As the fervor stemming from Ashley Tisdale’s “toxic” mom group essay continues to unfold across parts of the internet, Hilary Duff — whose husband Matthew Koma entered the chat, further escalating the dramatics — is tuning it all out.
On Wednesday, Duff ramped up the anticipation for her new album, teasing a new song about dive bar hookups, inconvenient roommates, and a once-red-hot romance fizzling into the tombs of relationship graveyards.
“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,” sings Duff in a video posted to social media. “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.”
The multi-hyphenate is set to drop her first LP in more than 10 years, titled Luck… or Something, on Feb. 20. She has since released the first single, “Mature,” in November, her first solo music offering since 2015’s Breathe In. Breathe Out., which was produced by Koma.
Duff is also scheduled to kick off her sold-out, four-date Small Rooms, Big Nerves 2026 tour on Jan. 19 at O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London, which will be followed by a Valentine’s Day weekend residency at the Venetian Resort’s Voltaire in Las Vegas.
While fans wait to learn more about the upcoming track — no release date or title has been announced yet — Duff has also been roped into drama surrounding fellow Disney Channel veteran Tisdale. Last week, Tisdale penned an essay for The Cut detailing how she broke things off with a mom group after a series of scenarios made her feel iced out and like she was in high school again, sans musical.

Although Tisdale didn’t name names, online sleuths speculated that the group in question included the likes of Mandy Moore, Meghan Trainor, and Duff. Soon after, Koma posted an Instagram Story photo of himself recreating Tisdale’s photo from her Cut essay alongside a fake headline that declared, “When You’re The Most Self Obsessed Tone Deaf Person On Earth, Other Moms Tend To Shift Focus To Their Actual Toddlers.” In a subheadline, Koma added, “A Mom Group Tell All Through A Father’s Eyes,” with the caption, “Read my new interview with @TheCut.”
While there’s no word yet from any alleged members of Tisdale’s enigmatic former mom group, Duff’s husband did repost his wife’s video, succinctly hyping: “Let’s. Fucking. Gooooo.”
