I fricken’ HATE Katharine Mcphee!! She wasn’t even pretty when she was younger, just a spoiled fat, lazy brat with a rich daddy! If it wasn’t for American Idol, she would have gotten nowhere!!!! Her whole "relationship" with Nick Cokas is just a big, fat publicity stunt to draw some attention to herself, just like that whole Bulimia story.
At 26 I thing a 50 year old would be the best if only love prevails….age is nothing but the heart counts!!!
Go cathy go!! dont let anyone critisize you on whom you gonna date, you know from where he has brought you and you have your own reasons why you are together. am sure he is understanding, myself I have a 23yr older man than me and am so proud of it. If he has the brain, why should you stress yourself with these nasty young ones?? All the best for you!!!!!!
All you people whining about the age gap are idiots. A. When she’s 41 she won’t look any better then him at 60. And after she hits 50 who cares. She won’t be a M. Pfeifer I assure you. B. What? Do you all think you have a shot at her if they were’nt dating. C. Have you scene the “age appropriate” guys all the other pop singers are dating lately. D. She’s into him. E. I didn’t hear everyone claim Aston Kutcher has “issues”. F. Aparrently those who no him say he’s a charming, sensitive, caring individual. What more do you need? G. If you idiots prefer, K-Fed is always available.
To “46 ncdude”: Let’s see, you CLAIM to be a 23 year old who makes a 100 grand a year, and then go on to say that a 23 year old woman who sleeps with a 42 year old man amounts to statutoary rape???? Holy $h!t dude! Where do I apply for that job of yours?! The intellectual requirements must be looser than Paris Hilton’s *BLEEP!*! (BLEEP = “morals” ;) )
-”54 Jake : All you people whining about the age gap are idiots.”
Hell Jake, 95% of people online are idiots :) . (All your points make perfect sense, BTW.)
That guy Katharine is with looks like a sicko! OMG he is old enough to be her father. I think she should dump him on his ass! She is too pretty to be with an ugly **** like him.
Physical age does not necessarily equal to mental age. There will be some that are old but immature and young but mature beyond their years. Age is only a number (with exceptions) and in this case, if they love each other and he knows how to treat her right, what’s wrong with that? She could be dating another gorgeous actor her age…even get lucky to get married, have a kid or two then divorce her for another girl. Having someone pretty doesn’t mean they are good. Her marrying someone her age and attractive doesn’t mean she’ll be happy. If she’s happy with him, let her be happy.
one more thing, McPhee fans should be happy that their idol is not the kind of person that ditches a devoted man for another pretty young face. She stayed with him. That says a lot about her character.
HELOOOOO?! Obviously, she’s looking for a father figure….wonder where daddy was in her life?
Jesus! He’s RAT ASS UGLY! And balding, too!!! That picture of him at the top makes him look like SATAN! Jesus! Women rip on me for not being Brad Pitt and having millions of $$$$ and then they run off and hook up with THIS???????? HE’S NOT EVEN FAMOUS! IMDB has him credited for only one film. WTF!!! Have ALL women lost their minds???
Damn, some woman are judgmental…Emphasis on the mental. “He needs a nose job…” “He looks as if he has an eating disorder…” What is funny is 100 years ago, he would have been the same age and she would have been 8 years younger. The slant is “He is too old for him” but in reality, wtf can a 22-23 y.o. bring to the table except energy? When I was 19 and in the military, I dated a 41 y.o. nurse, and I learned that there is nothing that can make up for 22 years of life. Yes I could go 24/7, but it was I that was lucky to have HER, not the other way around. I had been all over the world, met 2 future presidents (Gov. Clinton and VP Bush) and it was her that was CONSTANTLY teaching me.
From all of her (Katharine McPhee) interviews, she seems intelligent and sweet…BUT lacks the sophistication that only AGE can bring. Maybe he likes construction projects…Maybe she needs a father figure…regardless, stop blaming HIM, or her for that matter.
Nick is a great guy…I was his roommate for a short while in Manhattan.
He is a talented, sweet, and funny man, and I’m happy for his romantic success.
Cheers,
Kairos
This relationship will never last….what were you thinking Katherine? You married way too young!!!
My father was almost 25 years older than his wife. They were very very much in love for almost 20 years. The only thing that separated them was when my dad died of cancer a year and a half ago. Please don’t judge age differences because there is so much more to true love than age and looks. It’s buried so deep in the heart that you’ll never be able to put words around the love. Leave them Kat and her man be.
All of you are jealous haters. They are both great-looking people and great-looking together. It’s a beautiful thing. I pity her because she must go through idiotic criticism like this all the time.
You must have been really immature and idiotic at 22, because you see yourself at 22 when making criticism.
And by the way, he looks nothing like her father. He looks pretty young, and very handsome.
Get a life, losers!
