I still don’t know who she is, nor do I give one. Do I care if some nobody goes to a Disco and plays a few Smiths songs? No

Does anyone else (I cant speak for them)?

Can we stop posting about this watery tart please?

"How could bubbly clean Duff invade these smoke-filled, drug-oozing dens of indie sin?"

Where is it exactly that you can smoke in New York City?

i still feel safe

Who does she think she's fooling?
Silly little girl.

With all the rich little Try-Hards that frequent all these places, she would have fit right in.

I went there once and couldnt bare to stay longer than 15 minutes. She belongs there with the rest of the 19 year olds.

This is truly awesome!!! news. If Hillary starts publically identifying herself with Morrissey, maybe her fans will start buying Moz albums! I was SO bummed when IBEH didn't make it on TRL (trust me, I voted online a lot!!! - did you?), so maybe this will give the recognition he deserves among teens. That would be so awesome to see Hillary Duff open for him. It sounds like her musical tastes are pretty good, and if people on this site would give her a real chance, they would find that she rights really deep songs for a person of her age, with really catch hooks.

The pessimism on this board can be pretty heavy.

Oh no! Someone young who makes pop music that I cannot identify with likes my idol! They are idiots and below me and how dare they do anything except like usher and allow me to continue my crusade of moral superiority!

I shall now massage my ego by stating that they cannot possibly understand any of the complex meanings behind the songs, and are merely trying to be cool. I see through it though!

FAQ!!!
First that piece of shit Durst, and now Miss teen queen herself, what the FUCK. I only blame Avril Lavigne cause I can't stand that twit either!

fuck all of you people who are slamming her for liking morrissey. i know you all jumped on fred durst too.. what the fuck difference does it make who likes him??? seriously?? what the fuck?? do you like morrissey? if so, what possible difference could it make who else likes him?? even if they are just "being cool" by saying they like him... who fucking cares!!???! grow the fuck up

So some tart nobody has heard of (on this side of the Atlantic anyway) going out, is what constitutes as news these days?
I despair.

The real losers are the people here who are down on this poor innocent girl for liking good music!

I think that most of the people on here who are down on Duff for enjoying Morrissey and other good music probably have inferiority complexes.

Does anybody here know Hilary Duff? Do any of you know what she's like as a person? No, you don't. You know her by the characters she plays, if that, and if you know her by the characters she plays, you're a closet fan, and are probably hating yourself for that and are taking your anger out on yourself on her, which is quite sad and unfortunate.

Leave the poor kid alone. If she's into Morrissey at her age, she's probably pretty cool.

I'd bet that most of the people on here slamming her are doing so because they're envious of the fact that she got into the Smiths and Morrissey and a younger age than them, and that at some level they feel she has an edge on them for that. I think that probably the people here slamming her are probably the same age group, because to slam a person you don't know for liking what you like is a very very young thing to do!

I mean, give her some credit. I'm glad she even knows who The Smiths or Morrissey are. I remember when I was 16, most girls my gae didn't even know of them, and I'm sure most 16 year ols American girls today dont know them either. I'm sure Britney doesnt know of them.
I love her and thinks she has great taste.

What is this crap? Who cares? I hope no one was paid for this.

You people just cant be happpy...I was born in '83 and i am a Moz freak! who cares how old she is ! Arent you glad that Moz has touched her life just like hes touched yours?

you people on here have this preconditioned idea that Morrissey fans have to be the stereotypical 'nerd/awkward/freak, etc' in order to appreciate HIS music. You know what---Im average/normal and i love his music!!!! OH NO!

For the odd straggler who still begrudges the girl called to ‘come to the Palms and be yourself’, when she is only demonstrating some musical class, some generalizations about an insular subset of persons to whom she compares favourably in this story! - (just to throw a spanner in the works...)

It never ceases to amaze me how ignorant and prejudiced people who visit this site can be. Does it really matter if Hilary Duff like Morrissey? No - it doesn't, in fact good on her for having good taste. I'm 30, but didn't discover Morrissey until I was 17. I suspect this is the case for a lot of people.

Get a grip - you can like Morrissey as well as The Cure. You can like Morrissey and Hilary Duff. Hell, you can even like Morrissey and the Wiggles if that's what makes you happy! Good grief, do you really think Morrissey gives a shit who likes him and who doesn't. Of course he doesn't. At the end of the day, he probably cares about making good music, having a life and making money!!

There is nothing sadder than a bunch of try hards who due to lack of imagination and character have to like everything and everyone that Morrissey does. Get over yourselves!!!

Kelly

is this really cute 17 year old gay guy..they are always photographed together out shopping and i've seen him in a SMITHS t-shirt a couple of times.
i luvs hillary, she go BAD bery bery soon.

Is that she's yet another actress/celebrity putting out shitty records. Music is sacred and shouldn't be touched by these people. Know your place, bitch. She's kinda like Britney meets J-Lo. As long as she doesn't COVER a Moz song everything will be alright. Her massacre of "Our Lips Are Sealed" was quite enough.

That she's got a prodigous coke habit. Next up: Lindsay Lohan reveals her passion for The Stone Roses.

she's hot.

Call me pitiful and petty and and sexist and rude and a propogator of run and mis-spelled and mis-shapen sentences -does it matter?

Kids are going to like the Mozzer; we were all kids once and we all discovered him and we all saw friends discover him as well (and we all, admittedly, sat with smug faces knowing that we knew of him first). But come on, good music doesn't die or appeal to only one generation -if you really believe this, then you (or at least most of you)should also never listen or 'understand' Bowie, VU, Dylan, Shostakovich, and on and on and on.

Be happy that there is still an avenue for young people to find something meaningful important.

I'm semi-erect.

i'm confused, should i still like Lindsay better?
i wanna know!

instead of dissing the duffmeister and commenting on other people's nights out, we should all get the hell off here and go out ourselves!

Why the hell do people hate her?
She's a singer! She's not the anti-christ or working for a terrorist organisation. So she likes Moz, so what? I bet theres an electriction out there that likes moz as well, probably an acountant and a nurse as well so why pick on her just because she doesn't make the sort of music you like to listen to?
Sure you can argue all you want about how fake she is cos she's a teeny pop star, but christ that argument has been going on for years and years about so many people, so get the fuck over it and let her like who she wants to like, you should all be proud that Moz is bringing in a new generation of fans.

I could care less about Ms. Duff...

What I really want to know is...

Is there really a Morrissey night in New York City??

Jan.

Yeah, because Morrissey is such a great sales force. Hooking on to his fame is going to push Hilary Duff over the top.

I love Moz, but let's not be delusional.
