How KennieJD REALLY Feels About The Duff Sisters & Material Girls | In Defense Of Ep. 24

[@MrRoro_su]

Aly and aj 's sisterhood movie about being poor after losing their money. Is so much better

[@MIracal09]

Yess!! Cow Belles used to be my movie!!

[@MrRoro_su]

Was just thinking this

[@personalglow]

omg Cowbells, i almost completely forgot about that movie! I used to love it!

[@hexgirlsgroupie]

was looking for a comment like this bcuz i immediately thought of cow belles lol

[@meghannicole1474]

Kennie: "I actually didn't really like anything Hilary Duff did." Also Kennie: Belts out Come Clean

[@mikaylamcfadden7866]

Right she actually got her phone and lyrics down lol

[@parisewellington3664]

I feel it is my duty to inform people who are not from Kennies channel that she can in fact sing and you should listen to her music on spotify🙂

[@princeorii7815]

I want “Bruting hot 25 year old teenager “ on Spotify

[@matxalenc8410]

Do it, 'cause you know she's not gonna promote herself!

[@blueismylove3128]

After the Come Clean moment in the vid, I think this clarification is quite necessary 😂😂

[@hollaatthekid1796]

She was my number one artist I listened too on Spotify last yr. I listened to Spotify while I worked chat support for Peloton and I LOVED being able to listen to music and not talk my entire day. I have done that for companies since 2015 and I am going to MISS it since I am back on a phone contract.

[@broomhilder]

My favorite song by Kennie is Let Her Down Easy. Such good vibes ✨

[@gingermami9650]

Suggestion for "in defense of" (if it hasn't been done) is SUCKER PUNCH. I watched it a couple of weeks ago and thought while it was by no means good, it has some redeeming qualities.

[@LisaFrank39]

Yes that's a good one. The movie made no sense

[@kalesmoothi333]

that’s one of my favorite movies 😭

[@JessieDee13]

@@kalesmoothi333 i loved it too

[@blueprint8187]

I wanted an action movie from sucker punch. Not that reality in a fantasy of another reality that wasn’t a real reality but another fantasy

[@thecavalieryouth]

**gasps** fucking YESSSSSSSS! omg I remember really enjoying that movie. Oscar Isaac, Carla Gugino, that soundtrack?? Chef's kiss, ugh!

[@charlenebarleen3105]

Kennie trying to download old windows to play old barbie games is something I relate to SO HARD. I downloaded an emulator to play Barbie Princess Bride :D

[@blueismylove3128]

Something I'd do to be able to play Purple Place again.

[@BlackLasher]

If you want a movie about a rich person losing their fortune, then the original Overboard with Goldie Hawn is pretty good.

[@fashgirl310]

Okay ?? This is a classic that cannot be beat. And the romance *chef’s kiss*

[@ashleecarrero1466]

I love that movie!

[@ambriaashley3383]

It's a decent movie - but a little creepy considering the man kidnaps the woman & essentially manipulates & deceives her into their romance at first...

[@leigy100]

Also, Goldie Hawn had a similar Oscar-nominated role with Private Benjamin….with was remade as Cadet Kelly with Duff. Seems like Duff’s team was almost trying to tailor her after Goldie Hawn in some ways.

[@carter333]

I was a HUGE Hilary Duff fan as a kid (and I loved the song Material Girl) and I remember seeing this in theaters and being disappointed LOL

[@ArianaWoods112]

You literally captured my feelings for Hilary Duff as a child. And that was also my favorite song of hers. Your description of the premise sounds kind of like cowbells by Aly & AJ on Disney Channel.

[@babytooty04]

Ngl you gave Fefe Dobson's vibe on that cover Come Clean. But on that note, Hilary Duff had three good singles. Come Clean, Fly and So Yesterday. Then maybe Our lips are sealed which is a cover and This is what dreams are made of from the Lizzie McGuire movie.

[@tiadeni]

Fly was my JAM 😭

[@NeidaTeresa]

Hearing someone who can actually sing well do "Coming Clean" is so.... like I had no IDEA what I was missing!

[@ambriaashley3383]

Right? That tone! Those runs. I feel brand new 🤣🤣

[@evildoesnotsleep-x2b]

Hillary Duff is great on Younger. She's playing a smart yet confused publishing associate who later girlbosses her way around the industry

[@Stopfollowingmeplz8]

Ohhh, I'll have to check that out. Hadn't heard of it

[@marquisehebbler9471]

“Get yourself a cookie” *me literally putting a fudge stripe in my mouth* 😮

[@shanzoni1200]

I remember not even being able to finish this movie back in the day

[@MegaLove098]

Be honest...who else was singing along to Come Clean? 🤣

[@lina-yu4on]

my 10 year old self whole heartedly believed that this movie was peak cinema

[@Sharpe1502]

Come Clean was 90’s girls’ anthem. 😂

[@ZoeyChilds]

Same. I wasn’t a Hilary Duff fan either, but that was my jam also as well and your impersonation was spot on😂🤣

[@lamarhere2944]

This and Cowbells from Disney Channel, which both were released in 2006, were influenced by The Simple Life. And if the O. twins were have acted in this film it would’ve had similar feedback as far as the film pushing their products. They would’ve had better chemistry though on screen maybe because they’re used to acting together. Anne H. and Lindsay Lohan being in this instead would’ve probably been interesting since they were both charismatic and expressive young actors at the time. But yea, it’s better that they weren’t cast in this fiasco. Fun review as always. When you randomly at times break out in a song is your gift to us, thank you. 😄😁

[@DearxMyxSongs]

My nostalgia for the movie was for the cover song H&H did and the purple eyeshadow look they rocked. I was obsessed with that eyeshadow lol

[@Monochrome_11]

Oh why did i confused them with the Olsen Twins 😂😅

[@damiendupin2378]

Same thing.

[@izzyclare_]

Hillary Duff seems like such a sweet, genuine woman and a great mom, but wow her movies were insufferable. I was never a Lizzie McGuire kid so maybe I just don't have the same lens of nostalgia that others have, but A Cinderella Story was trash, Raise Your Voice was weird and WHY were they insistent on making her sing in every single movie??? Truly wild to me (Also, as a girl with big arms too, I understand the self-consciousness that comes along with that and I'm sure you don't need my validation anyway, BUT you're beautiful and your Jessica Rabbit is going to be perfect❤)

[@Vanessa-vz5cw]

I agree with everything except A Cinderella Story being trash. Every Jennifer Coolidge moment in that movie holds up to this day, in my mind no one will ever be a better evil step mother. But yeah aside from her the rest of the movie is stupid.

[@izzyclare_]

@@Vanessa-vz5cw you're totally right, Jennifer Coolidge makes everything better. She was my favourite part of that movie😂😭

[@matxalenc8410]

Now I admit, Lizzie can't sing like that, and you're right: she really shouldn't be singing in these movies, but Dignity was a good album.

[@uhuhuh1966]

@@matxalenc8410 Dignity was FIRE!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@Zyxie_Zyxie_Zyxie]

You should watch Jawbreaker it’s from the same guy who did gbf and it’s kinda the halfway point between heathers and mean girls (also if you could do cool world and maybe even death becomes her in the future too that’d be gr8 ❤)

[@shekinahwalker1848]

Kennie breaking out in song at full volume on my phone is an experience I didn’t know I needed

[@cceres]

I liked the version of Reach Out she did, and I'm literally the only person I know of. I generally felt like her music was fine, not good enough to seek out, not bad enough to change the channel, and she seemed like a decent enough person that I didn't want to hate it on principle.

[@Official_Meshay]

I liked Reach Out too. 👍🏾

[@ImmortalBroken]

I didn't like Hilary Duff til like 2007 when she put out that album, Dignity, which was pretty fire. It was more dance-pop than just pop, and suddenly I was seeing KZbin videos of her being a sultry brunette and playing gay clubs. Loved it! I never saw this movie but I'm still somehow shocked by it being a Sense & Sensibility (kind of) adaptation?!?

[@whitewolf561]

Nah I had to subscribe to you after our duet to 'Coming Clean' 🤣🤣 Literally made me feel like I have a distant friend 🥰💅🏾

[@yasminprosser4085]

The only thing I remember about this movie is seeing it on TV as a kid knowing nothing about the duff sisters and just thinking they did a great job at casting someone who looks like Hillary duff to be her sister lmao

[@chlckorita]

The most memorable thing about this movie is the duff sister's cover of material girl

[@whosthatchick5150]

You don’t understand the amount of joy that just hit me when I saw Kennie has uploaded 💗💗

[@gothamtruecrime]

Dear Kinnie, if you love uncanny CGI disasters please watch the live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie from 2014. MEGAN FOX plays April O'Neil. It was a critical failure with only a 21% on Rotten Tomatoes and cost a whopping $125-150 million to produce.

[@JayJay-17]

Also one of the actors that played one of the turtles said he had a horrible time making the film. He mentioned in a radio or podcast interview about the stuff he and the other actors who played turtles went through.

[@chinieesparrago4633]

PLEASE I want to hear how she feels about this!!! This movie's one of my guilty pleasures-I'm a huge tmnt fan, watch the ROTTMNT Movie on Netflix btw it's. So GOOD-bc I love Megan Fox (and lowkey thought Raph & Don were hot)! Sorry for the turtle actors though, they really went through a lot.

[@blueismylove3128]

I am the only one who thinks Megan Fox is actually a really good actress? She's been in horrible stuff and I think gets a bad name.

[@mikaylamcfadden7866]

@@blueismylove3128 yes I agree at the same time she made hella money

[@gabrielleduplessis7388]

I actually liked this movie. I liked the chemistry between Hayle and and Hilary and of course, one of the queens: Angelica Houston. I loved how she actually cared about her buisness and was not the villain character which she is also good at playing. I also liked (like Cow Belles) that they were never bad people, just naive and oblivious. At least they learned and grew a bit. I can never be mad at people who try to clear their dad’s name.

[@FulufheloCharms]

Hey Kennie. You can download any operating system onto a virtual machine on your current pc. It's like a pc simulation inside your pc. When you play that Barbie please give us a review. 😊❤️

[@VKitty]

I just remember that this movie started my past obsession with the corset belts and half corsets

[@emilaysjonas]

sounds a lot like cowbells w/ aly and aj which premiere in the same year

[@MisplacedRaven]

I remember watching this movie once at a sleepover in like, middle school lol. I barely remembered the premise, just that Hilary Duff was in it. But middle school me did have that song you sang on her ipod shuffle.

[@PersephonesLibrary]

Chiiiiiile I thought Aly and AJ did this movie 😂

[@Jampzz]

I was about to get genuinely defensive in the comments during ur opening statement till you started describing the plot when I realised I was mistaking this movie for Cow Belles which is the greatest Aly & Aj movie to ever crawl it's way out of Disney's armpit

[@Gabriellaella23]

10 minutes ago? Chile I’m early. 🍿 Edit I loved Hilary back in the day. Lizzie McGuire was my favorite Disney show at some point. Watched this movie once and never cared to watch it again though. However I watched A Cinderella Story all the time. Haha also my favorite song by her was Fly, but I never thought she could sing well. That song is a banger though. 😅

[@ninadowell7841]

I thoroughly enjoyed that song break. every second of it

[@cassiezombie4237]

Does anyone else notice that the title font is the same as Mean Girls? 🤔

[@zanderu007]

i was about to question my entire subscription to this channel and kennie's if come clean did not pass through your lips in that moment 🤣

[@Gothy_Guru]

I remember really liking this as a teen… kind of tempted to rewatch but in my defense I love Hilary so 😂

[@neivilde.1242]

this movie came out in 2006, same year as cow belles, a DCOM also starring sisters and with the same premise, and i constantly gow the two confused because i never saw either and was like wait who is playing in which? (i did end up watching cow belles eventually, not my fave dcom) also babrie secret agent was my shit i used to rent the game at the librbay and play it all the time. like i would get all the way through and play from the start again and again and again

[@NotAMuse]

I remember going to the movie theaters to watch it and leaving feeling unfulfilled.

[@Yep1850]

It always seemed funny to me that the font on the Material Girls cover is pretty much identical to the one used on the Mean Girls cover. I’m sure it was used a lot but given the history between Lindsay Lohan and Hilary Duff, it always amused me. 😂

In regards to wanting to play Barbie Secret Agent, I would advise buying a more dated laptop to help with making Windows 98OS work. Or you could try copying the Computer Game disk files into your Window x86 files (would advise looking at a tutorial for this), and trying to make your computer go into old school compatibly mode.

[@marisolania2696]

Lol for someone who isn’t a Hilary duff fan you sure knew every word to that song!! I’m biased because I LOVED Hilary Duff (her album was the first one I ever bought with my own money) and I was very much a Lizzie Maguire girlie. BUT this movie is literally ringing zero bells. I must’ve seen it but it is so forgettable I keep thinking of every other movie with this plot instead. But they’ve always had zero chemistry on screen together. Haylie’s acting can be a bit cringe.

[@danielbriggz]

Kennie always acting like she can't sing is the biggest KZbin cap

[@BeeKee404]

I grew up loving Hilary Duff and I still love her but I'll admit, not a lot of her movies are masterpieces. The only movie I felt super invested in was A Cinderella Story. That being said, I don't think all her movies are bad. Just not the best and that's how I personally feel about Material Girls. The acting is kind of corny and also the dialogue but I personally find it a fun movie. I honestly never really took it seriously. It was just a fun watch despite the bad acting. I did like the storyline of the maid who wanted her children back and how it ended with her finally reunited with them. I thought that was sweet. I also remember liking Ava's love interest and thought he was funny with his sarcastic monotune personality. I also had fun watching Hilary and Haylie play off of each other even if the characters didn't really have a believable sister chemistry. I know Hilary and Haylie are super close in real life so it was fun watching them work together. Maybe I'm just speaking as a Hilary Duff fan cause I feel like if anyone I wasn't really a fan of was in this movie, I wouldn't really care about it. Also Anjelica Huston is in this movie! ICON! Love her! Sorry if that came off as an afterthought. I kept reminding myself to include her but kept forgetting lol

[@leigy100]

Kennie, the movie DID NOT make its budget back. Can someone please tell Kenneth how it works. The studio/production company spent 15 million, then possibly 5 to ten million on promo. The theaters take about hLf of the box office….so a movie with a 15 million budget, plus 10 million promo, costs the studio 25 million. That means the movie needs to gross twice that at the box office to make back it’s budget, or break even. The movie grossed 16 million worldwide. That means that the studio saw 8 million for a project that cost them 20 to 25 million. They lost money.

[@ivoryselephant]

I have had the jail scene where she uses sand between toes to do a face mask? Facial? For years engraved into my brain anytime someone mentions this movie
