Hilary Duff is turning the volume all the way up with a NSFW new track that fans are calling “song of the year.”
“I only want the beginning, I don’t want the end / I want the part where you say goddamn / Back of a dive bar giving you head / Then sneak home late, wake up your roommates,” Duff, 38, sings in a video posted via Instagram on Wednesday, January 7, featuring her risqué lyrics about hot hookups and a fizzling romance in the clip.
“I want the highlights, 10 out of 10 / The butterflies from holding your hand / Before we swept us under the bed / And we became practically roommates / I’m touching myself by the front door / But you don’t even look my way no more,” she continues.
The pop star released a snippet of her single from her upcoming album, Luck… Or Something, and effectively tuned out of the “toxic” mom group drama she was dragged into stemming from a personal essay written by Ashley Tisdale French and published on The Cut. (Although French, 40, didn’t share any names in her January 1 post, online sleuths are convinced she was referring to her celeb group of mom friends that includes Duff, Mandy Moore, Meghan Trainor and more.)
In the clip, Duff wore a crisscross yellow dress as she glistened in the sun and mouthed the lyrics while standing in a vibrant green field. Her arm tattoos were on full display.
“Hilary. I fear this album will become my entire personality,” one fan commented on her latest clip, while another raved, “This reel slapped the Capri Sun out of my hand and replaced it with a questionable drink in a plastic cup. I LOVE IT HERE.”
Duff’s new album is set for release on February 20, months after she shared the first single, “Mature,” in November. This new album will be her first since 2015.

Her husband, Matthew Koma, was among those to show love in the comments section, writing, “That’s my girl 🧡.” (The former Lizzie McGuire actress shares three children with Koma: daughters Banks, 7, Mae, 4, and Townes, 20 months. Duff also shares a son, Luca, 13, with ex-husband Mike Comrie.)
Prior to his show of support for her song, Koma, 38, also weighed in on the “toxic” mom group drama, taking to social media on Tuesday, January 6, to share a “promotion” of his own fictional article with The Cut.
“A mom group tell-all through a father’s eyes,” Koma’s tongue-in-cheek post read. “When you’re the most self obsessed tone deaf person on earth, other moms tend to shift focus to their actual toddlers.”

Despite the ongoing speculation that Duff was among the moms that French wrote about, the High School Musical star’s rep shut down the rumors that she was referring to Duff, Moore, 41, or Trainor, 32, according to TMZ.
The rep added that French had intended her piece, titled “Breaking Up With My Toxic Mom Group,” to spotlight a relatable issue about being shut out of a friend group.
