Mark Philippoussis - Age of Love

Philippoussis starred as the bachelor in the reality television dating show Age of Love on the NBC television network, in June 2007.

The show centred around women in or near their 40s and women in their 20s competing for his affection. At first Philippoussis, unaware of the special format of the show, was shocked at the ages of the "cougars" as the older women were called. He was shocked again after learning he would also be dating younger women ("kittens"). The final dates occurred in his hometown of Melbourne, Australia, including a date at Moonlit Sanctuary. In the end, Mark chose Amanda Salinas (the 25-year old Nashville Predators dancer) because it "wouldn't work out" with Jen, the 48-year old assistant to Jerry Buss.

Famous quotes containing the words age and/or love:

    I call the years when our children are between six and twelve the “golden years,” not because everything’s perfect . . . but because the kids are capable and independent. . . . They’re becoming fascinating human beings who continually astound us and make us laugh. And they build our self-esteem. They still adore us for the most part, not yet having reached that age of thinking everything we do is dumb, old-fashioned and irrelevant.
    Vicki Lansky (20th century)

    “It is with Love as with Cuckoldom”Mthe suffering party is at least the third, but generally the last in the house who knows any thing about the matter.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
