Actress Hayden Panettiere is afraid of the dark.
The Nashville star admits she can't get to sleep if her room is blacked out.
"I'm terrified," she says. "I fall asleep with my TV on. I hate
it."
She faced her fears during a recent appearance on singer Harry
Connick, Jr.'s talk show, when he handed her a flashlight and
dimmed his studio lights.
As it got darker and darker, Hayden began to get a little nervous
and told the host, "I don't want to", when he said, "We have to go
all the way".
She started squealing as the lights went out completely and turned
on her torch.
The two stars ended their interview in the darkness of the studio
and the actress sighed with relief as the lights came back on when
the show went to a commercial break.
