Editorial Review:
She may have played a teenaged girl mistaken for a pop star in The Lizzie McGuire Movie, but after releasing a Christmas album in 2002, and crooning two songs on the movie's soundtrack, Hilary Duff looks like she means business. The only trouble is, she doesn't sound like it. Although dubbing her first album Metamorphosis, the disc is anything but. Her singing is as coy and kittenish as her on-screen persona and she mugs her way through most of the 13 songs with charm and aplomb, but little natural singing talent. But to her credit, the actress has managed to cover a multitude of vocal sins by hiring a team of crack producers, who double her voice whenever possible, giving many of the tracks the rather anthemic feel of a cheerleading squad. The best songs on the disc are the three masterminded by the Matrix, the same production team that oversaw Avril Lavigne's hit disc and they give the lissome actress's singing some attitude and grit, like on the infectious and spectacularly bratty "So Yesterday," and the cleverly conceived "Math," complete with heavy metal guitar riffs. But Duff is not inhabiting that saucy jailbait territory staked by Britney Spears. At the ripe old age sixteen, she's much more Barbies than bustiers. --Jaan Uhelszki
2008 UK pressing of the teen queen'a hit album featuring one bonus track ('Girl Can Rock') and different artwork than the U.S. pressing. Includes bonus track 'Girl Can Rock' and features an alternate cover to the US version. Already having had a #1 in the US Billboard Charts, with both her debut album and single, Hilary Duff is one of the States biggest and brightest stars. Best known as "Lizzie McGuire", Duff has enjoyed tremendous success, spawning a multi-million dollar grossing movie, two soundtracks (one for the TV show and one for the movie with sales in excess of 2 million), she even has her own magazine in the UK entitled "Lizzie McGuire" all at 15.

Rating: - Hilary Duff
This world is full of all different kinds of music, movies, and TV shows. We all have different tastes in these things, but mine might seem strange to some. The reason my tastes may seem strange is that one of my favorite singers and actresses is Hilary Duff. While many of her other fans are much younger than I am, I really enjoy her fun music, and happy movies. I remember watching her grow up on Lizzie McGuire; then, she branched out into movies, music, clothing, perfume, and home décor. In recent ... Read More
Rating:  - Duff debut
This is a fun lite pop album from Hilary Duff. Not a serious work of art, just easy listening, and what's wrong with that. Nothing. She's not the strongest singer, but she is entertaining. Here are some of the more enjoyable tunes:
So Yesterday
Come Clean
Workin it Out
Come Clean
The Math
Party Up
Metamorphisis
Why Not
