If you grew up in the 2000s Disney Channel era, you probably miss all the classics: "That’s So Raven," "Even Stevens," "Phil of the Future." But let’s not forget our queen: Lizzie McGuire. Whether Hilary was playing Lizzie or Sam, or just being your favorite pop star, she rocked this world, and her recent album proves that the girl can (still) rock. Here are nine reasons to pull out your old "Lizzie McGuire Movie" VHS and follow her on Spotify:
1. She mastered the eye roll.
I mean, just look at it. A good eye roll provides the strength to conquer the world.
2. She wears her heart on her sleeve.
“Someday you will find the place, it's the place where love takes over hate.” Modern-day Shakespeare?
3. Because Lizzie was everyone in junior high.
If being a tween was a GIF, pretty sure this would be it.
4. Because this is the most epic speech ever.
YOU TELL HIM!
5. Because "Wake Up" was our anthem.
“Could be New York, maybe Hollywood and Vine…”
6. Because when isn’t it the right time to sing this?!
If this doesn’t inspire you to reach for the stars, than what does?
7. Because this relationship is what dreams are made of.
We all want a Gordo.
8. She taught us how to be sassy (and impress the guy).
Comebacks are meant to be used.
9. Let's not forget about "Raise Your Voice!"
The storyline combined with her performance is genuinely heartbreaking.
10. She came back into the limelight gracefully.
It didn’t take a sex tape to get her back in the public eye, cough.
11. She never went crazy.
She’s the one Disney girl to keep her sanity. Hats off to you, girl.
