Young Stars-Living up to Britney's Expactations?

Hilary Duff-The Next Britney?

Hilary Duff and Amanda Bynes are about to graduate to the big time. On the heels of ''Agent Cody Banks''' $14 million weekend, Disney Channel staple Duff is gearing up for the May 2 big-screen version of her quirky comedy ''Lizzie McGuire'' and is set to star in Warner Bros. ''A Cinderella Story.'' (We'll see whether she appears in MGM's just-announced Banks sequel.) ''It's her combination of empowerment and vulnerability that's accessible,'' says Disney Channel exec Rich Ross, who agreed to end McGuire's 65-episode run so that Duff could launch her film career. ''She's authentic -- you won't see her on the cover of Maxim.''
-----------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, Nickelodeon alum Bynes, who now stars on The WB's ''What I Like About You,'' plays a free-spirited teen in ''What a Girl Wants,'' opening April 4.

''Everyone wanted this part,'' says director Dennie Gordon. ''Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Alexis Bledel...but when I met Amanda, I knew she was the one to carry the movie. The boys think she's hot, and the girls think she could be their best friend.''

Isn't that kind of a kids movie?

It sounds heeeeella corny. Britney can do better than that...

I can definitly see why Britney wanted the part though. Even if it's kiddy, I could see Britney do the part.

I don't think Britney wanted the part. Maybe the director was saying crap just to make the movie look better. lol

Britney in that movie? I'm glad she didn't get it. The story sounds cheesy and yeah.

Im glad Britney didn't take that part because the movie looks more of a teen movie anyways. I like Amanda she's a good actress, but that movie is not Britney-style, Brit can do better.

Aww....I would have LOVED to see Jess or Alexis in that role! I think "What A Girl Wants" looks awesome
