Hayden Panettiere, known for her role in the popular TV show 'Nashville', recently revealed in an interview that the experience of filming the show had a deep emotional impact on her, describing it as "very traumatizing". Despite the show's success, Panettiere faced personal challenges during the filming process.
From 2012 to 2018, Panettiere played the role of Juliette Barnes, a country star, on the television show Nashville. Throughout her career, she has been candid about her battles with alcohol, opioids, and post-partum depression. In a recent interview with the Messenger, she revealed that the show's writers drew heavily from her personal experiences to shape 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 starts dating one too," Panettiere explains. "And then they portray her as an alcoholic. After that, they have her abandon her daughter and go to some crazy place in Europe. It was clear that they weren't being creative with the storylines. They were simply taking inspiration from my own life and putting their own twist on it. And just like that, it's finished."
According to Panettiere, her time on Nashville was personally challenging as she felt it mirrored her own life, despite the success she experienced in her career.
Panettiere is planning to go on a tour called "A Conversation With Hayden Panettiere" across three cities. The purpose of this tour is to inspire and support others who may be facing similar challenges as she has in her own life.
