And a third commented: 'I need a trip.'
Lizzie McGuire followed the life of Lizzie, a relatable, clumsy, but sweet middle schooler navigating the ups and downs of adolescence.
Alongside her best friends, Miranda and Gordo, Lizzie dealt with a host of crushes, school drama, and embarrassing moments.
Following the TV show, The Lizzie McGuire Movie was released, with Lizzie travelling to
Rome
and getting mistaken for a pop star.
It became a box-office success and a beloved send-off to the series, which ended after this.

Chris Hemsworth recalls 'out of body experience' performing alongside Ed Sheeran
Australian movie star Chris Hemsworth has recalled having an "out of body experience" while performing alongside Ed Sheeran during one of his shows. The Thor actor, 41, learned how to play the drums as part of the National Geographic series, Limitless: Live Better Now, and joined the Shape Of You singer on stage to play at a concert filled with 70,000 people in Bucharest, Romania. Speaking at a Q&A, he said: "(It was) very much a kind of out of body experience and and there's something about being in unison and in time with, not just a band, but a mass group of people. "And I imagine it was sort of like a universal prayer or whatever, where people got together, and this sort of intention to point towards something positive in the same direction that there would be some interconnected experience. "And that's what it felt like. I felt like it was kind of beyond me at that point. I was just floating along for the ride." Hemsworth also reflected on the first series of the show and said: "The first season almost killed me, emotionally and physically. That was by design." He continued: "We discussed, what, if we're going to do a second season, what would we tackle? What new science is there? What we could expand upon." The first episode of the series, titled Brain Power, follows Hemsworth as he takes on the challenge of learning to play the drums, which culminates in the surprise live performance with Sheeran. Hemsworth also climbs a frozen 600-foot wall to see if there is a benefit to breaking out of his comfort zone and and embraces special forces pain training in South Korea. The movie star and his family attended the series London premiere on 17 July. The National Geographic show will be coming to Disney+ on Friday 15 August.

‘King of the Hill' 2025 review: New season proves this animated gem is one 90s TV show actually worth reviving
Ideally, this and the axing in January of Paramount's mediocre Frasier should be the final nails in the coffin of the 90s TV revival craze. All that being said, welcome back King of the Hill (Disney+, streaming now). It's great to see you again after all this time, and looking great too. The animated sitcom created by Mike Judge (Beavis and Butt-head) and Greg Daniels (The Simpsons, The Office, Parks and Recreation) originally ran from 1997 to 2009 and was a cult favourite. Near the end, despite good ratings, its original broadcaster, Fox, seemed to lose interest and dumped the final four episodes into syndication. Set in the fictional Texas city of Arlen, King of the Hill focused on mild-mannered beer- and football-loving propane salesman Hank Hill (voiced by Judge), his wife Peggy (Kathy Najimy) – a substitute teacher who's bursting with confidence, yet sometimes deficient in the self-awareness department – their 12-year-old son and only child Bobby (Pamela Adlon), who shares none of his father's interests, along with a large cast of friends, neighbours and incidental characters. Even when it started, King of the Hill was a bit of an outlier. It didn't have the glorious puerility of Beavis and Butt-head, the surreal satire of The Simpsons or the politically engaged, boundary-smashing, near-the-knuckle outrageousness of South Park. If you had to sum it up in a few words, they would be warm, big-hearted and gentle – although not in the way 'gentle' is often used as code for 'not very funny'. King of the Hill was always very funny. The humour came from the small things, the mundane details and minor frustrations of everyday life. It also paddled against TV comedy's political tide. Hank was – and still is in the new episodes – a Republican, but he's also a member of a vanishing species: the moderate conservative who prefers to consider other viewpoints rather than condemn them. The current fractious political climate is the ideal time to bring King of the Hill back to television, and Judge, Daniels and new showrunner Saladin Patterson (The Wonder Years) handle the return seamlessly. ADVERTISEMENT The new season starts with Hank and Peggy returning to Arlen after several years in Saudi Arabia – or 'Saw-die Arabia', as Peggy says it. As their plane descends, Hank is in the toilet, struggling to empty his bladder, while a disgruntled queue forms at the door. Peggy loudly announces to the other passengers that her husband has a narrow urethra. 'Doctors say he now has the urethra of a seven-year-old,' she booms. 'Every year, that skinny little tube just shrinks and shrinks.' 'Don't share that, Peggy!' wails Hank from the other side of the door. He's flummoxed by taxi apps, all-gender toilets, hybrid cars, bicycle lanes Hank is bewildered at how things have changed while they've been away. 'Are we still in Amsterdam?' he wonders, marvelling at all the trendy stores and eateries that have popped up all over Arlen. 'What kind of food is poke?' He's flummoxed by taxi apps, all-gender toilets, hybrid cars, bicycle lanes. A different comedy might have gone down the route of having Hank rail angrily against modern life. Instead, he handles everything in his uniquely Hank way: initial puzzlement followed by a kind of 'Oh, well' shrug of acceptance. Unlike other animated sitcoms, King of the Hill marks the passage of time. Twelve-year-old Bobby is now 21-year-old Bobby, the part-owner and chef of a restaurant offering 'a traditional Japanese barbecue with a fusion of flavours and techniques from the German traditions of the Texas Hill Country'. Quite a mouthful. King of the Hill rings the changes in the political climate without making your ears bleed. Trump is never mentioned. Everything is addressed obliquely, using Hank's neighbour Dale Gribble (Toby Huss). Always a right-winger, Dale seems to have gone full wingnut. He was elected mayor, but served for just 36 hours after refusing to accept his own victory: 'I was an election-election denier.' If only the compassion of King of the Hill was to be found on Capitol Hill. Rating: Four stars

Lamine Yamal mural in Barcelona vandalised with the Seven Dwarfs after controversial 18th birthday party
The original public street art was unveiled last month to celebrate the Barcelona and Spain forward as he turned 18. Yamal, however, received criticism over his private party arrangements after images emerged of dwarves and scantily clad women reportedly paid to attend the event. Yamal faced accusations of exploitation, which he has not publicly responded to, and over the weekend vandals stencilled images of the Disney film version of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs on a wall in Barcelona's Plaza Joanic. The dwarfs had been painted around an image of Yamal in his superman outfit. Shortly after the stunt came to light on Monday, footage showed an artist taking immediate action to restore the painting to its original state. Yamal had reportedly hired dwarfs as part of the entertainment in his private birthday party outside of the city, according to Spanish reports. The Association of People with Achondroplasia and Other Skeletal Dysplasias (ADEE) claimed those reportedly hired to attend the party were there 'solely for entertainment and promotional activities'. ADEE said it would take legal action against Yamal, arguing it could violate Spanish law intended to protect the dignity of disabled people. It claimed that his alleged actions violated the 'fundamental ethical values of a society that seeks to be egalitarian and respectful'. The original artwork was created by urban artist TV Boy and was unveiled ahead of the Spain international's 18th birthday on July 13. On the field, Yamal, on tour with Barca in South Korea, has continued to dazzle in pre-season after emerging as world football's hottest teenage property. Barcelona president Joan Laporta talked up Yamal's 'genius' talents in a wide-ranging interview this week, but warned against comparing the teenager to eight-time Ballon d'Or winner Lionel Messi. 'Lamine Yamal is Lamine Yamal, Leo Messi was Leo Messi,' Laporta told CNN. 'Leo Messi has been the best player in the world, and Lamine, I think that in his position nowadays, is the best player in the world.' Laporta added that he was working with Yamal's family and agent to ensure the youngster enjoys the best career possible. Barcelona, meanwhile, were learning from their experience with Messi to provide the best environment possible for the player to flourish.
