In June 2006, when asked about her then-boyfriend Good Charlotte frontman Joel Madden, a native of Waldorf, Maryland, in an interview with Elle Magazine, Duff replied, "He's very real, like, he's from a pretty ghetto place in Maryland... I like that". Duff's "ghetto" comments sparked a mixture of mild offense and bemusement from residents of the Waldorf area, as the suburban, mostly middle-class town did not fall into the traditional impoverished inner city concept of a ghetto.<ref> Jay Friess
