Duff: 'Don't be fooled by my image'
Hilary Duff has hit out at those who judge her relationship with rocker Joel Madden based on their age gap and images.
Duff is perceived as the dream American teen, blonde, beautiful and just 18. Madden in contrast is the 26-year-old tattooed and pierced member of rock band Good Charlotte.
But she insists images can be deceptive: "You're automatically prejudging us because Joel has tattoos or I have blond hair. He has tattoos so he's bad, I smile all the time so I'm perfect."
Madden concurs: "I'm the most normal, low-key, sit-at-home, watch-TV type. She's made me more social, 'Come on and hang out with my friends!' It's not me going, 'Come on, Hilary, get on a motorcycle and ride into the sunset to a raging party!'"
