Hayden Panettiere says her debut album is "a little bit eclectic". The 18-year-old beauty - who stars in hit US TV show 'Heroes' - revealed her record features unique songs which reflect the story of her life.

She said: "There are very different, very diverse songs on the album. They're a little bit eclectic. I just wanted to make sure that the music didn't all sound the same. "I have spent four years making this album and the music changed so much over the years, just because my life experiences and who I am as a person is obviously reflected in the music." Hayden also spoke about her role as indestructible cheerleader Claire Bennett in 'Heroes' and says despite a lacklustre second season, the third season of the show is back on track. She added to US radio presenter Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM show: "Everyone is so excited about it. It's the same action, the same high-intensity as the first season."
