Hilary Duff is going on a world tour — and for her longtime fans, the news really is what dreams are made of.
Duff announced her long-awaited return to music last year. The pop icon signed with Atlantic Records in September and soon after shared news of her upcoming album, luck… or something, out Feb. 20. She has released two singles so far, “Mature” and “Roommates.”
By the start of 2026, it was clear she was more than ready to dive back in and continue building on momentum. In January, Duff embarked on a four-city mini tour including London, Toronto, Brooklyn and Los Angeles. And for her hometown finale, she made sure to save a special surprise.

Halfway through her set — which featured beloved hits including “Why Not,” “Come Clean” and “What Dreams Are Made Of” — Duff invited three lucky fans on stage to dance with her. And after delivering spot-on choreography, she had a thank you gift waiting for each one of them. With their backs turned to the packed venue, Duff gave each fan a black t-shirt and told them not to turn around until her signal.
Once they were all ready, the three fans spun to face the audience and revealed major news, with three words spread out across each shirt: “World Tour Loading…”
As the crowd erupted in celebratory cheers and applause, Duff couldn’t help but beam as she took it all in. “It’s a trip,” she later said. “I can’t believe I’m here 18 years later.”
Duff has charted seven songs on the Billboard Hot 100 and all five of her albums have debuted within the Billboard 200’s top 5. Metamorphosis (2003) and Most Wanted (2005) both hit No. 1.
