Hayden Panettiere, known for her role in the hit TV series 'Nashville,' recently opened up about her experience on the show, describing it as a deeply distressing and traumatic experience during filming. Despite achieving significant success in her professional life through the show, Panettiere admits that it took a toll on her emotionally.
Panettiere played the role of Juliette Barnes, a country star, on the TV show Nashville, which aired from 2012 to 2018. She has been transparent about her battles with alcohol, opioids, and post-partum depression. In a recent interview, Panettiere reveals that the show's writers heavily drew from her real-life experiences to create her character's storylines, making the filming process particularly challenging for her.
Right from the start, it felt like I was dating a football player, and then Juliette started dating one too," Panettiere reveals. "But then they portrayed her as an alcoholic. They also had her abandon her daughter and go to a crazy place in Europe, and it was clear that they weren't being original with their storylines. Instead, they were just taking inspiration from my own life and adding their own twist to it. And voila, it's done."
According to Panettiere, her time on Nashville was highly fulfilling for her career. However, she found the experience to be quite distressing as it felt like she was reliving her own personal life through her acting.
Panettiere has planned a tour called "A Conversation With Hayden Panettiere" that will take place in three cities. Through this tour, she aims to provide support and inspiration to individuals who are facing similar challenges as she has in her own life.
