Katharine McPhee turns 29 years old today.

But McPhee has received mostly positive reviews for her portrayal of Karen Cartwright, proving her acting chops and looking downright gorgeous in the process.
You won't see her on the list of winners from the Golden Globes, but Katharine McPhee certainly accomplished a rare red carpet feat before Sunday's ceremony:
Leaving Ryan Seacrest at a loss for words.
The Smash star absolutely wowed in a plunging Olivier Theyskens for Theory gown. McPhee, 28, said she was going for a sexier look than in the past.
Struggling to retain composure, Seacrest told her she “definitely accomplished sexy.”

The former American Idol finalist is featured in the latest issue of GQ, sizzling in a pictorial and understanding exactly how to sell her series.
"What if I tell your readers that in episode five I take off all my clothes?" McPhee jokes with the magazine. "I mean... no. But can't we just say that?"
Very funny, Kat. But let's get serious for a moment: How about half your clothes? A quarter of them?

Back in the day, Katharine McPhee finished second on American Idol (believe it or not, Chris Daughtry lost to both her and Taylor Hicks) and was known for her gorgeous looks as well as her musical talent. Term used semi-loosely.
Who knows what she's up to nowadays ... besides dying her hair! The singer debuted a new blond bob last night at the Ann Taylor runway show in NYC.

Despite pretty much falling off the planet since losing to Taylor Hicks on American Idol a few seasons ago, Katharine McPhee was overwhelmed by a pack of ravenous paparazzi while out and about in Los Angeles earlier this month.
Fortunately, the 25-year-old wife of Nick Cokas was rescued by a random homeless woman, Quween. It was apparently quite the spectacle.
As a result, FunnyOrDie.com has paired the celebrity with her unlikely savior in a faux infomercial promoting Quween's versatile services.
Celebrities from A-to-Z-list should not hesitate to consult this lunatic when it comes to all their pressing, paparazzi protection needs.
Would you want to mess with Quween?
Move over, Elizabeth Hurley.
Take a seat, Pamela Anderson.
Sorry, Jessica Simpson.
