Neutrogena faces PR backlash over Hayden Panettiere controversy response

Neutrogena is facing sharp criticism from PR experts and fans for a delayed and vague response to Hayden Panettiere’s claim that she was dropped after speaking about postpartum depression; the company disabled comments on its post, which critics say signaled a lack of openness. Neutrogena pledged a major investment in a community health partner for postpartum support but has yet to share concrete details. Experts urge more transparency and a review of morals clauses in ambassador contracts, drawing comparisons to Nike’s handling of pregnancy-related issues in the past.
