Duff: 'Lohan Started Feud'

  • 15 September 2004

Actress [Hilary Duff](https://www.contactmusic.com/hilary-duff) has hit out again at teen rival [Lindsay Lohan](https://www.contactmusic.com/lindsay-lohan), blaming the MEAN GIRLS star for starting their feud.

The pair have been at each other's throats since Lohan, 18, discovered Duff was dating her ex-boyfriend, singer [Aaron Carter](https://www.contactmusic.com/aaron-carter).

But Duff, 17, insists Lohan's jealousy is behind the bickering.

The [A Cinderella Story](https://www.contactmusic.com/a-cinderella-story) actress says, "The thing is, it's all so childish and immature. This all started because we both dated Aaron Carter, and she went around telling everybody that I was a horrible person who had stolen her boyfriend. She then got p\*ssed off because I worked with [Chad Michael Murray](https://www.contactmusic.com/chad-michael-murray) after she had worked with him on [Freaky Friday](https://www.contactmusic.com/freaky-friday).

"She called him up and said all these awful things about me, which she then repeated to the press. I don't think I can take it anymore. It's so hurtful. Sometimes I feel like I really hate her, which is pretty extreme for me, because I don't hate anybody."

But Duff insists she is prepared to rise above the rift: "She's always trying to spread stories about me, but the funny thing is, I know so many stories about her that I could tell you right now, but I'm not going to, because I don't think people should know. I don't want her to get mad at me for telling them. And you know what the funny thing is in all this? I just want us to be friends - that's all."
