Katharine McPhee, 23, is gearing up for her February wedding to Nick Cokas, 42.
How is the American Idol runner-up getting into bride mode?
“Well, my fiance’s more of the gym expert than I am,” she tells me. “I’m more into the dance class thing but because of the schedule, I can’t always make it. I do 20-30 minutes of cardio three times a week if I’m lucky, four times if I’m really lucky. I just started doing lunges with dumbbells, and I just started doing shoulder stuff, arm stuff, back stuff.”
