Hayden Panettiere to star as Foxy Knoxy (Amanda Knox) on Lifetime channel?

[Feb. 21]

Hayden Panettiere, best known for her role as Claire Bennet, the cheerleader who has miracle healing powers in the NBC hit series Heroes, is slated to star as Amanda Knox (a.k.a. Foxy Knoxy), the now 22-year-old American student accused of murdering her British roommate, Meredith Kercher, while the two resided in Italy. The film will premiere on the Lifetime channel later this month, and the Hollywood gossip surrounding the latest news updates on the tragic story have kept the topic on Google trending.

Why? Because it seems Knox’ parents are protesting the film, saying it could hurt Amanda Knox’ chances on appeal. Knox, and her co-defendants, boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito and a third killer, Rudy Guede, are all currently awaiting an appeal trial regarding the murder. Furthermore, Panettiere is of Italian descent, which may lend itself to the controversy.

Meredith Kercher’s family doesn’t seem to like it any more. “A gruesome murder sequence in Lifetime’s “The Amanda Knox Story” has reportedly been cut after Amanda Knox’s and Meredith Kercher’s family complained about the scene,” reports The New York Daily News.

Grammy Performers: Justin Bieber Hair Mojo stolen by Esperanza Spalding?

Grammy Performers!

Esperanza Spalding stole Justin Bieber’s Crazy Hair Mojo?

[Feb. 14]

Hair today, gone tomorrow. Humanitarian and singer Justin Bieber, nominated for an award at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards is winning fans worldwide for his most recent endeavor, a 3D movie called Never Say Never that tells of his rise to fame. As a child star and associate of pop star Usher, he has quickly gained a fan following through social media utilities such as Facebook and Twitter. So say his super power is his musical talent, while most think his Justin Bieber hair cut was what gave the teen idol his magic mojo.

A quick search of YouTube will show you several videos of his many talents. He graced the Grammy Music Awards with his elegant white tuxedo and with a new hair cut! With a stellar performance with Willow Smith, we really thought he was going to get the Grammy, but minus those horrible magic Beatles bangs, Justin Bieber was lacking the mojo that would have netted him the 2011 Grammy Awards win for Best New Celebrity.

Justin Bieber got beat by a girl named Esperanza Spalding — who did not look surprised at all to steal the award from him. Which, of course, is making people wonder not only who she is but who she knew behind the scenes to help her win enough votes to oust the Biebs and help her heads home with the highest honor for a newcomer from the Grammys.

Come to think of it, she had some pretty wild hair herself. Did Esperanza Spalding steal Justin Bieber’s mojo?
