Mandy Moore Salutes Hilary Duff at L.A. Tour Finale With Mom-Group Allies in Attendance

The public show of support underscores visible cohesion in Duff's circle despite fallout from Ashley Tisdale's “toxic mom group” essay.

Overview

  • Hilary Duff closed her sold-out Small Rooms, Big Nerves tour on Jan. 29 at The Wiltern in Los Angeles.
  • Mandy Moore shared Instagram Stories from the show, calling Duff a “sensational icon queen” and “forever a superstar.”
  • Reported group members Gaby Dalkin and Janice Lee attended the concert, and Moore posted footage of Matthew Koma and Taylor Goldsmith dancing in the crowd.
  • Ashley Tisdale’s early-January essay described leaving a “toxic mom group” without naming individuals, and she has since unfollowed Duff and Moore on social media.
  • Reactions have ranged from Matthew Koma’s mocking post about Tisdale to continued public solidarity among friends, as Duff readies a Feb. 20 album release via Atlantic Records.
