Hilary Duff Re-Created Her Iconic "That's So Gay" Commercial, And I'm Sorry, But That's Fighting For Gay Rights
The year was 2008.
Barack Obama was just elected president.
Kim Kardashian's biggest gig was as a WrestleMania host.
Lady Gaga took pictures with SodaStream machines so she could get one for free.
And Hilary Duff ended homophobia once and for all.
Back in 2008, Hilary did a "That's so gay" commercial.
The commercial has become somewhat legendary on Gay Twitter.
that’s so gay? more like that’s so SLAY (of hilary duff) #Pride2022 😋😋
Like, you'll always see people tweeting about it.
saying “that’s so gay” not in a homophobic way but as an attempt to summon hilary duff
So it was really exciting to see Hilary acknowledge it on TikTok with a 2022 re-creation.
We all know Hilary Duffs career highlight was doing the “that’s so gay is not okay” commercial
Here it is:
