Duff wants son to avoid showbusiness career

Hilary Duff London, Oct 25 (IANS) Singer-actress Hilary Duff wants to keep her son away from a career in showbusiness because she grew up feeling “isolated” as a child star.

The 24-year-old, who is expecting a baby boy with husband Mike Comrie next year, was thrust into the spotlight as a 14-year-old with the lead role in Disney TV show “Lizzie MCGuire”.

“I don’t think there’s a way to stop it - I think kids know what they want but I just pray to God that’s not what he (my son) wants. From when I started to now, the industry is so different. I mean, there’s such an obsession with people’s private lives that I really don’t think was there before,” contactmusic.com quoted Duff as saying.

“These shows about digging into people’s lives and wanting to embarrass everybody and show that, like, we’re human beings, too. It’s just so invasive, and it’s just a different business than it used to be,” she added.
