Hilary Duff just made every millennial's dream come true!

The former Disney star, 38, took to the stage in London on Monday, January 19, for the first night of her long-awaited tour.

"18 years off, but we back baby!" Duff captioned a TikTok video shared earlier that day, using the viral sound, "Tell a friend to tell a friend, she's back!"

Fans went wild after video of the beloved popstar singing "What Dreams Are Made Of" from her 2003 film, The Lizzie McGuire Movie, began circulating.

"Sing to me Paolo!!! 🤩" one fan commented after Rolling Stone shared the clip.

"THIS is what dreams are made of ✨," another wrote.

"not me just waiting for the 'sing for me Paulo,'" another laughed.

"The world is healing 😭" another fan commented.

One fan noted, "I would’ve been sobbing so hard."

The "A Cinderella Story" actress recently opened up about why she had never performed arguably her biggest hit for a live audience.

"I don’t even remember recording that song," she said during an appearance on the Therapuss with Jake Shane podcast in November. "It was a weird time and it wasn’t technically my song. It was a Lizzie McGuire song."

She continued, "I just think that there was like such a separation back then of like me and my music and Lizzie McGuire."

According to Duff, the reason she never performed it live was that she "didn't own it."

She dropped a major hint at the time, telling Shane, "But if I would ever tour again, I think, maybe, I would be allowed to manage to sing that song somehow, someway. Maybe, you know, just maybe like hypothetically."
