HEROES actress HAYDEN PANETTIERE has criticised the U.S. for imposing strict age limits on teenagers - branding the legal drinking age of 21 as "ridiculous".
The 18-year-old star insists she is much happier in Britain where the legal age limit on buying alcohol is 18 and she is able to get served in bars.
Panettiere insists America's age restrictions are old-fashioned and in desperate need of reform.
She says, "I can buy porn or kill someone in war but I can't have a glass of wine. If I could change one thing about America, it would be its ridiculous age limits on things.
"That's why I love visiting Britain. I can walk into a bar and order a drink without having to show my passport. That's so cool."
