Hilary Duff graces the TV screen once more with her charismatic presence as the former ‘Lizzie McGuire’ star continues to focus on her acting and music career, calling the past year a “big year” for her.

Placing more emphasis on her professional life, Duff has already landed a TV series and has come up with a new pop album.

"Everyone knows a lot of what goes on in my personal life, and thank God I have exciting things happening in my professional life as well, like the show and my record,” Duff said.

In an interview with E! News, the 27-year-old singer dropped hints as to what her fans can look forward to on her latest album, including the new single ‘Sparks’, a bubbly dance track that comes with sweet lines and catchy whistling tunes.

As she opened about her new music release, Duff revealed that she had collaborated with Swedish singer-songwriter Tove Lo on the album.

"It is a little bit of electro-pop, a lot of it is just straight-forward pop and some of it has gotten pretty dance-y, which is cool,” the singer said. “Some songs still have a little bit of a folky side."

All in all, the Disney alum described her latest music project to have “a lot of different lives”, attributing the use of different genres to the long break that she took as a music artist.

Aside from acknowledging the delay of her much-anticipated album, Duff also shared her excitement in landing a role on the new comedy series ‘Younger.’

With the show premiering on TV Land last March 31, fans of the actress can now follow the story of Liza (Sutton Foster), a 40-year-old woman who has just gone through a divorce and seeks to take on the identity of a 26-year-old.

In her pursuit to turn back the clock, Liza meets Kelsey, played by Duff. Naturally, this is followed by hilarious circumstances as Liza and Kelsey make a great effort in surviving an aggressive work environment in which audiences can point out the differing approaches that two women of different ages use to succeed and survive.

Moreover, Duff opened up about being a mother to 3-year-old son Luca and having a positive view when it comes to accepting one’s body image.

"I'm, like, accepting of what it is," she said. "I'm not ever going to be 110 pounds again, so working with what you've got and just trying to feel strong and powerful I think is a good motto for a mom who's 27."
