Hayden Panettiere on Nashville’s Fashion: Cowboy Boots > Sparkly Mini-Dresses

Mar 27, 2013 @ 10:15 am

There’s a new Nashville on tonight (at 10/9c on ABC), and that means a new dose of Tennessee style to go with it! And while Hayden Panettiere‘s Juliette Barnes loves a good sparkly stage look (à la fellow country crooner Taylor Swift), the actress admits that those minis aren’t always the easiest looks to wear. “I love them until a half-hour in and you have to start to wire up and you’re, like, ‘Where am I going to put all these packs?’ Those dresses barely cover my goodies!” the 23-year-old actress lamented to InStyle.com at the series’ PaleyFest panel earlier this month. “When you’re trying to go to the bathroom, it’s a no-go situation.” Which is why in her own life, she explained, her style has become increasingly casual. “Cowboy boots go with everything! Especially in Nashville. I can go out, no matter if I’m going to a beautiful restaurant, and look respectable in jeans and a T-shirt.” Sounds like a cozy deal to us!

Nashville’s Hayden Panettiere Is as Obsessed with Connie Britton’s Hair as the Rest of Us

Mar 13, 2013 @ 4:00 pm

Nashville‘s Hayden Panettiere gets to spend a lot of time looking at her co-star Connie Britton’s glorious head of strawberry curls—but that doesn’t mean she’s any less obsessed with it than the rest of us. “Her hair is unreal and real, it’s a thing,” the actress said at a Nashville panel during PaleyFest in Los Angeles. “There’s a picture of her in the makeup trailer with her son, Eyob, over her shoulders. And Eyob’s so beautiful, but I almost didn’t notice him because of her hair! So, yeah, it’s a thing.” And you can see how you’d look blessed with Connie’s lustrous mane, too. Simply upload your picture into our Hollywood Makeover Tool and ta-da—you’ll have Connie’s enviable tresses without ever stepping into a salon. Then tune into Nashville Wednesdays on ABC to see Britton’s Rayna James ‘do in action (and swoon).

After some stunning revelations on the last episode of Nashville (in case you missed it, Rayna and Teddy are divorcing, Juliette is revamping her image, and Scarlett and Gunnar are on the road to super-stardom), tonight promises to be another can’t-miss event. The paparazzi are getting the best of Rayna (Connie Britton) in the wake of her separation from Teddy, and cheating rumors abound in the tabloids. That won’t stop her from performing at Deacon’s star-studded surprise birthday party though (thrown by Juliette, of course!). And by “star-studded” we mean appearanced by real-life country icons Vince Gill, Pam Tillis, Kate York, Kip Moore, and Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys. Tune in tonight at 10 p.m. EST on ABC for the all-new episode. You won’t want to miss Rayna’s performance with Pam Tillis!

Some big changes are in store on tonight’s all-new episode of Nashville. First, Deacon packs up his guitar and joins Juliette (Hayden Panettiere) on tour, stunning Rayna (Connie Britton) and prompting everyone to do some major soul searching. While Deacon may need time to adjust to the “Vegas production” that is the Juliette Barnes show, we can’t get enough of the added dance numbers (think smoke, sequins, fringe, and leather shorts!). Back in Nashville, Scarlett (Claire Bowen) and Gunnar struggle to make rent with tips from low-rate gigs, while Avery walks the line between his past and his present. Plus, Teddy and Peggy (Kimberly Williams-Paisley) reunite and it’s oh-so-good. Tune in tonight at 10 p.m. EST on ABC, and brace yourself for the jaw-dropping ending!

Nashville Tonight: Rayna James and Juliette Barnes’s Big Bash

Now that Teddy’s election campaign is over, he’s diving headfirst into his mayoral duties on Nashville. His first order of business? Toasting wife Rayna’s (Connie Britton) smash hit with Juliette Barnes (Hayden Panettiere), “Wrong Song,” at their record label’s bash. But the glitzy affair can’t hide the troubles facing its guests-of-honor. Juliette brought her mom, which is just always a bad idea (why would she ever think otherwise?) and Rayna is hiding her flirtatious relationship with Liam while being courted by another label. Never a dull moment in Nashville! Tune in tonight at 10 p.m. EST on ABC for the all-new episode and, country fans, be sure to keep you eyes peeled for cameos by Brantley Gilbert and Chris Young.

It was a whirlwind week for the cast of Nashville—stars Hayden Panettiere and Connie Britton both received Golden Globe nominations for their roles on the show and made knock-out appearances on the red carpet for Sunday’s ceremony. “I have to fly back to Nashville tomorrow, and I’m completely not packed or ready to go,” Britton told InStyle at the Awards, opting to toast her costars Sunday night instead of fretting about her flight. “In my brain I was trying to coordinate all the things that I’m going to have to think about in the morning, and then I just said, ‘Forget it. I’m not going to worry about that right now.’” After a long night of celebrating at the Globes, it was back to business on-set in Tennessee. Expect a rocky start on tonight’s all-new episode when the ladies finally kick off their on-screen arena tour, without Deacon in tow. We’re hoping their stage costumes will be just as dazzling as their red carpet looks! Tune in to Nashville tonight at 10 p.m. EST on ABC.

Nashville: Juliette’s 2.68-Carat Diamond Engagement Ring

New year, new Nashville! ABC’s hit musical drama returns tonight with an all-new episode aptly titled, “Be Careful of Stones That You Throw.” The biggest stone being tossed around? Juliette’s (Hayden Panettiere) platinum and diamond engagement ring from her pro-football playing beau, Sean (Tilky Jones). The country star happily shows off her giant sparkler on tonight’s episode and we have all the details:

• Nashville costume designer Susie DeSanto told InStyle.com that the ring is an Art Deco ring, circa 1925.
• The ring is actually on loan from Walton’s Antique Jewelry in Franklin, TN.
• The European cut center stone weighs 2.68 carats and is surrounded by a halo of smaller diamonds.

Who wouldn’t say yes to bling like that? It’s not all bliss though (naturally!) as Rayna (Connie Britton) and Teddy’s marriage continues to falter and few people are happy to celebrate Juliette and Sean’s new union. Tune in to Nashville tonight at 10 p.m. EST on ABC to see what shakes down— there’s a major surprise is in store!
