Hilary Duff talks Grindr, equality, acceptance, etc.
Quote:
You're a longtime ally of the LGBT community, and you also have many gay friends, so you must have been thrilled about the Supreme Court ruling on marriage equality. What does that momentous moment mean to you?
Oh my gosh. I'm so excited. What a big day. It's a huge step toward equality. Everyone should be able to be who they are, love who they want and marry who they want. It's 2015; for us to still have judgment about people being gay is ridiculous, so I can't believe it's taken this long. It's definitely a big day in history, and I'm just so excited.
Considering you're not feeling well, you probably won't be celebrating just yet.
Actually, I do have a party happening at my house tonight for my assistant / best friend. We just worked through her birthday during album release week, and I feel so bad, so we're finally celebrating at my house tonight. But we'll be celebrating (marriage equality) as well, I'm sure. It definitely deserves a big toast. Do you have a partner?
I don't have a partner, no. Is being on Tinder key to finding "the one"? Perhaps you can give me some dating advice. What are Hilary Duff's tips for finding a husband?
(Laughs) Obviously, I haven't been so lucky. No - I don't know. I would not, uh - I would not go with me on Tinder. I don't know! God. Geez. Maybe the right thing will be in the air tonight.
Lately you've been a Tinder enthusiast; have you experienced Grindr?
Well, I haven't physically actually experienced it, like I don't have it on my phone or anything, but it's basically the same thing as Tinder, right? I know because my makeup artist, who's one of my best friends, has used Grindr a lot and he's told me all about it. I get to hear all the stories.
And what are those stories?
(Laughs) I mean, I don't wanna put him on blast. You know what's crazy is, I feel like you guys hook up a lot more freely. I don't know if that's just me because I'm a little more cautious, I guess. I don't know what it's like to be a totally normal girl who doesn't give a **** about anything.
Because of your celebrity status?
I think so, yeah. And also, I'm a mom and I've always been a relationship girl. I'm always surprised when he's like, "Yeah, I was just in France and I met a dude on Grindr and went over to his house," and like, they got it done. I'm so fascinated by it.
Your 3-year-old son, Luca, is so cute, by the way.
He's naked right now and covered in tattoos.
If he were to come out to you one day, what would you tell him?
Oh my gosh. I would be so accepting. I just had a long conversation with one of my adult friends who has grown children who are about to go off to college, and he's like, "I haven't really had this conversation yet," and I'm like, "You better do it now because if a kid doesn't feel accepted by his family, and they're getting ready to move into a new town, it will just create a divide. He'll go find his life and you won't be a part of that. He'll go find where he is accepted."
Ah, it could almost make me cry. I feel like... that must be such a lonely place if you don't feel accepted by your family. I can't imagine. So, 100 percent, I feel like I would notice all the signs and be the first one to bring it up if I had to, and I would want him to wholeheartedly be himself and know that that was accepted by me.
