The actress has spoken out.
, Duff says she’s sick of talking about Lizzie. After enduring the first four questions of an interview presumably for“But by the way, I don’t love to talk about this because the internet seems to explode whenever Lizzie stuff is brought up, but it’s not dead and it’s not alive,” she said. “I think there’s always a possibility there. And even if she’s 40, I don’t think people care. It’s always going to be somewhat interesting to people to see where she ended up.
Duff is the single childhood star I can think of who was big and revered who didn’t end up on the cover ofmeant every actress you loved would one day be a cautionary tale. I’d obsessively refresh Perez Hilton to witness Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, Mischa Barton and later, Miley Cyrus, “go off the rails,” aka succumb to the psychological effects of a lifetime of intense public scrutiny while the monster truck that is the paparazzi complex was there to witness it — and contribute to it — live.
“I knew I had a responsibility. If I found myself in a situation of being drunk at the club, I didn’t want to be on the cover of a magazine like that,” she said. “I kept a low profile, [used] the back door, not the front door.”The Cut“I remember I was maybe 18 or 19 on tour and this mother came up to me after a meet and greet and she was like, “Whatever you do, don’t change. Just stay the same.” It was so intense. And she was holding my arms and looking in my face, almost begging me.
Maybe we feel so comfortable excavating Duff’s past because in the eyes of the public, she never lost her good-girl image. Maybe it’s easy to continue to infantilize a TV star who stayed so close to the cuff of the character they played when they were 13. Maybe she’s simply too much like Lizzie. “Not trying to take all the credit for Lizzie McGuire,” she said tointerview, Duff also talked about how, for years, she didn’t want to hear the name Lizzie McGuire, something that changed in her 30s.
