The 19 year-old actress and singer is drained by her constant touring and promotional work, and admits that sometimes she feels like walking away from her career.
Duff told Stella magazine, "I go get stressed out and I do get sad sometimes about the constant work. When I travel a lot usually I’m just so tired that I just want to go to my hotel room and sleep."
The star of the television series Lizzie McGuire would also like to become a serious actress, but gets frustrated that many directors still view her as a little girl. She added, "They’ll meet with me. They’ll want to go somewhere and talk, ask questions. Then they’ll call and say, ‘We really love her, she’s great, wow.’ But they have no imagination. I know people look at me and think I’m just so mainstream, ‘She’s just a blonde, young girl.’ But I want to be really artistic."
