Q&A; With Hilary Duff

By Rebecca Winters; Hilary Duff Monday, July 12, 2004
    • Hilary Duff stars in A Cinderella Story and tours with her sister this summer.

    Do you and your sister Haylie wish you were twins so you could make Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen money?

    Umm...no.

    Why did you quit Lizzie McGuire?

    It's not like it was my choice. I was going through what Lizzie was going through — that teenager stage where you don't really know who you are. It was a good thing for me, but I worked my butt off. Everybody made a big deal out of it, like it was this horrible split.

    So the rumors that your mom was a stage mom...

    I love my mom. I totally look up to her, and she just doesn't let anybody take advantage of me. People might call that a stage mom.

    Lindsay Lohan joked about you on Saturday Night Live, and Avril Lavigne called you a mommy's girl. What gives?

    Honestly? I couldn't even tell you. With Lindsay Lohan, I don't think she likes me very much. With Avril Lavigne, her CD is in my car right now. You know what I did? I said something I shouldn't have said. I said she should respect her fans more. And then she called me a mommy's girl or a good girl. I don't care. I am a good girl.
