Hayden Panettiere recently chopped off most of her long blonde hair. Does she look better or worse?

Milo Ventimiglia and Hayden Panettiere were spotted shopping for a Cartier diamond engagement ring. The ring the couple were looking at costs $200,000. It’s going to suck for Milo when Hayden dumps him. She’s too young to know what she wants. Milo needs to find a girl closer to his own age to play house with.

In October of 2007 another engagement rumor surfaced saying Milo bought a ring at Tiffany & Co. worth only $1,950. Looks like the price goes up everytime the rumor resurfaces.

Hayden Panettiere told the new issue of Glamour U.K.:

“It’s great to be single. It’s great to have boyfriends. Or girlfriends. There are occasions when you kiss your best friend growing up, having fun and goofing about. Like perfecting your technique.”

She’ll say and do anything to get headlines. Save the dolphins, save the whales.

Hayden Panettiere was out trying to drum up support for the whales off the coast of Japan again. She already has a warrant out for her arrest in Japan for failing to show up in court to take responsibility for her actions. Once Hayden proves she really cares by spending some time in a Japanese jail, then we’ll talk about saving the whales.

Just a few days ago we reported that Milo Ventimiglia admitted he was dating Hayden Panettiere, and now there is more to fuel the speculation. People reports:

Having previously denied a relationship, the two Heroes stars are now considered an item.

"Hayden’s mom adores Milo. She thinks he’s so cute," a family friend tells PEOPLE. "She tells her friends that he’s her boyfriend. She’s very proud."

On a December trip to New York City, Ventimiglia hung out with the entire Panettiere family. "He’s even met her grandparents. He fits in perfectly with the family. Milo jokes around with her little brother," says the source. "They’re buddies."

When the couple are together, "they’re very affectionate and very comfortable around each other. He really takes care of her, even down to the little things like giving her a back massage and going with her to work."

A rep for the actress said: "We do not respond to inquiries from the media regarding Ms. Panettiere’s personal life."

Since cozying up at an Emmys party in September, the two had dodged rumors that they were dating – even though, by mid-November, they already were clearly close, being together publicly at benefits and other events.

When asked shortly before Thanksgiving about the reports of his possible romance with Panettiere, Ventimiglia chuckled then paused before saying, "She and I are close friends. It’s only natural that people are going to couple us together."

"They’re not afraid to show their affection around her family and their friends," says the friend.

As for the existence of a mini generation gap – Ventimiglia’s 30, while Panettiere’s 18 – the friend adds, "At first it doesn’t seem like there’s a big age difference, but then you do see it. … He’s more proper and reserved, and she’s still playful and very girly."

People is a very reliable source. Milo and Hayden just need to say they are dating publicly, and it’ll be official.
