Her Ice Bucket Challenge Confirms What We All Knew

by Nicole Fabian-Weber

Not sure if you knew, but there's a little thing going around called the "ice bucket challenge." The purpose is to raise money and awareness for ALS, and every day, 9 million celebrities post videos of themselves to the Internet, where they're getting a bucket of ice water dumped on their head. Okay, before I take this mediocre joke any further, I'll cut to the chase here: one of today's ice bucket celebrities was Hayden Panettiere. And her video, much like herself, is pretty dang adorable. Oh, come on, you know you can't get enough of this...

Panettiere is now the second celebrity to confirm her pregnancy via ice bucket challenge. Zoe Saldana confirmed her pregnancy with husband Marco Perego on Tuesday by opting out of the challenge and instead having Perego do it for her. Of course, having a bucket of freezing cold water dumped over your head when you're pregnant is totally up to you, but I could definitely see how it would be something Saldana would want to avoid.

Panettiere, on the other hand, she's a trooper. And the cutest thing about her video is that, in addition to nominating Kacey Musgraves and her fiance, Wladimir Klitschko, Panettiere nominates her unborn child. Awww. Imagine how cute it would be to see a tiny fetus dumping a tiny bucket of water on his or head. Precious!

Hope you dried off quickly afterwards, Hayden! Don't want you catching a cold, dear.
