Hayden Panettiere – who is a budding singer – will make a guest appearance with fellow cast member Greg Grunberg’s all-star Band From TV this weekend, she confirms to People magazine.
“I sang with them at the wrap party for our show,” Panettiere, 17, told PEOPLE Tuesday at a party in L.A. celebrating NBC’s fall season. “I saw them and said, ‘Anytime you guys want me to perform with you I’m totally up for it.’ ”
Panettiere says she’ll jump at any chance to practice singing onstage. “I have terrible stage fright and [with an album coming out] I’ll need to go on tour at some point – so I need to practice.”
How serious is Panettiere’s stage fright? “The Fourth of July performance in Washington, D.C., was so nerve-wracking that I’m surprised I even made it on stage,” she tells PEOPLE.
But Grunberg later laughed off Panettiere’s claims. “Give me a break,” he said. “She just played in front of like 500,000 people!”
This weekend’s audience is expected to be closer to 5,000, according to Grunberg.
“That’s like the biggest audience we’ve played. It’s really exciting,” he says. “We’re going to do a whole set, and then [Hayden] is going to do two amazing songs.”
So what exactly will Panettiere sing? “I’m singing Meredith Brooks’s ‘Bitch,’ and then I’m singing Alanis Morissette’s ‘Ironic,’” she says. “It’ll be fun!”
