Hilary Duff: Gonna have a summer single?!
Hilary Duff
About DIGNITY
Given the title and Hilary Duff's sophisticated, uptown-girl look on the cover, 2007's DIGNITY seems to announce that the teen starlet is all grown up. Yet the album is still full of effervescent dance-pop, as fresh-faced and catchy as fans of Top 40 and commercial bubblegum would expect. The production techniques, complete with electronic flourishes and nods to club music, are well crafted, to be sure, but DIGNITY isn't about cutting-edge sounds or thumping club bangers. Instead, the electro-beats reinforce the pop song structures and make the singalong tunes shine.
The most sophisticated thing about DIGNITY may be its lyrics. Gossip-mill regulars will be able to parse references to Duff's much-publicized entanglements with other commercial pop stars, but what stands out is Duff's mature response to her life's tumult. The album plays like a confession, but does so with a cool head and a clear eye, underscoring the album's title without detracting from the music's inherently fun, bouncy style.
Biography
Hilary Erhard Duff (born September 28, 1987) is an American actress, pop singer/songwriter and entrepreneur. After gaining fame for playing the title role in the television show Lizzie McGuire, Duff went on to have a film career; her most commercially successful movies include Cheaper by the Dozen (2003), The Lizzie McGuire Movie (2003), and A Cinderella Story (2004). She earned $15 million in 2005 and $12 million in 2006 and 2007.
Duff has expanded her repertoire into pop music, with three RIAA certified-platinum albums and over thirteen million albums sold worldwide. Her first studio album, Metamorphosis (2003) was certified triple platinum and she followed it up with two more platinum albums, Hilary Duff (2004) and Most Wanted (2005). Duff's latest studio album, Dignity, was released in April 2007 and was certified Gold in August 2007. So far, the album has shipped 907,300 copies worldwide.
She has also launched a clothing line, Stuff by Hilary Duff, and an exclusive perfume with Elizabeth Arden. Duff and her mother were listed as producers for the movie Material Girls, and she will soon produce her sister's debut album.
Her upcoming films include the 2007 action thriller War, Inc., animated comedy Foodfight! and independent films Greta and Safety Glass.

Will there be a summer single?
Questions Asked:
1. Is Hilary still against promoting on Disney Channel?
A: Yes, she's adamant about not being associated with them again.
2. Does it look like she'll have much control on her next album?
A: Hollywood Records is definitely taking a big step back in, & this seems to have caused a rift on when Hilary will start working on her album. It keeps getting pushed back & as of now, there is no set recording time for what HR wants. Hilary, on the other hand, is still writing for the album.
3. Have any musicians contacted her on working with her as of late?
A: There's been a lot of producers & a couple of rappers here & there that have shown interest, but so far, no actual singers, for this album. Most artists don't even know she's starting a new one.
4. Will they release any new singles anytime soon?
A: From Hilary, nothing is planned at this time, they were thinking of doing a summer single to be released in May or June, but like most other projects "in the making" with HR, it'll most likely be canceled.
5. Hilary's been approached by other better labels recently, any idea on why she won't make the jump?
A: I can't get into specifics about why she won't & I don't even know for sure, but I can tell you that Hilary was looking into new labels very recently. She's already gotten offers from two (one, during early production of "Dignity" & the other earlier this year). She may or may not make a jump soon.

4 Songs with Timbo
1. Hilary was in New York this week to talk to some songwriters for her upcoming album.
2. Sean Garrett has approached HR with two songs he'd like Hilary to do.
3. No planned collaborations yet.
Questions I asked:
4. How many songs does Timbaland have for Hilary? Does he believe she can do well?
Timbaland has 4 songs he wants Hilary to do. He believes that she's a very marketable act & that she can do far with the right songs & promotion. He sees a bright future ahead for her in music & would like to be a part of it.
5. Will the petition for the Tour DVD help at all?
Hollywood Records are aware of a petition but have not followed up on it.

Songs Scrapped? 
1. Hilary will be given producers to work with on the new album.
2. The album's recording was postponed to March 10th or the 17th. It all depends on when she gets back from Japan, which was scheduled last minute.
3. All of the songs that Hilary recorded between July 2007 - January 2008 have been scrapped for sure, except for "Reach Out," "Twisted" & the other song Hilary recorded in January. But even those are only being CONSIDERED. ("Reach Out" has the biggest chance of making the new album.)
4. Timbaland may work with Hilary for the new album. HR approached him this time & he says he has some really good songs he think would be right for her.
5. Hilary may be getting lawyers involved to handle some of the other problems she's having with the label.

New song called "Twisted"
1. New Song Title: "Twisted." The song is very electro-pop, reminiscent of Kylie's "In Your Eyes."
2. While having some time off in Brazil, Hilary started writing a new song.
3. Hilary said that the reaction in Brazil made her all the more appreciative of her fans.
Questions I asked:
4. What is an instrument Hilary is interested in learning? Hilary is interested in playing the piano.
5. Were there any other planned singles besides "Gypsy Woman" & "Dignity"? "Danger" was previously a planned single for Europe, but the label canceled it in July. Her label decided they didn't want to put any more money into album promotion & canceled the planned "Gypsy Woman" video as well. Both were supposed to shoot before the "Dignity" tour started in July.

Dignity is now Gold in the US.
She really needs to have a summer single, and she needs to start recording now, or her album will be pushed back again!
HR seriously needs to shut up and let Hilary do what she wants!
And Hilary, you better accept the offer of the other labels!

^Oh, pa-lease, she's not a teenager anymore. I hope she doesn't pull an Avril, in the way that she evolved her sound (UMS) then involved (TBDT). Diginity was a step up for Hills and she needs to stick with that style, just make it better. And don't come tell me she flopped cause of her style change, becuase it was all Hollywood's fault
