Hilary Duff: I was done with Lizzie McGuire and singing again
Hilary Duff is taking a moment to reflect on her journey, looking back at her time as the beloved character Lizzie McGuire. After the success of the 2003 film, which cemented her status as a pop star, she is reflecting on reaching a point where she feels she is truly “done” with the role of Lizzie.
However, the magic of that era continues to resonate, especially through the iconic music that defined the character. One of the most enduring pieces from the series is the unforgettable song, What Dreams Are Made Of.
Duff has brought this classic song into a new era, repurposing the melody for her upcoming musical projects. She recently re-recorded the track for her 2026 (Mine) EP, giving the familiar tune a fresh, contemporary spin.
Beyond the studio work, Duff is embracing a more personal approach to sharing her talent. She has also chosen to share the song live for the very first time, connecting with her audience in a new and intimate way.
This shift demonstrates that while the pop stardom of her youth remains a foundational part of her story, her focus is now firmly on evolving as an artist, weaving classic melodies into modern expressions. She continues to use the foundation built by her iconic roles to explore new creative avenues.
