Hilary Duff graces the cover of Maxim’s January 2009 edition, and one behind-the-scenes photoshoot video has already been released. E! Online has released a second, longer, version of the photoshoot video!

Hilary Duff shares how exciting it is to be featured on Maxim magazine:

“It’s so exciting, you know, to be on the cover of this magazine. I’ve done it once before and then, I guess it’s just an honor, you know what I mean? To kind of get that title is huge. I work really hard, but you never expect things like this to come around. I guess it’s… it’s just exciting.”

Also, Hilary was seen heading to a Christmas party with her mom Susan at George Lopez’s house.

Access Hollywood aired a behind-the-scenes look at Hilary Duff’s new photoshoot with Maxim Magazine for their 2009 edition. It gives a summary of the interview, as well as some fantastic footage of the photoshoot:

Also, it looks like there was a very limited release Best Of Hilary Duff 2009 Calendar in some countries in Asia. You can read more about that here.

Barney Miller, who put up this version of the “Reach Out” music video (likely the first, though not final, edit of the video), talked about collaborating on the video.

Barney Miller is the founder / editor of Company X. He collaborated with Phil Andelman to create the “Reach Out” music video, both sharing the same vision and aesthetic for the final product. Phil directed the video and Barney Miller was responsible for the edit. Phil says that Barney’s sense of pacing is shrewd, with each cut having a “tight punch”, which definitely was the case in the final product!!

Barney said this of the video:

“The goal was to really conceptualize a defining transformation in Hilary’s career, in a classic party atmosphere. Philip eased Hilary into the shoot and guided her through the visual storytelling process. There was some trepidation from management as to whether the treatments were too risqué, but in the end, I think we realized Phil’s vision beautifully.”

The music video was said to draw inspiration from fashion photography, trying to capture a sense of still photography while also a sense of quick movement. They wanted to make it energetic without being frenetic, grabbing Hilary’s natural nuances in the music and translating that to the video.

Hilary Duff’s latest video podcast takes us into part 3 in the behind-the-scenes look at the making of the “Reach Out” music video. In this video, it’s about 2am when Hilary continues filming the last shots of the evening. At least she can stay nice and warm in the hot tub for those sexy scenes! Love it when Ryan is lip synching!

Hilary takes some time to talk to her fans again at the end of the video, so be sure to watch it all!

Don’t forget to watch Part 1 and Part 2.

Hilary Duff’s 80th video podcast picks up on the heels of her last one, and offers a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the “Reach Out” music video.

The start of the podcast shows a lot of scenes of Prophet, but then it moves onto Hilary filming the sexy scenes of her new music video. How hard it must be to act all sexy with so many people watching and those bright lights! About half way through the video, Ryan is carrying Hilary on his back (so cute) to go film some of the outdoor scenes at night.

The latest Hilary Duff video podcast is a behind-the-scenes look at Hilary Duff’s new music video for “Reach Out”, which premiered yesterday (check it out!).

This is the third behind-the-scenes look at “Reach Out”, and altogether the most comprehensive. It features Hilary narrating the look into the video, with a lot more look at the outfits Hilary wears and some footage from the video.

In addition to the earlier featured behind-the-scenes video from Hilary Duff’s upcoming music video for “Reach Out” is a second look at it from Prophet:

Prophet is one of the artists featured in the remix version of “Reach Out”, and has been a part of the music video. Prophet’s behind-the-scenes video shows us quite a bit more insight into the music video! One scene of the video features Prophet sitting on a throne for the ‘lead in’ of the video sequence.

The set for the video is just so gorgeous!!

Hilary Duff’s latest video podcast is a behind-the-scenes look at the filming of Hilary Duff’s PSA for GLSEN, in which Hilary cautions people not to use the word “gay” in a casual negative way. The podcast is good, but I do miss all the question/answer ones that Hilary was doing!

And, as a reminder, this is Hilary’s GLSEN PSA:

Jonas Read and Austin Pence were on the set of Hilary Duff’s upcoming music video, “Reach Out”, and have put together a few clips of their experience and shared it! Jonas and Austin met Hilary the day she was on the Bonnie Hunt Show, and she invited them to the set.

As you can see from the video above, the set for the video was gorgeous. Jonas and Austin sat with Hilary’s mom Susan to watch her during the filming. And then Hilary comes to hang out with them after.
