by Arieanna Schweber on September 13th, 2007

Hilary Duff, while performing at the Copps Coliseum in Hamilton, was honored with a great reward (see the video below). Hilary Duff received an award for ‘Largest Single Selling Solo Artist’ in the history of Copps Coliseum in Hamilton, with 45,000 tickets sold over 4 years.

Congratulations Hilary!! The coliseum gave Hilary Duff a jacket as part of her prize.

Duff, for all the bump and grind in her show, mostly by her exceptional backup dancers, has preserved much of the sweetness and ingenue charm that her fans associate with an earlier stage in her career.Her between-song patter was full of positive values for young teens and those about to become ones.

Before the show last night, HECFI chief executive officer Duncan Gillespie presented Duff with a special jacket saying Hilary Duff Number One. This was to recognize that she has sold more tickets at Copps than any other solo artist — 45,000, including a couple of almost instantly sold-out shows.

Her days of instant sellout might be on hold until she solidifies her new fan base. But if she keeps putting on shows like she did last night the fans will not desert her.

Last night’s show did not sell out, but there was a more than respectable turnout and they brought a real energy which, when mingled with Duff’s own and her band’s, made for a night of memorable entertainment for an awful lot of young people, whose faces were beaming after the show. - Hamilton Spectator
