Hilary Duff'S Musical Comeback: New Album Set To Drop After A Decade

Hilary Duff's Big Return to Music

For the first time in over a decade, Hilary Duff is reminding fans what dreams are made of by dropping a brand-new album. Known for her iconic role in "Cinderella Story" and her Disney Channel days as "Lizzie McGuire," Duff has announced her latest musical project titled "luck…or something," which hits the airwaves on February 20, 2026. Teaming up with her husband and Grammy-winning producer, Matthew Koma, Duff co-wrote the album and promises it’s a journey through her adult life, post-Disney.

“I'm often asked how I still have my head on straight after growing up in this industry,” Duff shared in a statement.

“The album title is my way of answering that question. It’s luck, but there's also a lot of weight in the '…or something.' Many of the things I've been through along the way are held there, and I feel like ultimately that’s what’s shaped me.”

Single Alert: "Mature" is Here!

Duff is already making waves with her Nov. 6 release of "Mature." The track is a captivating '80s-inspired bop recounting her experiences of dating someone older, sparking memories of her past relationships and growing up in the limelight. Lyrics like "She looks like she could be your daughter / Like me before I got smarter" have led fans to speculate if the song is an "autofiction" nod to her teenage romance with Good Charlotte's Joel Madden.

Despite the chatter, there are no hard feelings here. Madden is happily married to Nicole Richie, who took to Instagram to congratulate Duff on her musical return. "'Mature' is not the word I would use to describe us, but regardless, this song is a BOP," Richie wrote, playfully dispelling any rumor of bad blood.

Countdown to February 20, 2026

Set to be released through Atlantic Records, "luck…or something" is a highly anticipated project that promises to showcase Duff's personal growth and musical evolution. Fans are counting down the days until February 20, 2026, when they can finally soak in the new sounds and stories Duff has crafted over the years.

Keep your ears open for more singles and music video teasers as they roll out in the coming months. From Disney darling to a matured musician, Hilary Duff is proving that she's still got it and ready to take the music world by storm again.
