Hayden Panettiere
Before we get our pom-poms ready to cheer Hayden Panettiere on at the football game, can we just take a second to appreciate everything that she has to offer before we do so? This blonde, blue-eyed, little girl-next-door type is the epitome of the American dream girl. Hayden, who is 11 months old, debunked the notion that all infants are cute, which is a widespread fallacy. When we spotted her in Remember the Titans, we couldn’t help but let out a delighted squeal. Denzel Washington, then one of the biggest stars in Hollywood, gave me the role of the lead character when I was just eleven years old. In addition to her work as a cheerleader, you may recognize her from the television show Heroes, in which she portrayed the superheroine Claire Bennett, who has the power of “rapid cellular regeneration.”
Despite the fact that she participated in such a large number of episodes, she was nominated for many Golden Globes for her role as Juliette Barnes in the television series Nashville, which she played in all 72 of the show’s episodes. Our admiration for Hayden Panettiere extends much beyond the fact that she is a gifted actor; in addition, we admire her for being a mother and an activist. One of the most essential things she did was speak out about postpartum depression, a taboo subject that is rarely given the attention it deserves and is frequently referred to as a “shameful” subject.
