WHAT? Thank goodness the warrant is based out of Japan!! Who knew saving whales would get Hayden Panettiere in so much trouble? A warrant has been issued because Hayden took part in a recent protest and actively "campaigned against the Japanese fishing and dolphin-hunting industry with the animal rights group Sea Shepherd by paddling and crying in the waters two weeks ago, even engaging in a shoving match with fishermen." She knows all about it and doubts she will face jail time.

"I learned today that I have an arrest warrant out for me in Japan because of what I did for Save the Whales," Hayden says. Hayden is unsure regarding the consequences of the arrest warrant, surmising a potential jail sentence may be in the cards, "but I doubt it... I guess they could come here and get us, but probably not," she says.
"I was very excited that people were interested in what we did," she says. "In this town, you tend to only get publicity for not wearing underwear or going to rehab."
