Heroes star and perennial Hollywood Gossip crush material Hayden Panettiere was been laying low of late, but she’s the cover girl for the June / July 2008 issue of Teen Vogue! Here are some excerpts from her interview …
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 false.”
THG NOTE: We were right about Hayden Panettiere and Milo Ventimiglia … although we reported it months before they went public with their love.
On raising 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.”
“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.”
