Hillary Duff is the Sexiest 2009 Young Hollywood Star
15 Dec
Hillary Duff glams up Maxim´s Young Hot Hollywood special issue. Now that she´s all grown up, the 21-year-old America´s sexiest sweetheart turns sultry Hollywood goddes! Read the interview´s highlights!
On her image makeover for ´Reach Out´: “I was ready to do something different. The intent was not to be overtly sexual; I´m not naked. I do have little shorts on in it – but I also wear giant tutu. It´s good to show different sides of yourself.”
On changing hair color: “I love changing my look and my image. I found that people treated me differently with dark hair, so I kept it for a while. It´s great to explore being different people. Blondes definitely get treated in a more protective way.”
On her new movie choices: “I see an acting career lasting longer in my life than a singing career. I´ve been thinking of the long term. Greta is an indic picture, which I love. The character´s obsessed with suicide. She´s funny and artistic and impossible not to like. I felt like I related to her exactly – minus the suicide part. In Safety Glass I got to work with Steve Coogan, who is so interesting. Guys like John Cusack and Coogan are just so smart, so cool – I had crushes on both of them. Oh, and Stay Cool is really funny. I got to play this girl trying to seduce this older guy – so fun to do.”
On being a tween queen: “Mothers come up to me and say: `Don´t ever change, you´re such a good girl.´I am a good girl. But how can I say I won´t ever change? That´s impossible. And trust me, being a really good girl can work against you.”
On scandals: “I´ve had little opportunity to get into trouble because I´ve been working for years. Being distractd by work can be a good thing! I also don´t have too much to rebel against.”
On earning $ 15 millions anually: “Every year´s different. But I´ve had good years like that.”
On being single: “I´m a relationship person. Now it´s all over the Internet that I´m getting engaged to my boyfriend. The truth is, I just like to wear rings.”
On the worst thing ever written about her: “I´ve been accused by the press of giving lap dances at clubs. I mean, little ol´ me? It´s shocking. People love to believe it – it´s way more exciting to talk about than the truth. And they´re so descriptive about these lap dances. I don´t even know how to do a lap dance.”
On being a virgin: “You know what? I was quoted saying I was a virgin, but I absolutely did not say that. That´s nobody´s business but my own. Somehow it turned into a bad thing. I know that´s how this business – and life – works. At the end of the day, though, I have to make myself happy.”
