Katharine McPhee Really Likes Text Messages

American Idol loser, Katherine McPhee is gorgeous, talented, and all that other good stuff. I always heard that her boyfriend was older, but I would have never guessed that he's old enough to be her father?

On bulimia recovery:
“Everyone on tour has been very supportive of me. I didn’t put [the story] out there for sympathy. If it helps anyone, then great. Also, I remember when Kelly Clarkson spoke up and said, ‘I’m not gonna bend to the pressures.’ She lets her body do what it wants and she looks fabulous. It’s so important to have positive, beautiful women as influences.”

On rumors that she’s a diva:
“I am a strong woman. But on Idol, people were saying things like, ‘Oh, she’s stuck-up’…It’s hard because no matter what I do, there will always be people who don’t like me…I would love to sit down with Julia Roberts or Oprah [Winfrey] to hear about how they deal with [the pressures of fame].”

On her 41-year-old boyfriend, Nick Cokas:
“We have a great time. We love to text-message when I’m on the road. And at home, we like to get dinner and see a movie. We’re like old people!”

Katherine didn't ever stop to think that her boyfriend IS old. That's why they're "like old people." DUH!

Here's McPhee's man. Isn't he so hot?...I hope they don't do any appearances together. She could lose her entire fanbase.

I guess she really likes text messages?
