In 1991 she appeared in a 21-page editorial for Vanity Fair, shot by French photographer Dominique Isserman. That same year she appeared on the covers of Vogue, and Photo (French magazine). She has been quoted that she owes her powerful runway strut to J. Alexander (model) (America's Next Top Model, who "taught" her how to walk.

In 2007, Amoore became an on-camera personality in the Hollywood celebrity circuit.[3]
Amoore was interviewed on Inside The Edge in 2008 about a non fiction book she was writing, but in a subsequent interview said that she put the non fiction book on hold, and finished her first novel instead.
She came out of retirement in 2007 to walk in the annual charity walk off for Keep A Breast Foundation.[4] Amoore has since appeared in Los Angeles on the runways for designers Kelly Nishimoto and Julia Clancey.
