Heroes star Hayden Panettiere has some pretty lofty goals when it comes to flirting with men - she was spotted exchanging telephone numbers with Los Angeles Lakers basketball star Lamar Odom on Wednesday night.

The vertically challenged actress was leaving rapper Jay-Z's concert in Hollywood when the 6' 10" sports star met up with her outside the Palladium.

One bystander says, "She seemed thrilled to see Lamar and flirted up a storm with him. He spent much of their chat almost bent double, so he could hear what she was saying. I thought she was dating Milo Ventimiglia, but that didn't seem to stop her exchanging numbers with Lamar. He seemed very fond of her."
