HILARY DUFF: ROLE MODEL FOR MILEY CYRUS



With all the high-pressure intensity of a celebrity lifestyle, sometimes it's nice to just slow down and get your nails done. And that's just what was on Hilary Duff's mind yesterday.

She was spotted out for a manicure in Studio City looking casual in a fuzzy white top, stretch jeans, and a pulled-back hairdo (note the BlackBerry Curve- geez, everyone has one of those!).

Duff's overwhelming success, and lack of negative press has led none other than Miley Cyrus to look to her as a role model. The "Hannah Montana" actress recently revealed her admiration for the former "Lizzie McGuire" star.

"She's on Disney, or was on Disney Channel, and she's kind of set the way for all of us, not only just in a business sense, but [by] saying that it is OK to be a good girl. Like, that's cool! It's kind of just given us all inspiration to go out. Whether it was her or not, I would definitely be doing what I'm doing, but she definitely made it more acceptable.

And Miley says she values the advice given to her by duff. "It was basically just, 'Remember why you do what you do -- 'cause you love it.' I mean, it definitely stinks when there's an early call time and it's not the best part when you're doing the same thing over and over. There's downs. But remember why you do it. It's not only because you love the business side of it, but looking out and seeing girls smile, you know. When there's not much, when they're going through a negative time in their life, being the one positive thing that they can hold on to, I mean, that's really amazing."
