Hilary Duff from Child Star to Mom-to-Be
Hilary Duff shines all the way from being Child Star to Mom-To-Be
Hilary Duff Gets A Birthday Present From The Paparazzi
Hilary Duff has grown up right in front of our eyes!
On Wednesday, the pregnant singer-actress turns 24!
Duff and hubby Mike Comrie announced in August that they were expecting their first child. "We are extremely happy and ready to start this new chapter of our lives," she gushed on her website.
But Duff, who rose to fame as the main character on the Disney Channel's Lizzie McGuire, knows many people have a hard time seeing her as a full-fledged adult. "I grew up in people's living rooms, and so they know me as this little blond, perfectly-relatable girl. And that's fine," she told the Huffington Post. "But kind of, to make that transition, I felt it was important to take a step back and get out of people's everyday of seeing me all the time."
Unlike some of her contemporaries, Duff has stayed out of trouble with the law. Largely for that reason, Miley Cyrus declared in 2008 that the fellow former Disney star was her role model.
"[Hilary has] kind of set the way for all of us, not only just in a business sense, but [by] saying that it is OK to be a good girl," Cyrus, now 18, told MTV News. "Like, that's cool!"

Star Spotting: Hilary Duff Is Human! She Wears Sweatpants While Pregnant!

For a second we thought this photo of Hilary Duff was actually Nicole Richie. It's easy to get the two confused -- they're both stylish hot mommas! What gave it away, though, was Duff's beaming skin. That's not sweat from her workout, folks. That's some serious mommy-to-be pregnancy glow. Besides, girls don't sweat, they glisten.
The "So Yesterday" singer was snapped leaving a pilates class in L.A. decked out in proper pregnancy digs: a loose sweater and shirt paired with some cozy-looking sweatpants. We give the Duffster major points for keeping it real by wearing NORMAL clothes while pregnant. Not everyone's up for sporting a white gown and heels while carrying a child inside of them. (Ahem, Beyonce!) But it's not like Hil's lagging on the fashion -- check out those shades, y'all. She's cute AND comfortable.
Speaking of, Beyonce's and Hilary's bundles of joy should arrive around the same time. Maybe the two can schedule a play date? They can meet at the "Our Babies Will Run The World" daycare center.
