When it was announced that Hilary Duff was taking on Faye Dunaway’s role in the remake of the classic “Bonnie and Clyde,” Dunaway said some not so nice comments about Hilary’s acting abilities. Duff retorted by saying that, “None of my fans even knew who she is.”

But Duff defends herself on Tuesday’s episode of “The Bonnie Hunt Show” and says, “She started acting way later than I did so I think I have time to grow and grow with each project. I am learning and work hard at my craft.”

Bonnie says, “I think even Faye went through a time, if you look historically, where some people might have said that about her. She has great beauty but she proved herself.”

Duff admits that what she said was mean but says, “It’s not ok for people to take stabs at you and to say mean things for no reason.”

From entertainment and pop culture to the news, Chicago native Bonnie will talk with her audience and crew about anything and everything that’s on her mind. “The Bonnie Hunt Show” is produced by Bob & Alice Productions and paraMedia inc. in association with Telepictures Productions and is distributed by Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution.
