AMERICAN actress and singer Hilary Duff has announced she will be hitting the road for a world tour.

The announcement follows the release of her single Mature last November, which marked the end of her decade-long hiatus from the music industry.

Hilary is set to drop her sixth studio album Luck… or Something on February 20.

After rising to fame as the main character of the Disney Channel blockbuster, Lizzie McGuire, Duff kicked off her music career in 2003 with Billboard 200’s number one Metamorphosis.

Her first three albums alone sold a collective 15 million copies worldwide, and she has a total of 3.5million monthly listeners on Spotify.

At the final stop of her Small Rooms, Big Nerves mini-tour in Los Angeles recently, Duff announced her upcoming world tour.

Towards the end of the show, she invited three lucky fans to the stage to dance with her.

Once the dancing was over, Hilary gave each participant a T-shirt to put on, with each top featuring the words “World,” “Tour,” and “Loading…”

The three audience members turned in unison to reveal the words to the crowd which sparked an enormous cheer.

On February 12 Hilary Duff announced the full tour dates.
