung from jail, Moore lays low and out of the tabloids — except for her relationships. The lyrical content of "Wild Hope" has set off speculation that Braff was the inspiration; Moore claims "it's not about one specific person."
Had Braff shown up during her intimate set of "Wild Hope" songs at a well-known music venue — the one where she expressed her distaste for the male sex, as Laswell and her father sat in the audience — he might have been the recipient of dirty stares. Moore laid it all out there in the final number, "Gardenia," a stripped-down, wrenching ballad that speaks to her evolution from child pop star to serious artist.
"I'm the one who likes to make love on the floor," she sings. "I don't want to hang up the phone yet; It's been good getting to know me more."
