I’m not sure quite how this happened, maybe the slavish devotion of fanboys like Kevin Smith had something to do with it, but somehow the cheerleader from Heroes is now a big enough name that studios are putting together star vehicles for her. Isn’t that sort of treatment usually reserved for the likes of Tom Hanks, or at the very least Colin Hanks? Save the cheerleader, doom the world to awful movies starring Hayden Panettiere.
And trust me, this movie will be awful. Variety says Fox has acquired the rights to a novel called “Naomi and Ely’s No Kiss List”. It’s a book about a Manhattan girl and her gay best friend protecting their friendship by making up a list of people they’re not allowed to lock lips with. Predictably, relationship peril and hilarity ensues when gay buddy Ely makes out with Naomi’s (Panettiere) boyfriend.
If Naomi had any sense, she never would have concocted the damn list to begin with. If her gay friend can get anyone she’s dating to kiss him, then she’d be smart to simply let them have at it, and then thank him later for saving her from wasting years on a relationship with a guy who’s clearly not really into chicks.
Hayden Panettiere is kind of cute in a slightly chubby kid-sister sort of way, but I can’t see her carrying a movie. I’m not even sure she can actually act. There’s not a lot of acting on Heroes, mostly it’s a lot of looking intense while absolutely nothing happens. Assuming nothing happens in Naomi and Ely’s No Kiss List, I guess she’ll do fine.

Unless you're psychic (which I seriously doubt) maybe you could wait until the movie's actually been made or even seen the trailer before attacking it? Just a thought.
Not cool to call her chubby, or even slightly chubby. For the bitching we do about how unhealthy Hollywood starlets are becoming, why doom young girls like Hayden to a future if anorexia/bulemia by getting on the name-calling band wagon now? Shes not fat, nor is she chubby, shes very healthy looking young woman.
In 5 years when shes a sickly 100lbs, people on this site and other will be crying, saying "What happened to Hayden? She used to be so pretty"... dont start this pattern now, it can only lead to bad things.
Read again. I never exactly said she was chubby. I said she was cute in a slightly chubby kid-sister way. I wasn't commenting on her weight, I was comparing her look to something specific, to a cute little girl. Something which to me, isn't really a negative.
"I’m not even sure she can actually act. There’s not a lot of acting on Heroes"
Wow. Have you even watched that show just once? If so, did you maybe fast-forward through Panettiere's scenes? Without contest, she is one of the strongest assets in a talent-ridden cast.
Obviously, YMMV. Don't blame me for taking your reviews with a grain of salt, however.
Yes AJ, I have watched the show. I endured pretty much all of season one, and a few espisodes of season 2 actually. Heroes, and everyone on it except perhaps Zachary Quinto is vastly overrated by fanboys.
This is my 1st time stopping by the site, and I must say josh I already love you! You are one on the few (nonexsitant) bloggers who will stand up for what they publish. I love the site............and you are Hero's is overrated its alot of hype built around that show by the media and instead of people actually watching it they get caught up in the hype and fail to realize there isnt that much acting going.......FANBOYS is what keeping the all these mess of a shows on....
OK, Ill give you that Josh, you didnt actually call her chubby, and I do understand what you were saying, but you have to admit that could easily be misinterpreted.
Of course she can act. are you people stupid or just jealous. By the way she is not chubby shes perfect. Shes skinny, maybe not a size 0 like most fake tummy tuck actresses but thats what I like to see normal looking women.
