“Very, very bad. It did not happen then,” Duff agreed. “She’s 35 now, we’re cool.”
The late-night talk show host then asked Duff if she was a fan of her costar’shit show,Sex and the City.
“I mean, yes. Aren’t we all?” Duff asked. “It’s a forever goodie.”
Duff went on to admit that it’s difficult to see Corbett as anyone but furniture designer Aidan Shaw fromSex and the City.“In my mind he’s Aidan,” she told Meyers. “I did call him John on set. But I have to — not suffer through — but, you know, a lot of my life I’m called Lizzie [McGuire], so, it’s just, that’s what it is.”
Pretty soon Duff and fans alike will get to see Corbett reprise his breakout character.
