Hilary Duff, 19, made her name in the TV show "Lizzie McGuire:. She has since appeared "Cheaper by the Dozen" and "A Cinderella Story". She is now embarking on a music career with a single "Stranger" by WAWA vs Hilary, released on 20 August. An album, "Dignity", is out now.

If I weren't talking to you right now I'd be ...

At home with my dogs, or swimming because the weather is really hot.
I wish people would take more notice of ...
My work, instead of my personal life. It seems all people want to know about is what I'm doing in my free time.
The most surprising thing that ever happened to me was...
I guess my career itself - most of all my first two tours. I had never been on tour before and I didn't know people cared about my music.
A common misperception of me is ...
That people think I am perfect, and not a normal person. Young people my age that have the same sort of careers seem to be always acting crazy. Because I am not pictured doing these things, I am criticised for being too perfect. But if I was I would be criticised too.
I'm not a politician but ...
There are so many issues in America. Our involvement in the war is the most obvious, and also the way some people are treated. I would also change the weekends to workdays, and have the whole week as a weekend, then I'd be a popular politician, wouldn't I?
I'm good at ...
Baking, my special is cookies. I'm also good athlete, and a good friend.
I'm very bad at ...
Driving. My garage sometimes jumps out at me. The other day I heard a scratch as I was pulling my car out. I thought I just ran over some bubble wrap so I kept going. When I got out, I saw my mirror was hanging off. Everyone is scared to get in the car with me.
The ideal night out is ...
It depends on my mood. Last night my sister and I just stayed in and had a meal, had a swim and watched a film, and it was so nice to just chill out. Other times I want to dance and stay out late.
The best age to be is ...
I don't know, but I think 23-24 will be cool.
In a nutshell, my philosophy is ...
Live and let live. If we could all forget our egos and realise we all want the same things we would all be a lot happier
