Hayden Panettiere’s father, Alan “Skip” Panettiere, has been released from jail on $50,000 bail following an arrest for felony domestic violence — and he claims the whole thing is “a misunderstanding.”
“Nothing actually happened. In fact, Lesley wasn’t even aware that I had been arrested. Hayden found out about the arrest when I called her from jail. We love each other very much and want everyone to know that the matter was completely blown out of proportion.”
Alan was busted at their home for allegedly hitting Lesley on the cheek and leaving a visible mark. It’s been reported that they had quarreled earlier in the evening at an event at Eva Longoria’s restaurant, Beso.
“Nothing actually happened.” Famous last words from an abuser. How could Lesley not know he was arrested, she was there wasn’t she?
What others said:
Dlisted says, “First of all, AC Slater needs to put on a unitard and go prance around in the corner. Second of all, a misunderstanding? I can picture Lesley telling the cops in the morning, “He didn’t actually hit me. I ran into his hand several times.”
Pink is the New Blog says, “I suppose we are to assume that things got out of hand and all is forgiven, altho I would have a bit of a hard time sweeping a matter like this under the rug if I were somehow involved.”
Evil Beet Gossip says, “Oh, man, my hopes and dreams are coming true: it’s looking like this whole good girl act Hayden’s got going on is just because she’s too damn young to have developed a drinking or drug problem. I mean, now we know that she’s got some genetic tendency to get completely wasted and do really dumb shit, so, at this point, we sit patiently and wait for her life to spin wildly out of control. Then we blog about it. Hooray!”
Law enforcement sources state that Hayden Panettiere’s father, Alan, has been arrested for allegedly battering his wife — Hayden’s mom.
Sgt. Wolf of the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department said Alan Panettiere was arrested this morning on a felony count of domestic violence. He was popped after allegedly striking Lesley Panettiere in the face at around 3:00 AM today.
He is currently being held on $50,000 bail.
Alan and Lesley Panettiere were at a party earlier in the evening. We’re told Alan was upset because Lesley was “hanging” with someone at the shindig and he felt she was “disrespecting” him.
Sources say, according to Lesley’s statement to Sheriffs, the couple went home, began arguing and he struck her in the cheek. We’re told cops took pictures and there are visible marks.
Paramedics advised her she should go to the hospital but she refused. Alan did not give a statement to the police. It’s unclear if any of their kids were at the house at the time of the incident.
Little Hayden Panettiere is unhappy that she can’t get her drink on legally, but excited that she can now buy porn.
“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.”
She is dating Milo Ventimiglia, which I thought at one time was a name for a lady parts disease by the way, who is 30. It must be a wee bit embarrassing that your boyfriend qualifies for discounted car insurance and you can’t even buy him a beer in celebration.
I don’t see why she is so upset. He can buy his own damn beer and probably prefers that she buy him porn instead.

God, who hasn’t? Hayden Panettiere is currently bedding her “Heroes” costar Milo Venti-whatever. However, she wouldn’t mind riding the love roller coaster of Angelina Jolie. Hayden doesn’t limit the boundaries of her lesbian fantasies either.
“That’s fine with me. If I’m going to be linked with someone, I could do an affair with Angelina Jolie, Jessica Alba, or Charlize Theron. Oh and Kate Beckinsale is gorgeous. There are so many beautiful girls.”
She joins a list of female celebs willing to go gay for her. Eve, Lindsay Lohan, Natasha Bedingfield, Kelly Rowland and Janice Dickinson are all known fans of the puffy lipped baby machine.
I must be living under a rock with an impenetrable force field. First I was unaware that Panettiere has been fighting off gay rumors. Second, I can’t seem to find the attractive quality in any of her female counterparts. Then again, I am a big fan of penis. I know…I need to step out of the box. (No pun intended.)
Hayden Panettiere would rather stay home than get mobbed by fans.
Heroes actress Hayden Panettiere has confessed becoming a mega-star has turned her into a virtual recluse.
‘I don’t ever go out,’ she says, of her life in Hollywood, where she drives everywhere to avoid being recognised on the street. ‘I stay at home. I go from garage to garage, and keep myself out of sight.’ The 18-year-old, who has been catapulted into the A-list since taking on the role of cheerleader Claire Bennet in the top-rated US drama, admits she finds being famous ‘a pain in the ass’.
‘I love where I live and that I have wonderful friends there and I love what I do, but it really has a major impact on your life. This business is very intrusive. People want to know what you’re doing every day, and it becomes less about your craft and your art, and your love for acting, than it is about when you put food in your mouth, or when you’re walking your dog.’
Hayden has been in the industry since she was a mere 11 months old, when her mother Lesley – a former soap actress – got her cast in the first of more than 50 adverts. Hayden herself starred in the US daytime soap One Life To Live from ages four to eight, and, now that Heroes has made her a Hollywood A-lister, her next move is to set the big screen alight, having just filmed Fireflies In The Garden with Julia Roberts.
And it seems the teenage star is in no danger of following the likes of Lindsay Lohan into being more famous for misdemeanours than movies – in fact, she is scathing of Hollywood stars who are more concerned with being celebrities than they are with being actors. ‘The interesting thing to me is, if you think about it, the glamour of Hollywood has been dimmed down by people that don’t necessarily love what they do or their craft,’ she says. ‘I think people who are mainly in the public eye and deal with this [attention], a lot of them like it and enjoy it. I don’t really enjoy going out, it’s a nightmare in my opinion.’
On That cheerleader’s body…
‘I don’t have a model’s body. I’m not obsessed like some girls who go crazy. I’m happy with what I’ve got, it suits me fine. I have a personal trainer or I’d never get my ass into the gym, I’d probably be asleep instead. I have to pass as a superhero and you have to be careful of those widescreen TVs, too.’
What she wants in a man
‘I like somebody who is confident and independent, and obviously it helps if they’re secure in themselves. Because sometimes in my job, I obviously have to make out with hot men, so a good sense of humour helps to deal with this!’
I’d dog her for whining about the down side of celebrity, or going on and on about her “craft,” because that kind of thing generally annoys the crap out of me. But she seems like a sweet girl, so I’ll let her off with a warning this time.
And, no, that photo of Hayden in a bikini really doesn’t have anything to do with the story. What’s your point?

Hayden Panettiere replaces Fergie as the new rep for Candies. The spring 2008 campaign is cashing in on the barely legal Heroes vixen. She told everyone how grateful she is to be working with the company pimped by Kohls.
“I am excited to be working with Candie’s. Their campaigns are fun and playful and always feature the hottest stars. I am honored to be the new Candie’s ‘girl’ and I look forward to working with them on lots of exciting projects.”
What a well trained puppet she is. I can barely see the PR rep pulling her strings.
