Nikki Cox has played sexy characters on television, but in real life she only has eyes for one man — Bob "Bobcat" Goldthwait.

The 22-year-old star of the WB sitcom "Nikki" is engaged to the caffeinated comedian, who is 16 years her senior. The two met on the set of "Unhappily Ever After," the defunct WB comedy in which Cox got her big break and Goldthwait was the voice behind a puppet named Mr. Floppy.

"I had a mad crush on him and told him so," she says in the March issue of Gear magazine.
