Hilary Duff saves the day!!

 

Hilary Duff brings her bright smile to the “Blessings in a Backpack” event held on Thursday at Boca Raton Elementary School in Boca Raton, Florida.

Blessing in a Backpack is an organization designed to help meet the nutritional needs of children and families over weekends.

“I like to donate my time and feed people and make a difference and help people that aren’t as fortunate as me,” The Duffster, 20, said, “It’s cool to do that it’s not dumb… You come to the school and it makes it all real, you get to see the people that are taking the food home this weekend and are getting to feed their brothers and sisters at home. Bring something to the table in the family.”

Hilary Duff Dishes on Avril, Lindsay and Miley!!

Hilary Duff is the cover girl for Allure magazine’s May 2008 issue. Allure did a gorgeous ‘Bonnie N Clyde’ inspired photoshoot with Hilary. Hilary did a very interesting interview with the magazine too where she talks about fellow peers Miley Cyrus, Lindsay Lohan and Avril Lavigne.

On herself:

I’m not a perfect, prude girl. I like to do normal things that 20 year-olds do, but…I don’t want that attention. If I can’t get any from what I’m doing now, I’ll figure out a different plan.

On whether she is worried she’ll lose her Lizzie McGuire fans since she’s choosing mature roles now:

I don’t want to restrict myself from doing things that stimulate me just to make them happy…if they continue liking me, that’s cool, but I don’t want to cater to them. I’m not 13, 14, or 15 anymore.

On growing up in the spotlight:

I don’t think I ever looked sick, but I really watched what I ate. You lose touch when you’re so obsessed.

I’m not good at loving the red carpet and knowing how to pose the way you’re supposed to.

On dating then Joel Madden, 24, when she was only 15:

“He was never nervous, like, ‘I could get arrested,’” she says. But does admit, “It looked bad.”

On Lindsay Lohan:

“Supposedly, I stole Lindsay Lohan’s boyfriend [Aaron Carter.] We were, like, 13! And I’ve never stolen anyone’s boyfriend! I don’t know how you do that! . . . She was talking about it and I wasn’t. It made us both look bad and put up a big weirdness. Really she was just a girl my age. We are fine now, by the way.”

On Miley Cyrus:

“We don’t have each other’s phone numbers. But when she meets me, she’s excited. It’s cute – I see a lot of myself in her.”

On Avril Lavigne:

“I said something about how she didn’t like her fans dressing like her, and how she should appreciate that because it’s a compliment. She called me a goody-goody [Lavigne called Duff a ‘mommy’s girl’ in Newsweek] Everyone is trying to prove who they are, and their position. So, I’m ‘the good girl.’ She’s ‘the bad girl’ or ‘the party girl.’ Sarah Jessica Parker doesn’t take her clothes off, but she’s not a ‘good girl.’ [Adult actors] don’t get tagged like we do.”
