LAS VEGAS – Pop music is ephemeral by nature.
So when the rare welcome – and successful – resurrection occurs, it's all the more reason to celebrate.
Hilary Duffis having one of those moments when everything clicks.

Her primarily millennial fans are rabid to see her in concert. Her first album in more than a decade, "Luck … or Something,"releases Feb. 20. And after this weekend of sold-out shows at Voltaire at The Venetian and areturn May 22-24,Duff will hit amphitheaters and arenas in June for The Lucky Me Tour,her first world outingin nearly 20 years.
Duff's performance Friday, Feb. 13 at the 1,000-capacity opulent venue-lounge was part of her Small Rooms, Big Nerves Tour, which hit four major cities, including London and New York, before landing for this trio of shows in Vegas.
Even with an extensive acting background, the nerves mentioned in her tour name are understandable. It's one thing to be revered as an early aughts Disney Channel breakout on "Lizzy McGuire" and continue a notable acting career with star turns in"Younger"and "How I Met Your Father."
It's an entirely different set of neurons to command a stage with assurance and scamper down a catwalk, interact with fans a few inches away and remind people that you can sing.
