She gained global recognition in 2001 starring in the hit series “Lizzie McGuire” and then brought her character to the big screen with “The Lizzie McGuire Movie.” Duff went on to co-star in the hit films “Agent Cody Banks,” “Cheaper By the Dozen,” “Cinderella Story,” “Raise Your Voice,” “Perfect Man” and “Material Girls.” Her upcoming films include “War, Inc.,” starring John Cusack and Sir Ben Kingsley, and the animated feature “Foodfight.” Duff also has her own fragrance, “With Love,” as well as her “Stuff by Hilary Duff” line of clothing and merchandise.

Her solo debut CD, “Metamorphosis,” her self-titled album and her “Most Wanted” CD each sold 3 million records. In all, Hilary Duff has sold over 15 million CDs worldwide. Duff is hosting TEEN CHOICE for the second time – a first in the show’s nine-year history. She has received a total of 11 TEEN CHOICE nominations over the years for her work in TV, film and music.
Nick Cannon’s prolific career spans the film and television genres.
