Hilary Duff’s voice will be forever linked withLaguna Beachin viewers' minds, but the singer and actress has revealed she’s never actually been one of those viewers.
StarringLauren Conrad,Kristin CavallariandStephen Collettiduring their days at Laguna Beach High School, the show was a game-changer during its run from 2004 to 2006, cementing its top three stars' lives in the public eye and launching the 2006–2010 spin-offThe Hills.
Duff’s time as a top pop artist came after she starred in her breakout role on Disney’s Lizzie McGuire from 2001 to 2004.
“They love me over there,” quipped Duff. “I don’t know how much money I made from it. I don’t think a lot. But maybe Disney [which owns Hollywood Records] did.”

The actress also talked about 2004’sA Cinderella Story, one of her other major projects from that era.
When a fan asked her if she would consider starring in a sequel alongsideJennifer Coolidge, Duff gushed about the beloved character actor (who recently became anEmmyandGolden Globe winnerthanks to her work on HBO’sThe White Lotus).
Calling Coolidge a “lovely human being,” Duff said, “I can’t even begin to tell you how much I’ve just been obsessed with this past year for Jennifer Coolidge. It’s been really cool to see.I’m really proud to see her moment, and it just reminds me that being in this industry, I feel so lucky that anything can happen at any stage.”
