mandy moore Mandy Moore isn’t a size zero because she’s “not 14 anymore”.

The ‘I Wanna Be With You’ singer is trying to embrace her “womanly curves”, but can’t help being disappointed when she looks in a full-length mirror.

She said: “I’m not a swizzle stick – I’m not 14 anymore.

“I appreciate when there are other women out there who are beautiful and aren’t, you know, a pound. I feel lucky that I don’t feel pressure to have my whole life be controlled by whether I fit into a certain size.”

Despite being happy with her size, Mandy – who married alternative rocker Ryan Adams in March – isn’t a fan of certain parts of her body.

She said: “I still have a love-hate relationship with my hips.”

Mandy – whose new album ‘Amanda Leigh’ is due to be released later this year – insists even celebrities don’t look good all the time.

She explained to People magazine: “When you’re a star, you have professionals who make you look a certain way. I can’t roll out of bed and look that way.

I’m very comfortable with the way that I look, but it’s not fair for women to use someone or something as a bar. It’s not reality, for anyone. I am happy to be myself and represent something different for women.”
