Hilary Duff hopes to "impress" her gay fans with her new music

Hilary told Variety: "We're getting something really soon. I have been hard at work in the studio with my husband [Matthew Koma] and a few other amazingly talented people.

"[My fans] are going to hear something so soon, like in the blink of an eye."

Hilary hasn't released an album since Breathe In. Breathe Out. in 2015, but she always planned to make another record.

She shared: "I always knew I was going to return to music.

"I needed to feel safe and I needed to have the right people in my corner and be absolutely 100 percent ready.

"Honestly, I needed to have 10 years of life under my belt. I needed a lot to say. This album feels like the inner workings of my brain and I really am so excited to connect with people again on that level, that very forward-facing level."

Hilary ultimately hopes to impress her gay fans with her new material.

She said: "You know it's all for them. It's just to impress them."
