The last time anyone paid attention to Kate Hudson’s love life, she had quietly split from Matthew Bellamy and she seemed to be using Derek Hough as her rebound/jumpoff. The first rumors about Kate and Hough were last November/December, and from what I can tell, they were probably dating/fooling around off and on for several months. Apparently, she’s done with Derek. Now she’s getting with… Nick Jonas.
Kate Hudson and Nick Jonas say they’re not dating … but does hooking up count? The 2 were all over the place — together — this weekend, first at Disney World in Orlando and the next day at brunch in Miami.
Kate — who’s 36 — went to Nick’s show at the House of Blues in Orlando Saturday night. Oh, right, he’s 23. It kinda makes sense. She was probably his jam growing up, and she’s still just as hot. The people we spoke with who know them say they’re not dating, but they’ve absolutely hooked up.
I’m close to Kate’s age and I have a crush on Nick Jonas too. He seems so sensitive, he writes good pop music and he’s got a great body. He’s like Justin Timberlake without the insane ego and smarm (full disclosure: I’m pretty sure Kate banged Timberlake back in the day as well). So, are you into this as a FWB situation? I kind of like it. I like it just as long as they’re just having fun and getting what they need from each other. If they dress it up as true love, I might have a problem with it. Then again, Kate doesn’t usually play that game. She gets in, hits it and then quits it with no hard feelings. Bless her.
PS… I think Bedhead referenced this in a previous story, but it’s worth repeating because it’s sort of funny: word around the street is that Nick dated Kendall Jenner for a second and then dropped her because she was so boring.
Nick Jonas & Kate Hudson Hooking Up? http://t.co/LcqSjB9Fva

I see in that last photo he’s mastered the Blue Steel.
Ha ha. So true. This couple is just gross gross gross. I thought only tweens would find this guy attractive.
Yeah, i don’t get what Kate Hudson sees in him.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t get the Jonas appeal! I mean he’s conventionally attractive but I haven’t lived any of his solo music and he’s just so try-hard with the constant showing off his abs. Just put your shirt back on, bruh!
Ot her.
Please forgive me at the risk of sounding rude, but what she sees in him, is a member attached to a young, nubile body. Hudson goes through men, the way I go through paper towels.
As for Jonas, he has had diabetes since he was a very young child, so I give him a pass.
JLO must be pissed. A young un got by her…but she wouldn’t like Jonas, He’s SUCCESSFUL and young.
Hope he and Kate are having fun. Why not. They probably are hooking up, having fun. So what.
They’re the perfect age for having a LOT of fun. She’s at her peak and he can probably go for hours. It’s a win-win physically, but obviously that’s about as far as it goes. I’m sure they both realize that. This is a relationship based on lust, and not much else. Why not.
AMEN!! I want to go for Hours with a Jonas Bro that isnt Gay or strung out!! SIgn Me uppppp
For reals QQ, sign me up too! Pass him along when you’re done 😉
Sabrine, that’s exactly where I went as well- they’re each at a sexual peak (she’s got the experience and confidence to ask for what she wants, and he’s got enough endurance to get it done), and she’s very good at casually dating without getting her emotions in the way, which is a great trait to have when you are having a fling with a 23 year old guy.
It won’t last, but I’ll bet they will both have a lot of fun.
Yeah…I’m still rooting for a Niley comeback.
Lol
Yes, and those arms that can’t lay flat
get that young d*ck gurl.
i’m 33 and i STILL would. *shrugs*
Classy.
i know, right?
@Idub: Uh, I think that was a bit of satire directed at you.
God, Idub, show some decorum and act like a real classy 33 year old and say it right, acquire the young genitals.
@judyk i know. my response was the same. 😉
I have a feeling this is a mutual career-boosting thing. Nick Jonas is rumored to like men and Kate Hudson wants to re-establish her A-list movie status. It generates enough buzz to keep her relevant again plus it makes Nick seem straight.
But neither of them is buzz worthy. He peaked years ago and even though she’s only 36, she’s a has been. I don’t see how them getting together would help either one of them.
Also, I’ve never read anywhere except here that he is gay. Not that I care, mind you; it just seems like commenters on this site seem very quick to label male celebrities as gay but never seem to really have anything to substantiate that (John Travolta excepted. He’s about as straight as Elton John).
She’s 36 and has two kids, and he’s 23…I can’t help but feel that if the genders were reversed no one would like this hookup at all. I certainly don’t.
Aside from the fame levels, that would be Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Martin pretty much.
That’s exactly who came to mind for me too! I recall people telling her to run for her life, he has kids, too much baggage, etc..
Yeah but part of that was the whole paltrow/ martin set up. If Jen had hooked up with some sexy older rocker i don’t think people would have disliked it so much.
Lets face it Kate is not conscious uncoupling or miss mom of the year. I think kate is probably a lot more fun. Martin seems like an old bore who brings his ex wife everywhere. Also a hook up is different, the martin lawrence thing was presented as a relationship.
This feels less awkward because she looks so young… especially on this photo with him.
Folks didn’t call Martin Lawrence gross. Just questioned if a 23 year old wanted to jump into an insta-family with a recently divorced guy.
Well, I think the difference is that this is labeled a hook-up, and so people’s reaction is to shrug and say, go get it girl. If it was being presented as a relationship, that they’re spending a lot of time together and he’s hanging out with her kids and they’re really crazy about each other (as the Martin/Lawrence thing was presented in the press), then people would most probably be warning Nick Jonas that he’s too young to become an “insta-dad” and that she has too much baggage, with two kids and two ex-husbands…exactly like people were warning JLaw about dating Chris Martin.
I find it creepy. Older mother with kids hooking up with another who is soo much younger. What the hell do they talk about? What will her kids think of her in a few years?
Who said anything about talking?
She lost me forever after she got back with Owen Wilson after he ODd on heroin. She had a small child. You don’t knowingly date someone on heroin. She also had her son around Lance Armstrong right when they started dating. She needs to stop introducing her kids to every man she dates.
I don’t have any problem with her dating tons of guys and having her fun and hooking up with hotties but don’t drag your kids into it.
Ditto. I don’t see her at all as a hit it and quit it type. I see her as a stalker who falls hard and fast then loses intrest but not before introducing the guy to her kids.
Her oldest son is old enough to see this now. Why is she out in public going to these high profile places with Nick? She can hook up with whomever she wants but be discreet about it.
Agreed. She not only hooks up with them and has them around her kids, she tends to have their baby. Kate likes having babies by various musicians.
She’s like some kind of perpetual groupie that has their kid. Please, let’s hope Nick has his sleeve on.
P.S. This hookup isn’t cool on any level. She does have her men/boys around her kids…eventually, and this guy is all of 23. At best her kids will know Mommy likes ’em very young, at worst, he will be a step-father figure – possibly even another baby daddy.
Jennifer she’s had two kids. Two. How that translates to having a kid with every guy she meets I have no idea. But hey, don’t let the truth get in the way of a good slut shaming!
@Ange: This!
Yeah but if you’re being the cougar, at least get some prime rib. Nick Jonas? Seriously….
I don’t find him attractive, sorry. As someone said downthread, he’s 23 but could still pass for a boy in high school.
My thought exactly. You’re Kate Hudson and THIS is the best you can pick? Ugh. At least he is not a mooches like JLo’s guy.
Also as someone else said, I have no issue with you having flings or casual relationships or whatever, but don’t bring your kids into it and keep it quiet. I get it, for celebs quiet may not be attainable… But if it is only for the quick sex, why go on public outings and make it look like a relationship?
I get why he’s in it. She can certainly teach him a thing or two.
She’s never gone with the classic good looks though, has she?
As an aside, I can’t get over how plain she is without makeup.
I’ve never been aligned with Kate Hudson’s taste in men.
And while I get that Jonas is “hot” right now from a pop music standpoint, as a man he just seems so… I don’t know, not ripe yet.
So yeah, for me, this just has some “ick” factor to it.
this is the only thing that bothers me. i never comment on age gaps no matter what, but so many seem to be fine with the older woman/younger guy situation but not the other way round e.g. younger women who sleep with older men apparently are gold diggers smh. double standards are VERY annoying.
also, i don’t find him attractive, in fact I think he’s very basic. but kate is super hot, this dude is lucky.
true, ……if this was a actor 36 male, with 23…young lady…many CB commenters would be calling the guy all sorts of names and the girl too.
Meanwhile in the rest of the world…CB is a very small place and in the real world, it’s actually the opposite. Young girl/older man is normalized and looked at as perfectly fine whilst the opposite get ridiculed. I’ve seen it even with a woman 5-7 years older gets called a cougar.
@hmph: You have a point. But I’ve also noticed that even when it’s an older woman getting with a younger man, or an older man gets with a younger man, it’s only the older party who gets criticism. But when an older man gets with a younger woman, both the man and the woman get criticism. It’s weird, but it seems like it’s more socially acceptable for a young man to want to experiment with an older partner (“She has so much to teach him.” “He’s lucky.”) than it is for a younger woman to want to experiment with an older man ( “Something must be wrong with her.”)
I think the difference is often that the older man is dating a younger woman who is generally not as successful or independently wealthy as he is. So there’s a power thing going on there — the old man gets to feel like he’s “in charge” and the young woman gets to feel spoiled and taken care of. In Kate and Nick’s case, he might be young, but he’s been in the biz for years, he has his own money, and he has his own “power.” He doesn’t need Kate for anything. I dunno… That’s why this doesn’t bug me quite as much. Having said that, I do think it’s pretty gross the way Kate brings all of these men into her children’s lives. She is definitely in love with falling in love.
Get it, Katie.
Odd coupling. Guess the Jo Bros took off those chastity rings. Come on Kate…..
Well, she needs to keep herself relevant somehow because goodness knows her acting career has gone nowhere. Never been much of a fan, tbh. There’s just something about her that rubs me the wrong way. Oh well…
Ditto. She was cute in Almost Famous and abrasive in just about everything else.
she was fun in “how to lose a guy in 10 days” but im pretty sure thats the last thing I saw her in and that was a decade ago…maybe?
For me it’s her always smug face that rubs me the wrong way. This guy has a similar smug look so maybe they’re not such an odd match.
She had this majorly b*tchy role in Glee, and also in ‘Something Borrowed’ and I cant help but see her being that way IRL..though I have a soft spot for her with ‘How to Lose a Guy’ and ‘Bride Wars’.. I get how she is polarizing, I go back and forth about her
She’s like Jennifer Aniston to me. She’s a one-trick pony who’s satisfied with mediocrity. I’ve never thought she was interested in being an Actor; I think she just loves being a Movie Star. So she chooses silly rom-com after silly rom-com because, hey, MONEY, easy schedule, nice wardrobe. There are definitely worse ways to earn a few million a year. 😉
I knew I wasn’t too old for Nick Jonas. I’d hit that all day long.
I’m 36 and have had the hots for nick for years. Good for her!
Kate has probably the most insane body of all Hollywood. I personally don’t see what she is doing with Nick Jonas since I thought her cup of tea were rockers who were close to her age..
Ugh, he looks about 16. Him and Harry Styles, I just don’t get how they get these older women. Styles has the face of a weedy little 8yr old whose features haven’t settled, and Jonas is just so baby faced.
I work with a lot of guys in their early twenties, and they all look like grown men. I don’t get why an older woman would want to date the rare twenty something male who looks like he could still be in high school.
I want to come visit you at work one day.
Lol!
He can’t help that he looks younger than he is. Why should that even matter?
It’s not that it matters that he’s younger. It’s why people find him attractive that is probably vexing. I certainly don’t get it…(not that it should matter if he’s less attractive, but if we’re going to judge women’s looks, I don’t see why the men’s looks should go unjudged either)
He’s not as repulsive as everyone here is making him out to seem, he just looks like a regular dude, not ugly, just regular. He looks like the guy from Jersey Shore.
*shrugs*
To me, Kate has a very average-pretty face with an amazing body so I don’t see them as such a mis-match.
He’s not repulsive necessarily but he looks like he got spit out of a boy band generator for tweens. Maybe he was…
You go, Kate!
I don’t mind her dating younger( as long as it’s legal), i feel like she could do better than Nick Jonas. Does she really want Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez’s seconds?
If it’s any consolation I think he may have showered since he was with them.
hahaha!
The commenters who like this are the ones that can identify, it’s all about where your head is at. They’re having fun and both seem to be able to handle that. Get it you two.
Your head at 36 is at a much different place than it is at 23. I judge this age difference when the man is older, too. It seems predatory.
To me it doesn’t seem predatory because it’s not a Courtney Stodden situation. He’s young, but definitely an adult (I’m his age, so it’s hard for me to see him as a kid) and a 13-year- age gap for just hooking up doesn’t seem all that jaw-dropping when there are actual successful married couples with the same age difference.
Yes they’re both adults, but “adult” comprises 18 to 100+. And maturity and wisdom (hopefully) accumulate with different phases of life, So a 36-year-old may not look at a 23-year-old as an equal, but as a young body to use–that is, they behave like a predator. (My opinion–but I respect what you’re saying.)
Wow. Kate Hudson is a f*ckboy. Ew.
Girl has daddy issues.
Or maybe she just likes having fun? Its not like she ever presented herself as some kind of one man kind of a woman
She seems pretty unapologetic and owns her life, I don’t have a problem with this.
I have a problem with her awful movies.
If she has daddy issues, why would she go with Nick Jonas though?
I don’t see daddy issues here – I see “make me still feel hot b/c I’m gettin older” issues.
@Rhosue
Daddy issues is when you go out with much older men.
It would probably be more accurate to suggest he has mommy issues if you wanna go that way,since he is the one with the history of dating older people….
You go girl! Surprised by all the judgement
I know, right? This comment deaction reads like the Daily Fail’s right now. He’s hot and an adult, why not? Get that D, girl!
She is ONLY 36?! No way…
There is WAY too much judging going on. If they like each other and are having fun, good for them! Life is way too short.
Am I the one who thinks that older woman/young man and older man/young woman is not the same? I have no evidences to justify my point, but I just don’t think it’s the same. My only judgement about Kate is that this dude is ugly and not interesting enough (as if I knew him, lol).
It is the exact same. The only reason you think there is a difference is because society has conditioned you to believe so.
True. Society conditions us to see young women as ‘ damaged exploited victims’ when they go after what they want, while young men are always seen as just that- getting what they want. If men and women are going to be treated equally, there can be no double standards about what kind of sexuality it is/isn’t okay for men to engage in vs. what kind of sex it is/isn’t okay for women to engage in.
Reading my post again, it seems like I believe it’s ok for older man to engage with young women, but it’s not otherwise. I actually think that when an older woman gets with a younger man, she’s proner to treat him better than the older man with the young woman, even if the older lady just wants to feel young and hot again.
Gross. I’m 29 and the thought of being with a 23 year old makes my lady parts shrivel up and die. Men that age are the WORST.
All the comments about 36 versus 23 are so sexist and judgey. People were telling Jennifer Lawrence to run for the hills but they weren’t criticising Chris Martin for hooking up with her! He is not my cup of tea but who cares.. he’s a step up from everyone’s favourite rebound guy Hough who will probably be hooking up with Kayley Cuoco before the ink dries on that divorce filing 😉
Yeah I was scrolling through the comments, trying to decide how I feel and I think I agree most with what you said.
As I’ve said many times around here I spent a good deal of my thirties dating guys who were in their mid-to-late twenties. It was fun but I couldn’t see a real future with any of those guys. I guess she’s just trying to have something fun and uncomplicated. I was feeling a bit judgey about the fact that she does have two kids at home but maybe I’m being unfair.
Yes. You have said it many times before.
It’s nice of you to notice. Truly. Very validating to know that you’re paying attention to me.
Ah, the charm offensive. Sorry but I’m in Australia and you’re in the U.S. I don’t think it’ll work.
I dont have problems with JLaws rebounds or Kate’s.. as long as they dont go for the Mayer douche. He used be everyone’s rebound and I’m glad to see the ladies finally taking notice of his ways.
She’s such a groupie!
A Band-Aide.
Since he’s 23 and she’s 36, I don’t find the age difference problematic. He’s now old enough to do what he wants and she’s not 70. It’s only a 13 year age difference — it’s not like the age difference between Steven Bauer and his girlfriend.
It’s why people find Nick Jonas attractive, I don’t get. He’s not as bad-looking as Casper (J-Lo’s boyfriend) though, so I guess there’s that.
Am I the only one who thinks that this is likely a set-up? It’s such a weird coupling. Her career’s not doing so great (not sure about his) and doesn’t he have gay rumors?
Been wondering the same thing! I’m curious how her finances are as of late. She hasn’t had any movies in quite a while and bearding pays well.
They went to Disneyland of all places – it reads a lot like they’re actively looking to be seen together. That and the fact that it’s all over the tabloids, IMO it doesn’t seem genuine.
The age difference is a bit gross, but I suppose it could be a lot worse.
So, so hot! Get it, Kate!!!! I LOVE this.
Kate is starting to seem VERY desperate…….for attention.
Kate annoys me as an actress but I respect her approach to dating (for her – not her kids).
I am 34 and cannot imagine dating anyone under 28 because I want to get married. My ex is almost 31 dating someone who just turned 22 and lives at home. It horrified me how not ready he was for marriage. This is a fling. End of.
I think in a lot of ways, celebs have to grow up faster than the rest of us peasants…super independent at like 18-20, financially successful, big career options, travel etc.. so I dont think it’s an accurate comparison to suggest 23 yo JoBro is like any other 23 yo guy. That being said, I am sure his goals of not getting serious with anyone are similar to any other 23 yo guy..and she seems emotionally about 25 and has the body of someone that age..so I think on paper, it kind of makes sense for them to be hooking up
@Andrea – same here. I’m 29, my ex is 31.. His new girlfriend is 22. It’s a sign of major immaturity. Totally agree with you that it’s a fling. People seek out much younger partners usually when they aren’t looking to be serious.
@Daria The thing is, we were on again off again for 7 years and I was the only one he ever dated. I knew deep down he needed more dating experience, but I was shocked at the age difference and he claims they have a lot in common (they are both into nerdy anime stuff; may I add we had a lot in common too gaming etc, but he seems to choose not to see that now). He called things off with me to date this girl saying I hurt him too much then told me stuff to make me obviously jealous (like they have a lot in common). The whole thing has been incredibly immature and a wake up call for me who will be 35 next year. Next man I date will be a man who knows what they want in life (marriage preferably). I couldn’t agree more with your above comments.
If your aim is just to get married, chances are you’ll get divorced after some pretty unhappy realisations. Shouldn’t your aim to be to find someone great and compatible, regardless of how they feel about the wedding scenario…
It’s a Kim K, Kaley Cuoco, Naya Rivera, Elliot from Scrubs situation. Wants so bad to just be married that the person at the other end of the I Do becomes replaceable, interchangeable, dare I say unimportant?
Surely a happy committef relationship is thousands of times better than an unhappy marriage?
Hes like Harry, he likes older women. He dated delta goodrem when he was 19 and she was in her late 20s.
She was 26. If the genders were reversed I doubt people would’ve had a problem with it.
Agree that nobody would raise an eyebrow of it was the other way around.
But to be fair she was 27 and he was 19. He was a teenager she was a woman pushing 30 .Grown women dating someone who is underage is more weird to me. At least now that he’s 23 it’s not quite as creepy.
That was a PR relationship to try to get Delta’s career up & going in the U.S. apparently.
When did it become a right of passage for grown women to bang Jonas brothers? I just don’t get the appeal.
Maybe this is gross, I don’t care, but I get it, Kate. I’m 34 and if something suddenly happened to my husband and I found myself without him, I’d be targeting men in their twenties, too. I mean, why not? They’re fit as hell.
She is botoxed to high heavens and this is the celebration a-la “I’m so young and hot”. This is not a cougar thing. She is friends with Cara Dl. She just feels herself that age too. Cameron Diaz was exactly the same until it wasn’t fun anymore, because you can’t be 19 forever. Demi Moore was exactly the same, until it eventually became pathetic, because you can’t be, in Demi’s case, 15 forever. We have to grow up.
Kate Hudson is so Absolutely stringy haired, plain, mediocre and thin lipped, There I said it
Jesus, she gets around….
Pathetic. Desperate, attention seeking behavior. She must have something with her head if she gets turned on by a guy who looks like he’s a teen. It’s like sleeping with your son’s best friend.
He still looks and will always be underage in my eyes. And I’m only 4 years older. I’m not into a baby face. But I think he has a body for days.
They would have weird eared babies
She’s only 36 and her options after her breakup are a 23-year-old Jonas brother and that bland dancer, Derek Hough? Wow, it must be hell to be in your 40s in Hollywood, if in her mid 30s hot Kate doesn’t have a ton of men after her.
I don’t care about this. It just seems odd when you have two young children. I would be drawn to someone different, at a different stage of their life. I remember being 27, had my career going, and newly single and going out with a gorgeous 22-year-old in college. He kind of pulled it off while out together around three or four times, but I ran into him with his friends his age at the mall one day. And with them the way he acted, which was acting his age, we were definitely at far different stages in our lives. He seemed like a kid to me. I ended it.
I didn’t realize she had been with the Hough guy. I thought he was gay.
She might be into the Jonas brother because he’s single. I figure that’s why women in their mid-30s date younger — because none of those guys are married.
I feel like this situation is comparable with JLo ..I think that bc these women look young and sexy, they want to feel young and sexy..and what better way to do that than to get with someone young and sexy? And yes, I think this relates to insecurities about aging in HWood and still trying to prove how hot they are by showing off their boy toys.
“and what better way to do that than to get with someone young and sexy?”
Then why don’t they do that? Neither of the guys they chose is at all sexy.
Eh. She seems like a wild child at heart. He’s probably a tiny bit more mature than guys his age. They probably have no strings attached sex and she holds onto some power because obviously they have nothing going for them but sex.
I get it.
Im 30 dating a 25 year old. we have a great time! no pressure just fun!
Manslinger Kate. I think she’s known for it.
I hate Nick Jonas’s music videos. He’s so dorky in them.
Ew.
She has really terrible taste in men. He seems like a douche.
She has alwyas had odd tastes in men….but a Jonas lol?
Kate always seemed annoying to me. She wants to emanate this hippy chick,free spirit persona when in reality she’s a desperate try hard.
I think this is a set up by their people just like Hough
Hussy!
Mmmm, wonder what the sex is like? That young man must have some stamina. Plus it could just all be made up.
She must want another baby; or she is the newest professional beard in H’wood.
Sorry everybody but I’m calling downgrade….for him. His last girlfriend was ridiculously gorgeous.
Meh. I’m 39 and the idea of “dating” someone that age creeps me out. Same if Jonas was the older one, but to each his own. The sex must be mighty fine…😌
Better use birth control. Her eggs like rock stars!
He’s really unattractive to me.
Matt Bellamy is dating a 23-25 years old blond model, what hell she can do the same???
PS: Kate, why Nick Jonas?
Get it, girl! (I have a crush on Nick Jonas too.) 🙂
Please forgive me for being so superficial but what the hell has happened to her nose?
He’s a baby in men’s clothing – leave him alone.
I say: WOMAN, GO FOR IT! Finally, us women go for the fun too! AND, knowing TWO happy, lasting realtionships, with kids!, where SHE is 12 years older, I’ say: Sometimes love conqueres all, even an age gap! Gasp!!!
I am really unhappy with women here making a fuzz, when all I can see in this world is that men are finally getting worried that there exgrirlfriends might exchange them for a younger! Girls, change your attitude! Amen
