Duff is gearing up for a major comeback in music with her sixth studio album, Luck… or Something, dropping February 20. I guess I just felt ready, she told Stephanie McNeal from Glamour about returning to music after more than a decade. Early singles like “Mature” and “Roommates” hint at a more introspective sound, exploring adult themes and personal growth. You can only control your side and your street, she says, reflecting on family and the experiences that shaped her latest work.
Alongside the album, Duff is planning her first major headlining tour in nearly twenty years. The “Lucky Me Tour” kicks off in June, with stops at iconic venues including Madison Square Garden. Fans are eager to see her bring this new, edgier pop persona to life on stage.
At home, Duff balances life with her four children, including her youngest, Townes. She admits the juggling act is tough but rewarding. I try to have them be the stars of this household, she says, showing that family comes first while her career fits around her life.
Stylist Carolina Orrico helped craft the Glamour feature, blending high-fashion pieces with relaxed energy to match Duff’s current phase, bold, self-assured, and authentic. The editorial reflects a woman reclaiming her narrative, both on the red carpet and in her music.
