Watch Hilary Duff’s Intimate Performance of ‘Roommates’ on ‘Fallon’

Hilary Duff appeared on The Tonight Show to perform her recent single “Roommates” and to discuss her career with host Jimmy Fallon. The pop star performed in a bedroom-themed set alongside a live band, giving the song a cinematic TV debut.

“Roommates” comes off Duff’s new LP, Luck …or Something. The track was co-written by Duff, her husband, musician Matthew Koma, and Brian Phillips, and reflects on losing the spark in a relationship. Luck …or Something is Duff’s first new album since 2015’s Breathe In. Breathe Out. Her Small Rooms, Big Nerves tour kicked off on Jan. 19 in support of the album.

Duff sat down with Fallon to discuss the album and her tour, as well as growing up as Lizzie Maguire. She shared that her kids are fans of her music. “They love my music,” she said. “It’s very sweet.”

Fallon professed his love for The Lizzie Maguire Show and then asked Duff, “Who was your Lizzie Maguire? Who were you superfans of when you were growing up?”

“The Olsen twins,” she said. “Brother For Sale! When they were spies. They were like twin sister spies. I had it on video, my VHS, and I was obsessed with the Olsen twins. I’m about to drop a lot of names here: I met the Olsen twins at Aaron Carter’s birthday party, pre-us dating. I was like, ‘I have arrived. I’ve made it. Both of the Olsen twins are here.’ It was crazy.”

Duff also answered a series of questions from fans, including her favorite onscreen love interest and her favorite 2000s Hilary Duff commercial.

Elsewhere on the late-night show, Duff joined Fallon for a “Sip and Sing” challenge, which involved singing random songs with a mouthful of water. Fallon unsuccessfully sang Harry Styles’ “Watermelon Sugar” while Duff attempted Alanis Morisette’s “Ironic,” which Fallon somehow guessed.

Duff recently sat down with Rolling Stone to explain how she wanted to approach music as a mom. “It was really important to me to not make a record that was like, ‘I’m a mom and I pick up my kids at school and pack lunches every day and it’s so hard,’” she said. “It was not at all what I was interested in talking about. What I was interested in talking about is the shift in how it makes me feel, as a person.”

She added, “People have known my life since I was a child, and so they know all the characters in it and they know what I’m talking about. For me, it was important to be open about that theme. It genuinely came from the heart.”
