Hayden Panettiere joined the list of new stars presenting at this year’s 60th Primetime Emmys Awards. Hayden’s ensemble show Heroes got three nominations from its season 2 run, but nothing for the major awards. I’m not familiar with how well the competition is for those categories, but I’ll rooting for Heroes.

Other presenters in the roster now include America Ferrera, (Ugly Betty), Laurence Fishburne (new at CSI), Jennifer Love Hewitt, William Petersen (CSI) and Vanessa Williams (Ugly Betty), among others.

The Teen Choice Awards 2008!

In the movies category, “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull“, “Iron Man” and “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian” vie for the top award for action adventure.  Unfortunately, the other summer flicks and possibly blockbusters “The Incredible Hulk” and “The Dark Knight” didn’t get included since the movies are too late for the list.

The event is hosted by teen sensation Miley Cyrus at the Gibson Amphitheater in Universal City , CA and will air on Monday, Aug. 4 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. Starting today, fans ages 13-19 can vote once each day for their favorite TEEN CHOICE 2008 nominees at www.TeenChoiceAwards.com. “Gossip Girl” leads the pack with 14 nominations. Host Miley Cyrus scored 4 nominations, Chris Brown has 9, and Justin Timberlake, the reigning TEEN CHOICE champ, has 3 nominations.
