USA Today Music Critic Praises Duff, Rebuffs Aguilera
Ken Barnes of USA Today chatted with readers in an online chat on Tuesday and was asked about his thoughts on Hilary Duff. “Perfectly pleasant pop (sorry, I’m a functional alliterate)with today’s fashionable rock flavor,” he said. “She sounds fine and the songs are catchy and I found it quite likable, if not stunningly original.
