Nashville Star Hayden Panettiere Opens Up About the Traumatizing Experience of Filming the Show

  • by

Hayden Panettiere, known for her role in the hit show 'Nashville', recently shared in an interview that her experience working on the show was extremely distressing for her. Despite achieving great professional success through the show, she revealed that it had a significant emotional impact on her.

Panettiere, known for her role as the country singer Juliette Barnes in the TV show Nashville, revealed that she faced numerous challenges in her personal life, including alcohol and opioid addiction as well as post-partum depression. In a recent interview, she disclosed that the show's writers drew inspiration from her own experiences, leading to particularly challenging filming sessions.

Panettiere expresses that from the start, it seemed like she was dating a football player, and then the character Juliette also dates a football player. However, the writers turned Juliette into an alcoholic and later had her abandon her daughter to go to a chaotic place in Europe. It was evident that the writers were not being creative and not doing proper research. They were simply taking aspects of Panettiere's real life and adding their own twist to it. As a result, the storylines became predictable and lacked originality.

Panettiere expresses that her time in Nashville was highly fulfilling in terms of her professional growth. However, she admits that the experience was mentally distressing for her as she felt like she was reliving her own personal life through her character.

Panettiere plans to begin a tour called "A Conversation With Hayden Panettiere" in three different cities. The purpose of this tour is to inspire and support individuals who are facing similar challenges to the ones she has experienced.
