Hilary Duff made some of the best bubblegum pop songs, but Dignity sees her metamorphose into a moody electro princess, with a dark hairstyle to match. Her jump dancewards is curious commercially, but thoroughly worthwhile artistically: the best cuts here hold their own against Kylie, though the more apt comparison is Rachel Stevens' fantastic but underperforming solo album.

Duff takes a while to find her style.

For her fourth record, the nineteen-year-old Duff set out to make an adult dance-pop record, with surprisingly successful results.

Dignity is bland by any standard. Dance music, after all, isn't supposed to be "dignified."

Duff strives to be socially and emotionally relevant while fun, but fails to hit a single one. One has to admire Duff for at least trying, but itòÀÙs hard to take her seriously when there are Care Bears more intimidating.

I like it, it's a good CD. However, it would be better if she sang her song LIVE. I just saw Hilary Duff on T.V. and she was totally faking it. Other than that; yes, it is a good CD. |

Hilary has come a long way since her first album, and Dignity just hits it out of the park! Dignity makes it so much easier to relate to her and the songs actually mean something to her and to us. I love her new style and hope others see how far she has come! Way to go Hil! |

This is Hilary's best album by far! I have been listening to her for as long as i can remember, and she did a great job with Dignity! My favorite tracks are With Love, Gypsy Woman, and Stranger. Great Job,Hilary!!! |

I think Hilary's managment is the best.. She wants to move on to a new kind of music .. She wants us to know new area of her talent .. and she can't move with full abum - huge risk - so she released "Play with Fire" which is mix between her old teen style and new dance pop style .. Then she let her hit " With Love " comes out.. Good album Good improvement

I didn't like this CD by Hilary too much. Some of her songs like 'Stranger', 'With Love,' and 'Gypsy Woman' were awesome, but songs like 'Never Stop' and 'Dreamer' were way too Bubblegum for me. I think her vocals are getting better, but she's appealing to too young of an audience. (6-9 years). If she wants to attract an older audience, she'll need to get rid of the Bubblegum songs, and have more normal pop songs. Over all, pretty good CD. |

I think Hilary ann Lisa Duff has got a great sense of music and Lyrics. She's even a great actress and fashion designer and I think I'm like her cuz even I love acting, singing, songwriting and fashion designing |

This, By far, is the greatest album Hilary has put out there. I love the fact that she actually wrote the songs on this album. If you really listen to the words, you might find them a bit inspiring. In the song Dignity, you find yourself saying ' Wow, that is so true' I just love everything Hilary does, but this is my favorite. She has deffinatly changed from bubble gum pop star to adult contemporary artist. Great album Hil! |

I think Hilarys new album is pretty cool. I LOVED her first album coz it had such catchy songs and they were all sooobubbly and cool.I just loved it. her second one was pop/punk cool. though her third one was a bit dissapointing she didnt release much singles but then she had a new album out;brunette hair siuts hilary and she is more sophisticated I think.Play with fire was ALRIGHT but I dont think it was the best song in the world. But I love "with love" because its funky and electric pop sorta style...Well Hilary has grown and her album is really cool. |

Hilary duff is a great artist of course but...she has become slightly fakeish....Like her hair I loved it when it was blond but it is great now of course she can totally pull of a different hair color!!! Hilary duff is a great actress she has started in many movies and they all turned out awesome!!!!!! Dignity is the best CD she has done so far! but I wish that she would have included all of the songs that are not in CD or are not on the origion Cd most wanted and Hilary duff. They have added songs to them which is not fair for thoughs of us who have to buy the Cds and our parents yell at us if we buy the same one twice just for three extra songs. DIGNITY gets a 10 but Hilary gets a 9.5 in my book because i can swear that on ellen she was faking it... |

I like this album better than her last album where she was trying to be all rockish because of her rocker boyfriend. I love With Love and Play With Fire. In this album pretty much all her songs were very easy to dance to. If you look at some other reviews look for Emma's review, because I totally and completely agree with her. |

I think Hilary really did put a lot into this album. Anyone who truly knows Hilary, she really made this album personal. All her songs on the album have great hooks. The best ones on the album i would have to say are Dignity, Gypsy Woman, Dreamer, Happy, Burned, and Play With Fire. BEST DUFF ALBUM BY FAR!!!! |

I love her cd! i have mthe first 2 cd's ever put out which were the more poppy sounds! They were awsome, but her new album really surprised me! This is awsome! My favorite song is outside of you because the words fit perfectly to something in my life! And that goes for a few other songs she has. She always know how to brighten my day with cd. I can turn it on and put it on anysong and it fits the day! I love this! VERY VERY DIGNIFIED LEMME TELL YA! I dont think its at all adult but I like it anyway people talk about it! And forget about the bubble gum stuff, thats what makes this cd awsome besides the other pop/r&b/dance! GOOD JOB HIL!!! I LOVE THIS CD! |

I did not like Hilary Duff's music career. I hated the type of music she did prior to the cancellation of Lizzie McGuire. However, something told me to pick up this cd and I loved it. I am now a newly cristen Hilary Duff fan thanks to this cd. I mean every song wether you call it bubblegum or not has a story to it and that's what an album is suppose to be about. I know on some songs like Happy and Dreamer and Outside of You she is still trying to appel to her younger fan base and Hey you can't blame her for that because those are the people who put her where she is now. However, as soon as she sung the first lyric in Stranger I knew something was going to be different about this cd. I have a deep passion for poetry and when I heard the song Stranger at the end of it I almost wanted to cry because the lyrics were so profound. My favorite songs are Stranger, Gypsy Woman, With Love and I Wish. Those songs are the srongest on the album. Play With Fire is an ok song but it could have been better. I love the beats, the lyrics are emotionally empowering but not enough to classify as adult. Overall two thumbs up from me. |

Hil has done a fantastic job on this CD! Its shows that she is not afriead to really apply herself and go the disdence for a good review! Its scary to see that she is growing up so much since she did one of her first CDs "Metamorphosis" witch came out in 2003, it is now 2007 and hilary has had another great CD! I would say keep on going hill your one of the best! |

Hilary when i listen to the album i really feel what your words mean. It has to do with your relationship in it's good and bad times. It's really cool that this was your first time co-producing the album and i think it's your best one yet!You've come a long way since"Metamorphosis" and know "Dignity" has a new fresh sound,beat,and rythm.Also you have really grown into yourself and you look amazing on the album with your glow, confidence, and your dark hair which is really pretty. Hilary your such an inspiration to alot of people and thanks for sharing your writing on the album it takes alot to sing form heart and go public about it.Hope you have good life and keep up the good work! |

I agree with anyone who has mentioned the improvement of Hilarys voice, the album is great, the lyrics are very honest and very new for her. I also agree with anyone who has mentioned the fact that she needs to start singing live, it's pointless writing a great album if she's never actually going to sing it. Like a few of her other albums, the music to some of the songs is very repetitive but all over it's a good album. I'd say the best song is Happy. |

I think this is the best hilary duff album she has ever made. she has definately grown up! her vocals are also getting better. my favorite songs on this album is "stranger", "dignity", "with love", and "gypsy woman." i think after "gypsy woman" the songs are alike and are too 'kiddieish.' but overall this is a good album... and her new look totally matches her new CD. also, i'm glad that hilary is starting to dance a little in her music videos. she's not too too bad. can't wait for the next one to come out. |

She is becoming kind of like Britney in her music videos and I don't like it! She should stop trying to be like Britney in my opinion! But I am glad that she is trying to grow up and stop being all bubble gummy. I like that she is becoming more of an adult. Good job HILARY! |

I think she is trying a bit to hard.The songs all sound the same to me.I think she is trying to be mucher but alot of the songs on her cd are so young sounding.I love some of the songs like Stranger,With Love but the rest dont seem to be as good.Overall The cd is pretty good.Keep it up Hilary. |
