I remember when she was attached to Poltergeist 4 and a KFC-themed horror movie back in mid 00s.

Vegas today. Curious to see the staging

It should be studied the way she somehow erased that movie from the media and GP conscience.

The good sis did absolutely no press for a film she exec. produced (I can't remember where I saw that but swear she did) and left the rest of the cast to flail in the wind. An image conscious queen tbh

What was she thinking though? Tbh I'd love to pick her brain about that entire 'era'.

Omg KFC as in ....the chicken? could have been camp tho. But most likely more akin to Foodfight

Long shot, but hoping she'll debut a new song live or throw in another oldie throwback

I also hope she does something different tonight but I have a feeling it will be pretty much the same thing as the other 4 shows which is fair lol

Gurl... I've been here since 2004 and no one besides ATRL cared for BIBO

well unfortunately it's the same thing now, only thing she has are variants that might give her same debut week numbers...

I was around circa 2014-15 and the only time there was significant "hype" imo was when Chasing The Sun dropped which quickly deflated. AAY came and went, until Sparks came out the next April and got some love promo wise and in certain online spaces, but I think that rollout already had diminishing returns from CTS and AAY the prior year. She was also starring in Younger which took away the focus from music both from a PR standpoint and in general.

This time around my 69 year old mother is aware of her comeback, and even sent me a link about Hilary's vegas show. Just goes to show you the extent of the online marketing happening that we don't even see. All the noise from the SRBN tour felt more massive than anything from the BIBO era (at least on social media). Not to mention Roommates has legit radio support by the label which is almost unheard of for her. I feel (and hope) we're underestimating the power and reach that the world tour announcement is gonna have, too.

Yes CTS had hype until people heard it , AAY managed to go top 20 in Australia thanks to The Voice performance and even managed to get a certification

Roomates doesn't have radio support, its audience impression is like 2m, songs outside top 20 on Pop have no audience at all. It's like when Madonna had both GMAYL and GGW in top 40 and all those PR articles were talking about it being her most successful era since Music because of that.

small rooms, big nerves alone had more hype than (1 week of promo) BIBO. Let's not.

And based on what are you claiming that? You do realize these two songs are doing worse on streaming than any BIBO single?

Sparks only got the bump it did on Spotify after RCA playlisted it the week of album release. It found some (short term) stability after that and went viral a few times so it saw a few bumps from those. That's the only reason it charted that one week.

This is not true. Sparks charted on both US and Global Spotify in top 200 since its debut to mid May and later re-entered again top 200 with album until late July so there was obviously interest far more in Sparks. There was excitement among pop forums because it was fresh and great song and still is career best song. There is no excitement around these two new songs at all.

Anyway, I hope she matches BIBO's first week sales and debuts in top 10. That is the unfortunately the most we can look for when it comes to album.

What are we going to do to make Roommates a hit!?

We all want her to do well, but we never followed Hilary for chart numbers. Her singles were never huge anyway, even when they went viral or became pop-culture touchstones. She's always been stronger with albums as full bodies of work. And honestly, Hilary doesn't seem obsessed with chasing hits, so why should we be?

She's doing what she wants, she looks happy, and she's selling out dates, so either way, that's a win for her and for us.

We're here for the music and the shows. I'm just happy Hilary is back and fully invested in reclaiming her place as the Disney IT girl of the early 2000s.

I know, I just got trigged by nonsense that his era has more hype than BIBO... when it's not even close

Having said that I am impressed by the fact that she booked O2 in London and MSG, hopefully tour sells out.

sure hun, u can believe whatever you want I guess

me too! i was expecting a target version, not a walmart one, no shade dddd. maybe (mine) will be available in the us through target? (after rsd)

Maybe if they do a deluxe edition it will be exclusive to target

I think if Hilary is smart and really has her mojo she should quickly follow with another album to keep the momentum going

people are gonna want more music after this tour

but then again I don't want her to get burned out again and take another hiatus

And return when she's in 50s

I can't at people saying this tour won't sell and why is she doing a long tour

Hilary was a touring force in her prime days it what's made her albums sell since radio refused to play Disney channel artist back then

The metamorphosis tour was so popular it had four legs despite only two singles being officially released

Yes, Jessica Simpson was attached too.
That was back in 2006.

Her latest reel uses the studio version of Weather For Tennis! I love the production, is it me or is it giving Most Wanted track vibes?

Love that backing vocal melody! I feel like that's the final chorus where the drums and backing vocals kick in fully. Honestly I hope she drops Weather For Tennis as a surprise with the tracklist reveal 🎾

Also love the irony of it cutting off at if you let me finish a sentenc -

Ssoooo where's that track list? I thought it was coming this week and it's the last day of it.

The way this would've sweeped the Razzies and would've become a cult classic in the long run with a legacy sequel later on

Why was i hoping the Vegas stage would look different 🫠🫠

That proposal though, what a moment

Not the Italy snub in the world tour... you released an album exclusively for us 20 years ago

less than a week til the album. OMGGGG

This might be my favorite look of hers so far
