“I took singing lessons because she did.
It all just got more intense until it turned into careers for both of us,” Hilary said.

She eventually followed her sister, Haylie, into acting, becoming a household name.
Duff said she was around age 10 or 11 when she first started to get into acting.
Still, a win is a win, and it’s clear those acting lessons paid off big time!

Breaking into film and television proved to be more difficult, though.
The film would go on to become a cult classic, helping the 19-year-old make a name for herself.
Duff, though, knew that the film was going to be huge.

“I read it and immediately knew it was going to be really funny,” she said.
Sadly, the three-week shoot ended up being life-changing for Duff in more ways than one.
“It was one of the most devastating experiences of my life,” she said.

The two also worked together onthe film’s soundtrack, collaborating on the song “Material Girl.”
Amber is the mean girl of the show, and Duff had a blast playing her.
“I also find the music so great.

I grew up watching the movie, and I was a huge fan of it.”
She said, “We pull for each other.
With film and television, your scenes are by yourself.”

For two years, from 2005 to 2007, Duffplayed Sandy Jamesonon the sometimes-overly sentimental-but-always-heartwarming series.
“I don’t know why I’m always hired to play the pregnant person …
I guess it’s good preparation for one day when I become a mom.”

She turned out to be right.
I guess that’s how I got better at it.
I just did it more often."

Yes, Haylie, the proof isliterallyin the pudding.
For example, did you know that she also has her own clothing line?
Yup, in 2017, Duff co-founded the clothing line Little Moon Society with Jessica Frank.

While the brand was originally just for kids, it now carries clothing for little ones and adults.
For Duff’s part, the pandemic made her realize that she was no longer enjoying living in Hollywood.
While she’s still performing, stardom just isn’t that important to her now.

“I’ve mostly stepped away from everything a little bit because I was having a baby …
I really wanted to enjoy that time with them,” she toldDistractify.
Balancing her career with motherhood hasn’t always been easy, but Duff toldYahoo!

We have to agree!
