Hayden <\/a><\/strong>Panettiere<\/strong><\/a>\u2018s<\/span> relationship with singer Rihanna<\/a><\/strong> goes way back. In a new interview, the \u201cNashville\u201d alum opened up about working with the mother of three years ago on the direct-to-DVD film \u201cBring It On: All or Nothing.\u201d Elsewhere in the conversation, Panettiere shared her thoughts on what it feels like to have been a mainstay in the entertainment industry for over two decades, saying, \u201cI\u2019m having a moment!\u201d<\/p>\n Speaking with Entertainment Weekly<\/a>, Panettiere, who played Britney Allen in the 2006 third installment of the \u201cBring It On\u201d franchise, reflected on how much being part of the beloved series meant to her at the time.<\/p>\n \u201cI loved the passion that people had for Bring It On. When fans would come up who loved that movie, they would freak out \u2014 have a physical, visceral reaction to me that I had never seen before,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Panettiere also opened up about what it was like working with Rihanna on the film, which also starred Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s younger sister, Solange Knowles.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s so satisfying as a performer, doing anything, anyone giving you that much love, it\u2019s incredible for your soul. And Rihanna! I met Rihanna when she was 17, and I was 16 on that,\u201d Panettiere explained.<\/p>\n For those who may be unfamiliar, Rihanna wasn\u2019t doing roundoff back handsprings in the film \u201cBring It On.\u201d She was, however, judging the cheer teams during the film\u2019s big finale.<\/p>\n According to Panettiere, she formed a great relationship with the \u201cHard\u201d singer on the film\u2019s set; so much so that Rihanna reportedly asks her the same question every time they see each other in public.<\/p>\n \u201cI run to her all the time. And the first thing she asks is, \u2018Oh, how\u2019s your mom?’\u201d Panettiere shared. \u201cI met a lot of very cool people on that project, plus anything having to do with sports or being athletic, I\u2019m in.\u201d<\/p>\n MEGA<\/p>\n \u201cBring It On: All or Nothing\u201d came six years after the original film starring Kirsten Dunst and Gabrielle Union hit theaters. The movie\u2019s 20th anniversary will be in early August 2026, a fact Panettiere didn\u2019t seem ready to acknowledge.<\/p>\n \u201cOh God, [is] it really?\u201d she said on the red carpet. \u201cI was just with one of my dear friends, Evan Ross, and we were talking about how long we\u2019d known each other. Remember the Titans came up, and I thought in my head, I was like, \u2018Oh my God, it\u2019s been 26 years.\u2019 So now you\u2019re telling me Bring It On has been how many years? My head\u2019s in my hands.\u201d<\/p>\n Continuing, Panettiere, who also appeared in famed shows like \u201cHeroes\u201d and \u201cGuiding Light,\u201d joked about how quickly time has flown by since \u201cBring It On.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m having a moment. I cannot believe I\u2019ve been around \u2014 I still don\u2019t feel like a full-grown adult!\u201d she quipped.<\/p>\n While Panettiere\u2019s time as Britney on \u201cBring It On\u201d was nearly 20 years ago, the actress recently told Gayle King on CBS Mornings that the role has bled into her real life in an unexpected way.<\/p>\n While having an emotional conversation about her daughter, Kaya, with the esteemed media personality, Panettiere said that her child actually refers to her as the spunky fictional cheerleader from the affluent Pacific Vista High School.<\/p>\n \u201cShe actually called me and FaceTimed me the other day, and she calls me \u2018Britney.\u2019 She goes, \u2018Hey Britney,’\u201d Panettiere said. \u201cIt took me a second, and I realized she was talking about Bring It On, because her friends are fans of Bring It On.\u201d<\/p>\n MEGA<\/p>\n Panettiere has been sharing more and more over the last few weeks to promote her new memoir, \u201cThis Is Me: A Reckoning.\u201d<\/p>\n Throughout the book, Panettiere is extremely candid about personal challenges, including her relationships with her mother and her daughter.<\/p>\n Also in the book, Panettiere opens up about a frightening experience where an unnamed movie director reportedly exposed his genitals to her, as well as another instance where she was placed in a bed with a famous, naked man.<\/p>\n Panettiere didn\u2019t mention names in her book, and according to a previous report from The Blast<\/a>, that was intentional.<\/p>\n \u201cI wanted to tell my stories without dragging anyone else in the mud, through the mud,\u201d she said. \u201cAs much as I want to call people out, this is still an industry that I have to exist in.\u201d<\/p>\n Steven Bergman\/AFF-USA.COM \/ MEGA<\/p>\n Panettiere expanded on that, stating that the unnamed men she wrote about in her book still have a strong presence in Hollywood and that mentioning them could cause major issues for her.<\/p>\n \u201cThey\u2019re people I could run into again. I didn\u2019t want to put myself in that position,\u201d she said, adding that the stories she wrote about \u201chappened a long time ago.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201c\u2026 it was to protect me and my company from being sued by some very p-ssed-off famous people,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n The The One Thing Rihanna Asks Hayden Panettiere Every Time They Cross Paths<\/a> first appeared on The Blast<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hayden Panettiere\u2018s relationship with singer Rihanna goes way back.
