Getty Images Hayden Panettiere is opening up about her sexuality. The 36-year-old Nashville star sat down for an interview, where she spoke about her upcoming memoir, "This Is Me: A Reckoning." It will be released on May 12. In a new interview to promote the book, it's mentioned that she is attracted to women. Hayden told Us Weekly, "That's something about me I was never able to share with the world, because it was just never the right time. It was either I was too young, and I was being forced to be perfect at all times. I was not encouraged to just be myself.
