\n\t\u201cI couldn\u2019t ask for anything better,\u201d Hilary Duff said just hours before her second sold-out Los Angeles show.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 38-year-old singer and actress is in the midst of The Lucky Me tour, her first major tour in over a decade. She waded back into the touring water last year with her intimate Small Rooms, Big Nerves tour. Hordes of young millennials and older Gen Z fans flocked to Inglewood\u2019s Kia Forum on Wednesday. The crowd, many of whom were dressed in bright pink, green and orange, looked like they wandered off the set of Duff\u2019s teen star-making show Lizzie McGuire<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuff got emotional about playing in L.A., noting that her family was in attendance. \u201cI\u2019m home,\u201d she shouted to Wednesday\u2019s gathered crowd, telling them that she\u2019s been to so many shows at the Forum over the year.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cHonestly, [the tour\u2019s] just been joyful and fun and extremely rewarding. That\u2019s not to say not a ton of work,\u201d she told The Hollywood Reporter<\/em> ahead of her second L.A. show. \u201cBut what a summer.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDuff\u2019s promoting her latest album,\u00a0Luck\u2026 or Something<\/em>, her first in a decade. The singer\u2019s prolific career as a teen and young star was a bit of a balancing act, juggling acting and an earnest pop career, and balance seems to be a theme of the new tour as well. The singer has been made to thread the tough but necessary needle of fitting her aughts hits and her new music into a single setlist. She also has to make sure it\u2019s engaging for both new and old fans.<\/p>\n

\n\tShe started the show with her 2005 song \u201cWake Up\u201d and her early-career hit single \u201cSo Yesterday.\u201d Starting with songs any fans in the audience would know felt like Duff was easing the crowd back into seeing her live.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe first new song that I sing is \u2018Roommates,\u2019 and I feel like that one really goes off,\u201d Duff said. \u201cIt\u2019s exciting to me when they\u2019re scream-singing the new stuff back to me as much as they do the old stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe singer\u2019s right. She has no reason to be concerned about the ratio of old to new music \u2014 the crowd was equally as passionate about her older offerings as they were about her songs off of Luck\u2026 or Something<\/em>. They were hanging on her every word.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s just a dance, honestly. Everything\u2019s been very intentional on my part, and I don\u2019t quite know how to explain what the formula for the balance is for me,\u201d she explained. \u201cI think it\u2019s more intuitive.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThroughout the show, while Duff changes, she\u2019s played video packages that acted as a buffer in between acts of the show. Some of those videos were Duff now but some were of the singer in her younger Lizzie McGuire<\/em> days.<\/p>\n

\n\tNaturally, those nostalgia-heavy videos got major applause. Duff took the time to thank the fans, many of whom have been with her since her younger days. \u201cI\u2019m so glad that girl was there for you,\u201d she told the crowd. The singer described this tour as not only a \u201chealing experience\u201d for the audience members but for her as well.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019m a Libra, so I feel like naturally balance is something that I gravitate towards,\u201d she told THR<\/em>. \u201cThe show for me feels like a very big celebration that\u2019s representative of my present self and celebrating an important part of my life, which is my past. When I first met everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tShe added, \u201cAnd that naturally is the nostalgic element that feels emotional for people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDuff, now in her 30s and more heavily involved in creating music, is certainly singing about different things than she did in her youth. When she and her collaborator (and husband) Matthew Koma work on music these days, she has a very specific process. \u201cWhen Matt and I were tackling Luck or Something<\/em>, it was about the storytelling first,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s more a feeling of what I want to get across first and what I want to talk about,\u201d she continued. She doesn\u2019t create the music, but she\u2019s particular about what she likes.<\/p>\n

\n\tSome of those new lyrics have landed her a new partnership. \u201cWas it a sip of wine or Aperol?\u201d Duff sang in her Luck or Something\u2026 song \u201cAdult Size Medium.\u201d The callout landed the singer a sponsor on the tour through a partnership with Aperol, whom she also called out mid-concert when explaining the wine fridge she keeps on stage. \u201cI feel like I summoned them,\u201d she joked.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt was really sweet when this came up, and I obviously love being partners with a brand that genuinely resonates with me and that I use,\u201d she said. Duff explained that the messaging of their partnership, \u201cshare the moment,\u201d has been particularly relevant to her current state.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuff added, \u201cIn my life right now where I feel like I\u2019m just pedaling as fast as I can to keep up. It\u2019s important to slow down and realize all the little victories or the goals that I\u2019m meeting.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDuff\u2019s iconic 2003 hit, \u201cWhat Dreams Are Made Of,\u201d from the Lizzie McGuire Movie, served as the perfect finale to her set, clocking just shy of two hours long. The singer leaned all the way into the feel-good and joyful song, dropping pink, white and orange balloons from the ceiling as confetti shot in the air.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201c\u2019Dreams\u2019 is always such a fun one,\u201d she said of the finale. \u201cI get to relax and let all the tricks do the job and just enjoy with everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n
