HILARY DUFF ROLE BASED ON BRITNEY SPEARS?



While she's quietly been building a relationship with hockey star Mike Comrie over the past few months, Hilary Duff spent Saturday night on an evening out with the girls.

The Lizzie Maguire actress appeared in high spirits as she left Central nightclub in Hollywood, where she enjoyed time with her older sister Haylie and a few friends.

As far as her professional life is concerned, Duff stars alongside John Cusack in War, Inc., which is scheduled to premiere at Sundance this month.

Speaking to press about Hilary's character in the film, Cusack recently told the Sun Times: "She plays a very slutty pop star, which is the real joke. The idea of Hilary, who is so classy and wholesome, playing a slut is funny."

Interestingly enough, it looks as if the role is actually modeled on troubled pop tart Britney Spears, as Cusack teased: "In our movie, she's a slutty singer who wants to be like one the girls in the headlines now, although we don't need to name names."
