Hayden Panettiere strips off for sex scene in new TV show Nashville

London: Hayden Panettiere shows off her stunning curves in skimpy black underwear as she romps with a tattooed hunk.

It's the latest steamy scene from Hayden's new TV show Nashville.

According to the Sun.co.uk report, the drama - set in country music Mecca Nashville - has been a huge hit since it first appeared on US screens in October.

And Hayden, 23, is doing her bit to make sure viewers stay tuned - by climbing out of her clothes at every opportunity.

In the latest episode, her character - up-and-coming singer Juliette - gets hot and heavy with American footballer boyfriend Sean Butler.

She straddles Sean (played by Tilky Jones) and peels of her clothes, leaving just a lacy bra that shows off her impressive cleavage.

A badly-timed phone call stops the sex scene in its tracks - but not before viewers are treated to a perfect view of Hayden in her undies.

It's not the first time Hayden's undressed on screen - in a previous episode she set temperatures rising by stripping down to a bikini and plunging into a pool.

And there's good news for viewers in the UK - More4 has snapped up the rights to show Nashville.

The first episode will premiere in 2013.
