Hayden Panettiere - “Teen Vogue” July 2008

Heroes hottie Hayden Panettiere is the cover girl for the June/July 2008 issue of Teen Vogue, on stands May 20. Here’s what she had to say:

On the entertainment industry only having bad girls: “In Hollywood, there is no such thing as being a nice girl. Or being, you know, not messed up. If you’re not, [the tabloids will] make you that way. Nothing is private and when they write about you, it’s almost always completely false.”

On raising the awareness of animal rights, especially whales and dolphins: “[Heroes] put me in a place to speak for things that I’m passionate about. When I was younger, I’d always donate to the humane society.”

On her fashion sense: “I have the same sense of style that I did when I was growing up, but now I wear things that I might not have when I was younger, because I’m much more comfortable with my body. I’m definitely a jeans and tee shirt girl. I dress down and comfy whenever I can, which makes dressing up more exciting. I really like to look polished. I love pencil skirts and flirty dresses – but I’m not picky when it comes to designers; I could find something great to wear from French Connection or Gucci. I have a lot of fun dressing up and deciding what kind of look I want to go for depending on the event.”

Hayden, 18, is currently Vancouver, Canada shooting new scenes for Chris Columbus’s I Love You, Beth Cooper.
