Hayden Panettiere says she was given “happy pills” by people on her team when she was just 15 to make her more energetic for red carpets and interviews while she was starring in Heroes. She recalled being told, “Here, take one of these, it’s a happy pill, it’ll give you energy,” explaining that she didn’t realize at the time that she was being given a drug. Panettiere said the pills were “something similar to Adderall” and that they made her feel happier and more energetic without realizing the potential consequences. “They were to make me peppy during interviews. I had no idea that this was not an appropriate thing, or what door that would open for me when it came to my addiction.” She also says the adults around her prioritized her career and income over protecting her, explaining, “I had people around me who were making money off of me, and you don’t want to rock the boat when the boat is making you money.” Panettiere revealed, “There were so many people that should have stepped in. There were so many adults in my life who were supposed to protect me, who saw what was going on and looked the other way because as long as I was working, the machine kept running.” She added, “I was the breadwinner from the time I was a little girl. When you are the one funding everyone’s lives, the dynamic completely flips. You don't have parents anymore—you have managers, you have employees, and nobody wants to tell the golden goose to stop.” In the end, her legacy remains a powerful, urgent warning about the critical need to protect young performers from the very industries that make them stars.
