Hayden Panettiere: ‘Don’t Expect me to be Perfect’
posted by hollygirl on 19 Jun 2009
Hayden Panettiere is quite happy being a role model for teenage girls — as long as they realize she isn’t perfect.

The Heroes star says although she tries to stay well-behaved she can’t guarantee she will stay out of trouble and she wants everyone to remember that.

“I think the only problem with attempting to be a role model is the fact that you just want to go, ‘okay, I’ll be a role model for you. I’d love to, but don’t expect me to be perfect because I’m not and I do screw up and I do make mistakes and I can’t always think of everyone else and what they’re going to say’.

“Because at the end of the day the only person you can make happy is yourself. No matter whether it’s wrong or right or looks good or looks bad, somebody will hate it. Somebody will.”

The 19-year-old recently revealed that she was bullied at school.

“I was never the popular girl. I actually thought the worst was middle school, it was all about where you sat in the lunchroom,” she said. “And it was one of the most traumatizing experiences for me. I was absolutely tortured.

“I remember going to sit with the popular kids for the first time because one girl invited me over and one of the guys pulled the chair out from underneath me before I sat down and everyone started laughing. So, I was never the popular girl. Never, never, never. [SOURCE]
