Save the Cheerleader, Save the Whales!
Friday November 16, 2007
Is our favorite cheerleader headed to a Japanese prison? Probably not, but Heroes star Hayden Panettiere is wanted by Japanese authorities, who have issued an arrest warrant for the 18-year-old actress. On October 30, the actress participated with other activists in a protest to save dolphins that were being hunted in southwestern Japan. The group went via surfboards out to a cove where fishermen were actively hunting the mammals. When the fishermen went after the activists with fishing rods and propellers, they headed back to shore. The actress told E! News, "I learned today that I have an arrest warrant out for me in Japan because of what I did for Save the Whales." Will Panettiere go to jail? The actress weighed in on what may happen, "Potentially jail, but I doubt it... I guess they could come here and get us, but probably not." Hayden Panettiere is simply trying to save the world one mammal at a time.
