RIP: Hayden Panettiere Has Died At Only 36 Years Old And According To Her Rep “It's An Ongoing Investigation”

“It is with profound sadness that we share the tragic passing of our beloved Hayden. She was an incredible light and a force of nature who brought immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her — and to the millions who watched her onscreen,” her rep told ABC.

Apologies for starting off the week on an extremely sour note. Unfortunately we sadly had some tragic news hit the timeline late Sunday night. 'Remember The Titans' & 'Heroes' star Hayden Panettiere passed away at only 36 years old. No details readily available yet but it certainly sucks no matter how you slice it. Gone WAY too young man. Damn. 

RIP to a true millennial legend.

And especially sad considering she had an 11 year old daughter with Wladimir Klitschko and was also just getting her Hollywood career cooking again too. Back in May I was blogging about her new book coming out with things seeming better than ever for her.

Such a gut punch. Check in on a friend today. Thanks for the memories Hayden. We'll miss you.

--UPDATE: no concrete details yet but looks like foul play could allegedly be involved? Goddamnit.
