Welcome to the show.
Thank you for being here.
I want to get into everything.
I want to talk about your record, by the way, debuting number three on the Billboard chart.
Not too shabby.
Come on!
Not too shabby.
-"Luck or Something."
I want to talk about you playing Madison Square Garden.
I want to talk about you doing all this stuff.
First off, how's the fam?
How's everybody doing?
Oh, my God.
Chaotic as ever, but the best.
Yeah, that's it.
We're having fun.
Yeah.
What are they into now?
What do they watch at home?
Oh well, you know, we have a span, so we have a teenager and then we have a two-year-old and two in between.
So it's a lot of different things.
It depends on the time of day, really.
Okay.
In the morning, we're heavy into Bluey.
Yeah.
That's an unbelievable show.
It's a great show.
Honestly, sometimes I feel like it's soothing for our teenager.
He gets kind of enthralled in it.
I'm like, I get it.
It's, like, peaceful.
Oh, I watch it when the kids aren't home.
What's going on again?
That one made me cry.
Peppa Pig can... really get under my skin.
Oh, okay.
Too much?
It's not that it's not a sweet show.
It's just, like... You've been through it.
You know, in your family, do you... Like, I'm like, oh, Daddy's gonna take you to school.
Oh, Brother's here.
Oh... Like, and so every time Peppa Pig's playing, I just hear, Brother George!
Daddy Pig.
Daddy Pig.
And I don't think Matt appreciates that.
No, of course he does not appreciate that.
You know?
No.
Those accents just live in my head from Peppa Pig.
Everyone in your family, though, are they musicians?
Because I know you are and your husband is.
Yeah, I mean as much as 4- and 7-year-olds think they're not like savants by any means.
But they can really.
You know, they can really get down to some like Cat's Eye and some K-pop Demon Hunter.
Yeah.
And do they listen to mom's music?
They love my music.
Yeah, come on.
It's very sweet.
I think that, you know, if Matt and I get a hold of, like, the...
You guys, we play music on like Alexa.
It's so dorky.
Me too.
Okay, great.
So we just play it on Alexa, and if Matt and I get to it first, you know we'll put on like Squeeze or like Jackson Browne and like Counting Crows, like anything that we love and grew up with and try to instill.
And if we put it on first, they'll just listen and not be requesting.
I think they're just happy that something's on.
But if we don't get to it first, it's straight up for the whole entire day.
K-pop?
Yeah, or like, it's raining tacos.
Yeah, oh, my gosh.
Yes, it's raining tacos.
It's absolutely horrific.
God, that always comes on.
Right?
Yes.
Or chicken wing, chicken wing, hot dog and bologna.
It's just... Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
I love, I love you giving us a little something.
Yeah, it's not okay.
But you know what?
Like, love Cat's Eye, love...
What was the other one that I used to actually love?
It was like, uh, go Pizza Hut, go Pizza Hut, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut.
That was our era.
You know?
Yeah, maybe.
Wait, hold on, hold on, hold on.
McDonald's, McDonald's, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut.
McDonald's, McDonald's, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut.
Why are we here?
What are we doing?
How did we get here?
Because now I have the Hot Pocket song stuck in my head and I worked so hard as a child to remember the Crispy crunchy tender, flaky crust.
Do you remember that?
Nailed it.
Wow.
It's still in there.
Yeah.
Do you think that they're like, what tangent are they on?
No.
None of these things.
I have so many things.
They just ask you about Lizzie McGuire is what they're saying.
Okay, okay.
When we talk about Lizzie McGuire.
I guess.
My favorite.
You are the greatest.
Lizzie McGuire was one of my all-time faves, and I was probably way too old to love it.
But people love it, and it holds up, and you are so great.
Yes!
But, Hilary Duff, who was your Lizzie McGuire?
Who were you super fans of when you were growing up?
I mean, the Olsen twins.
Yeah!
Come on, brother for sale?
Brother for sale, only 50 cents.
Brothers for sale, I remember that.
When they were spies, they were like twin sister spies.
They're so cute.
They were like, I had it on video, guys, my VHS, and I was obsessed with the Olsen twins.
I...
I'm about to drop a lot of names here, okay?
I met the Olsen twins at Aaron Carter's birthday party.
What?
Three us dating.
And I was like, I have arrived.
I've made it.
Both of the Olsen twins are here.
I can't say.
You're both my favorite.
Yeah.
They are the coolest.
It was crazy.
But also, like, loved Clarissa Explains It All.
Loved Alex Mack, where she turned into the liquid and, like, floated under the door.
Yes!
Like, did you, right?
Clarissa Explains It All, yes.
Melissa Joan Hart.
Yeah.
She's fantastic.
Well, everything on the Internet obviously lives forever.
And people are going through a photo shoot that you did in your Lizzie McGuire days.
That was just confusing to some people.
And it's you with a bunch of orange peels.
And no one can explain why.
Is that strange for you?
Yes.
Is that strange for me?
Yes.
Okay.
Yeah.
Now, how does this make any sense?
Do you remember this, and where were you, and why?
So it is wild that everything lives forever on the internet.
And I have grown up with every phase that I have gone through lives forever on the internet.
And I brought this up and I was like it's just unfortunate that, like nobody else gets blamed except for the person that's like the subject.
Because who's going to blame?
Who knows who took this picture?
No one cares.
Who decided?
Let's do a crazy one.
Did a squirrel do this?
Did a squirrel do this and we, like, came upon it?
And they're like, sit.
Take some shots here.
What is happening?
Were those for me?
Is it a snack?
I don't know.
It's so strange.
Why am I?
This is called a child actor.
Like, what do you want me to do?
I'll do it.
Ah!
Orange is on the floor.
Right?
It's so concerning.
You made me laugh.
Orange is tossed at you.
Just the oddest thing ever.
I thought it would be fun if we could answer some questions that fans had.
Because we want to talk about the album, first of all.
Luck or something.
But we also have questions from All of your fans have sent stuff into The Tonight Show.
Every one of them?
Yes, every single one of your fans.
And I thought if we could answer maybe three, it'd be kind of fun.
Okay, just two.
Question one.
Your favorite on-screen love interest.
Austin Ames, Cinderella Story.
Dan Humphrey, Gossip Girl.
Paolo.
Lizzie McGuire, Movie.
This is a buzzy question.
I know who I'm gonna guess.
Okay, I'm very curious to know who you're gonna guess.
All right, I'm gonna circle.
I don't wanna look.
All right.
I don't know like the audience really just skewed my.
I'm just gonna stick to it because I just watched it with my daughter and it's embarrassing that she always wants to watch it.
I'm gonna say Chad Michael Murray.
What?
It was the... It was the... It was the walk up the bleachers.
It was the slow walk up the bleachers.
It was like, I know.
And the raindrop, I was like, wow, this is romantic.
I like that.
Question number two.
Favorite 2000s Hilary Duff commercial.
Is it...
Think Before You Speak PSA.
Is it the Disney Channel commercial where you drew the... Oh, wow.
Where you drew the ears, or is it, Well, That's My Life now?
Have you seen the slowed-down version of That's My Life where I look completely wasted?
No, but why would anyone do that to you?
Oh, it's so funny.
I'm like, well, that's me.
Oh, my God.
Like, 14 cocktails later, she's not okay.
Why is there a belt around my neck?
What?
What is happening?
It was the style.
Yeah, okay.
I... Gosh, this is a really, really tough one.
I think I'm going PSA.
Really?
Yeah.
I mean, what?
That thing took on so many legs.
I don't go anywhere without someone being like, thank you for that.
Oh, really?
And it's so sweet.
All right, good.
I love that.
That wasn't going to be your choice.
I liked just the Mickey ears.
Just you had a magic.
You were magical.
Well, it was the not giving anything where, you know.
Did we see this?
Where I was like, oh.
I'm tired of this day.
Tired of this day.
Before we get to question number three, I want to talk to you about your album and this tour.
Are you excited about this?
I mean, this is a big deal.
You're playing two nights at the Garden.
You're going all over the place for this.
It's a big deal.
It's a really big deal.
Do you get nervous before you do these giant arenas?
Well, I haven't done a giant arena, Jimmy, in 20 years.
So yeah, I'm going to be like really nervous, really sweaty.
Oh my gosh.
The lucky me tour.
The lucky me tour.
And I feel extremely lucky.
I think, you know, being so far removed from music.
I haven't put an album out in 10 years.
I didn't tour that record.
So this is like, you just never know how people are going to receive you.
But people want it.
People loved it.
I mean, people, we were so happy that you did it.
It was like, it worked.
Like, yo, let's go, Hilary Duff, we want it.
It's all great.
Also, I mean, we want more.
Is there another album coming out?
What can we say?
Would you do more?
Jimmy, take it easy.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I've got four kids at home.
I still have to, you know, divvy up my time.
No, I think...
Of course.
I mean, I've lived with this record for almost two years now, so I'm really ready for the next and there'll be a deluxe.
So we'll do that and yeah, I'm in it now.
I'm in the cycle.
All right, well, now knowing this, here's my third question.
Which dance routine do you still remember to this day?
Is it the one from Cadet Kelly?
No.
Is it What Dreams Are Made Of?
No.
Or is it With Love?
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
It's With Love?
Yeah, of course.
I know that.
You've resurrected the With Love dance.
I love that you did that, though.
It was all over the place.
It blew up.
It was super fun.
I was wondering if you could maybe teach me some moves from With Love.
I would be honored.
Are you ready?
Get up here.
Let's go.
All right, here we go.
How do we do this?
I'm excited.
Okay, you want me to slowly, like... Yeah, well, for me, definitely.
Okay, we're gonna drag your hand across your chest.
Uh-huh.
Then we're gonna sit.
We're driving the car, okay?
Okay.
Yeah, that's right.
This is good.
And we're gonna go foot, foot.
Okay.
And then this one first.
Uh, uh.
Okay, and then you're gonna knock your knees in.
There we go.
Now we're throwing our head to the side.
Twist your arms up.
Twist your arms down.
Push your butt out.
Let's go, uh, uh, uh, uh.
Let's go.
Five, six.
Let's go.
All right.
Six, seven.
I'm so happy I hurt myself.
Hilary Duff, everybody!
Here with the TV debut of her song, Roommates, from her new album, Luck or Something.
Once again, Hilary Duff!
Physical affection goes a long way with me.
I don't want to quietly resent you.
I just want the easy fix.
But life is life and your pressure is pressuring me.
Oh, I wish that I could catch you in the wind.
You'll be like the stars at noon.
You won't come out until you're ready.
But here I am telling you, don't put up with it too long.
And I know we would laugh if I tried walking in with something.
Life is life and pressure is pressure in me.
Oh, I wish that I could catch you in the rain.
Always think I'm cute, Come on.
That is how you do it.
Hilary Duff!
Come on!
