No bra, no problem: photos of Hayden Panettiere's sexiest outfits

A large army of fans, gradually increasing in number month after month, watched with interest as Hayden Panettiere transformed from a child star into a stunning adult beauty thanks to her role in the series Nashville. As she got older, her clothing choices became more daring, and Hayden had some daring braless moments both on the red carpet and while out and about.

Back in a 2017 interview on The Late Show, Hayden told host Stephen Colbert that acting on soap operas from the age of 5 gave her the ability to “do miracles.” Simply put, she became ready for any job. She remembered that when she was filming Guiding Light, she was thrown into a well, she "got sick" with leukemia, and not once, but twice, she was kidnapped and shot her mom's boyfriend...

The young girl's big break in prime-time television came at the age of 16, when she was cast as a cheerleader with the power of rapid cellular regeneration, Claire Bennett, on NBC's Heroes. The series ran from 2006 to 2010, and Hayden made her way down numerous red carpets, attracting attention as a budding Komsomol member and simply a beauty.

The blonde babe landed her first leading adult role on television, playing country singer Juliette Barnes on the ABC series Nashville, which ran from 2012 to 2018. Her character, singer Juliet Barnes, went through almost as many heartbreaking storylines as Hayden did as a children's soap opera star. While filming the series, she became pregnant and in December 2014 gave birth to a daughter, Kaya, with her then-fiancé, Ukrainian Vladimir Klitschko.

Unfortunately, the actress struggled with postpartum depression. She sought professional treatment for her condition in October 2015 and May 2016. In a December 19, 2016 interview with Access Hollywood, she mentioned how her personal battles came to fruition with her role on Nashville.

Along the way, Hayden continued to appear on numerous red carpets and always showed off her amazing sense of style. She loves feminine looks and deep necklines and always looks confident and radiant.

Take a look below to see Hayden's best braless looks.

2. Tattoo “Live without regrets”

At the 46th Annual Country Music Awards, Hayden showed off her large back tattoo in a green, braless dress. The picture depicts the Italian proverb “Vivere senza rimipianti”, which translated means “live without regrets”.

3. Burgundy dress with a cutout

The actress donned a burgundy minidress with a large cut-out bust for the ABC Upfronts.

8. A little curiosity in a blue dress

At the 2011 Golden Globes party, Hayden Panettiere had a minor "glitch" with her outfit. The fact is that the camera flashes, when she posed on the red carpet, revealed her white breast pads through a sheer dark blue dress. But it must be said that this fact didn’t make Hayden look any worse...

Hayden Panettiere in 2022

In a 2022 interview with People magazine, Hayden Panettiere revealed that she previously had alcohol and opioid addictions that were so "out of control" that she "couldn't live without them."

Panettiere, who came into the limelight at age 11, said she was first offered “happy pills” before a red carpet appearance when she was just 15 years old. The "Heroes" actress explained that during the height of her career, she continued to drink alcohol and occasionally use opioids. And as she got older, drugs and alcohol became something she simply couldn't live without.

Over the past year, the actress has been undergoing specialized treatment. Now she's back on set to reprise her role as a fan-favorite character, Kirby Reed, in the upcoming film Scream. In March 2022, she founded Hoplon International, a charitable organization. So most likely she will be fine...
