Hilary Duff
Without The Headlines

By Pegah Aarabi

      Hilary Duff is the girl-next door, who just happens to be an international brand name and triple threat. With a hit TV series, blockbuster movies, chart-topping singles, her own line of clothing and accessories - Stuff by Hilary Duff for Target - and even a steamy romance with rocker Joel Madden, the lead singer for Good Charlotte, Hilary is poised to become a celebrity powerhouse.

Unlike her peers, Hilary Duff has made little tabloid news, opting instead to keep her head in the business side of show-business. Hilary is best known in the title role in the Disney Channel hit "Lizzie McGuire". Her first album, "Metamorphosis," debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200, and eventually rose to #1 in the following weeks. If that weren't enough, her Stuff line made $5 million in its first year in stores. All this and she's barely out of teenagehood.

Here's what the successful actress/singer/businesswoman has to say about all the things that have kept her on track and out of the headlines.
