James Blunt the 'famous man' in Hayden Panettiere's alleged boat assault story? British singer responds

The death of Hayden Panettiere, still under investigation, has renewed attention on an unsettling incident she described in her memoir “This Is Me: A Reckoning.” In the book, Panettiere said that at 18 she was led to a yacht cabin where a “famous thirty-something British singer-songwriter” lay in bed, described as shirtless with her sheets covering his lower body. She wrote that a trusted friend encouraged her to get into bed, allegedly saying, “He has a huge d*ck,” and that her shock prevented her from saying no. Online sleuths quickly speculated the unnamed singer could be James Blunt after photos tied them to the same Cannes trip in 2009, including images on a boat.
