Hey now, Hilary Duff just finished her first headlining show since 2008. For the first stop of her Small Rooms, Big Nerves tour in London, Duff gave her fans what they were dreaming of. She sang 17 songs for her concert at the O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, including some songs from her Lizzie McGuire days. She kicked off the show with “Wake Up” and “So Yesterday” before diving into the live debut of “Roommates” and some unreleased songs, like “Weather for Tennis” and “Future Tripping.” She ended the concert with “What Dreams Are Made Of,” having her real-life end-of-a-movie life-changing performance, especially for those who grew up with Duff on Disney Channel and are now full-grown adults wondering why a 13-year-old was let loose around Rome on a scooter.
But the most critical part of the show, and one you should be preparing for if you were lucky enough to get tickets, is when Duff invited three fans on stage to do the “With Love” dance from her 2011 performance on the TODAY show. It was the fans’ very own “Sing to Me Paolo” moment as they probably didn’t expect to do the dance in front of Hil’ herself. It’s a perfect way to start the tour, but it begs the question: what other memes will Duff bring to the stage? For the next show, please bring two fans up to do the “That’s so gay” commercial. We all have it memorized, anyway.
