Lesley Moore

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lesley Catherine Moore (born 15 October 1986) is a Christian pop performer. She is the second oldest member of the Christian dance pop group Jump5. This native of Nashville was raised by her mother, since her Dad died when she was three. She wears a gold necklace her dad gave her before he died everywhere she goes. She started taking dance when she was four years old, but it was not until age eight that she began singing. Lesley sings in the alto range.

When Moore was younger, she was diagnosed with Osgood-Schlatter disease. She once stated that "My knees hurt, but I just grinned and bared it". Her big success, along with the rest of Jump5, has been five albums going gold or platinum, a remix album and a greatest hits album. She is currently dating a 21 year old Civil Engineering major from Tennessee Technological University.

She loves to shop, loves EasyMac ("ready in 3 minutes... it makes me very happy"), loves to dance, and she would like to clarify that her favorite color was never orange. "It's always been pink." Like her friends in Jump5, Lesley began entertaining at a very young age. She appeared in many commercials and music videos and basically kept her mom running around like a crazy woman. Her father's death, when she was only three, left her with a gift even more important than the gifts she brings to the stage. It taught her to squeeze every minute out of each day. "One of my goals," she says, "is to live life to its fullest. Not to rush through it, but to enjoy each and every day. To be real, be myself and make each day count."
