The Tawnee.com name might invoke a reference to Tawnee Stone, but it could also mean a million other girls named Tawnee. Just because she is popular on the net, doesn't mean that you have the right to that name over someone else. If the trademark was on the name Tawnee alone, then you have a case. Otherwise, it is not squatting at all.
The guy who owns it may very well be an idiot for not responding to you.
As for the Tawnee-Stone domain, that is something I'd go after. If they are using your trademark to bring in traffic for another site, that is something you'd fight. I've had a few cases like this. The best approach is a nice letter from the attorney. I'd make it cordial though and let him know that if he is going to use your trademark in a domain, he must promote your site. If he chooses not to, you can go after him. The problem is that it can cost a few grand minimum to get the domain back and it just may not be worth it.
