Hilary Duff made a notable appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on March 9. During the episode, she spoke candidly about her childhood obsession with the Olsen twins and promoted her new album, “Luck … or Something.”
Childhood Obsession with the Olsen Twins
When prompted by Fallon, Duff immediately mentioned the Olsen twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley, as her young idols. She reminisced about their early work, including their 1992 album, “Brother For Sale,” and recalled her excitement over a video featuring the twins as spies. Duff shared a memorable experience from Aaron Carter’s birthday party, where she was thrilled to meet both twins, feeling she had truly “arrived” at that moment.
Promotion of New Album
Duff was on the show to discuss “Luck … or Something,” her first album in a decade, which recently entered the top 10 across various Billboard charts. Fans can expect an expanded edition of the album soon. She also expressed her nerves about her upcoming “Lucky Me” tour, marking her return to arena performances after 20 years.
Favorite On-Screen Love Interest
During a segment where she answered audience questions, Duff was asked about her favorite on-screen love interest. She weighed her choices between Austin Ames from “A Cinderella Story,” Dan Humphrey from “Gossip Girl,” and Paolo from “The Lizzie McGuire Movie.” Ultimately, she chose Chad Michael Murray for his memorable scene in “A Cinderella Story.”
Fun and Games with Fallon
In a light-hearted segment called the “Sip & Sing Challenge,” Duff and Fallon took turns singing while holding water in their mouths. Fallon attempted to sing Harry Styles’ “Watermelon Sugar,” while Duff humorously misplayed Aretha Franklin’s classic, leading to some laughs. The challenge ended with both trying to get drummer Questlove to perform A-Ha’s hit “Take on Me.”
Performance of “Roommates”
The show concluded with a sultry performance of Duff’s new single “Roommates.” She captivated the audience in a stunning white strapless dress. The song, exploring themes of romantic desire and tension, is co-written with her husband, Matthew Koma. Fans eagerly received the performance, highlighting Duff’s enduring musical appeal.
