Hollywood actress Hayden Panettiere and her boyfriend were caught on video Thursday night getting into a wild bar fight with a group of strangers at the popular Sunset Marquis location in Los Angeles.
The 32-year-old actress, who is only five feet tall, is heard screaming “Brian” as she tried to drag her convicted felon boyfriend Brian Hickerson away from the group outside the hotel’s posh bar when one of the other girls yelled, “Back the hell out.”
You can hear security at the restaurant asking other patrons who weren’t involved in the fight to come back inside. “I need everyone back to the bar, please,” the employee said as Brian, dressed in a white T-shirt and shorts, ran towards the group on the ramp.
Security grabbed Hickerson – a convicted felony who is on probation until 2025 for domestic abuse of an actress in 2018 – and dragged him away from the group as Panettiere slung an employee over her shoulder as someone in the group yelled, “It’s over , its end”. ‘ at the stars.

She fell to the ground along with two or three other people, and the guy Panettiere grabbed was seen by Hickerson locked in his head. From the corner of the frame, you can see how the actress is lifted to her feet, but she did not stay aside for long, trying to distract her boyfriend from the fight.
The girl in the black jacket started hitting Hickerson on the back, screaming hysterically, “Get off! Get off him, you fucking ass.”
Panettiere was seen trying to push people away from her boyfriend on the ground, but only ended up back on the ground protecting the two men. She held one hand to scare off the attackers and calmly said, “Back, back, everyone.”
The hysterical girl, who was kneeling next to the star, began to scream at the top of her lungs: “Get off.”
Panettiere seems to be getting more and more desperate to get her boyfriend out of the fight as she begs the bad man, “No, let me have him. Let me get it.
