'Nashville' Preview: Watch Hayden Panettiere Belt Out a Down-and-Dirty Ditty

The show must go on! Not even the Season 1 finale's SUV-flipping crash involving the queen of country music, Rayna Jaymes (Connie Britton), can stop the honky-tonk tunes on ABC's primetime drama. And from the looks of this musical preview, the down-and-dirty rivalry between Rayna and pop-country songstress Juliette Barnes (Hayden Panettiere) is just heating up.

Speaking of hot, the ruthless young star is smoking in a white minidress with floor-length train. Bad never looked so good, as she belts out a new song to what appears to be an arena-size crowd.

Sure, Rayna might start off Season 2 in the hospital; but chances are, she'll be up and ready to rock sooner than later, surely to Juliette's chagrin. From the sound of this biting tune, Nashville isn't big enough for both of these clashing crooners — or for Juliette and anyone else.

"Nashville" Season 2 premieres Wednesday, 9/25 at 10 PM on ABC.
