It's Hard To Believe Hayden Panettiere Used To Look Like This

Hayden Panettiere had one plan for herself, and that included rising in the Hollywood ranks. She continued to do just that in the late 2000s, appearing in countless films, such as The Good Student, The Architect, Bring It On: All or Nothing, Shanghai Kiss, and Fireflies in the Garden.

Panettiere also turned heads with her portrayal in the acclaimed TV program Heroes. She starred as Claire Bennet, a cheerleader who discovers she has supernatural powers just in time to prevent a catastrophic event from happening, from 2006 to 2010 (via IMDb).

Panettiere was extremely dedicated to her Hollywood career, but her focus shifted during these years as she became increasingly involved in activism. The actress became a real-life superhero when she traveled to Japan in 2007 and protested against the slaughtering of dolphins. At the time, Panettiere put her life on the line when she courageously tried to save dolphins from being kill by fishermen (via Access Online).

Three years later, in 2010, Panettiere traveled to Japan once again to call for the end of the country's annual dolphin hunt. "We are trying to peacefully come up with better ideas as to how to generate income and utilize the nature here," Panettiere told reporters when she arrived (via CBS News). She has since continued her efforts.
