Nick Won't Seal Deal With Vanessa

Click to return to TMZ.comVanessa Minnillo just can't keep her hands off new squeeze Nick Lachey – even while he's trying to eat his lunch!

The brunette stunner's manual skills were in rare form and full view yesterday afternoon as the couple enjoyed an intimate late lunch at Manhattan's Atlantic Grill. Vanessa couldn't stop pawing, petting, and caressing her new man and she even strokes him under the chin for longer than forever – and Nick proves his manhood by withstanding the treatment.

Nick gives back – a little bit – with a sweet touch of her face. But despite Vanessa's considerable manipulation, she simply cannot get him to kiss her in public. After several attempts, Vanessa goes in for the big one, but – much to the vocal dismay of the paparazzi – she just can't get any satisfaction.

46. Wow. Haters. Get over it. There is no proof either one of them cheated. Although, Jessica has been seen with other men, she just doesn't call it dating. Maybe it isn't dating, maybe she doesn't even value herself enough no matter how much she spends on clothing and hair. Or she is into one night stands. Some women are (Not Me!) and it's more a selfish issue than a self-esteem one. Whatever. Just quit hating on Vanessa.

47. I loved Nick and Jessica together. Sure, the last couple of seasons she go on my nerves, and in ways was mean and inconsiderate of Nick. But I know they loved each other. Not every couple is perfect and not ever couple gets along 24/7. I bet behind cameras, they were happy to just snuggle and get on with their lives. Too bad the publicity had to ruin it for them. I kind of feel bad.

48. she is doing this for attention..Nick should not take her serious, I bet she is just a temporarily lay, until he find someone suitable, or get back with Jess. What do you think

49. I'm sorry for all you Nick and Van fans out there, but i really don't like them together. I am still one of those crazy Jessica fans who is still praying that they get back together.

51. I totally agree with question #6. Jessica's father is a leach! He should of kept his day job. I cannot stand Jessica Simpson, She's as dumb as they come. She gives blonde's a bad rap .We're NOT all stupid like her.
GO nick!!!!!

53. I said it once, and I will say it again. This Vanessa is NOTHING but a bad COPY of Jessica, there's only one girl Nick would kiss in public, and her name was/is/will be JESSICA SIMPSON

You Vanesa PIECE OF CRAP.

I found this post in a news website a few weeks ago, they make sense to me now.

54. I think this is all an act. i think Nick is just trying to make jesica jealous. Like a month ago Nick was saying how much he loves jessica and that he wants to get back with her and then out of nowhere vanessa is dating nick. I love Jessica and I think jessica and Nick make the cuttest couple. I would like for them to be back together. Jessica is really smart. She seems like a great person. Those who say Jessica is dumb are retarted and have to take care of their own life. Nick go BACK to JESSICA!! I like Vanessa but Nick and Vanessa dont match!!!!!!!!

55. I agree Nick is with Vanessa because he is trying to get over jessica, but this relationship will not last. Vanessa thinks she is all that cause she is dating Nick and he looks so booooored smiling just not to be rude. I think he's thinking about Jessica. Not long ago on the Rolling Stone Magazine he was saying how much he still loved jessica and how he would marry her all over again. If he really loved her that much he can't get over her in less than two months.

56. I LOVE Jessica. Everyone is defending Vanessa but who the hell is she. I think this is all fake. 2 months ago Nick was saying how much he loved Jessica and that he wanted her back and then out of nowhere Vanessa came into the picture. I think Nick is trying to make Jesica jealous!!If Nick really loved Jessica he wouldnt be dating already only after a few months. Jessica is the one who seems that really loved him because she still hasnt dated anyone. Nick be a man and get Jessica back grow some balls Nick. Jessica is beautiful and she seems like a great person. I like Vanessa but not with Nick. If Nick really is happy with Vanessa then i hope that Jessica finds someone 10times better then Nick and become very happy!!!

57. Nick got over Jessica alright....NOT !! that's just his male ego. when women hurt it takes awhile for us to get over it. we dont just fall into a new mans lap for god sakes. but a man gets over a women easier by seeing other women thinking that will pass the hurt, the pain is still they it only makes it a tab bit easier so they wont have to think about it 24/7. Jessica knows that they simply have a rebound relationship.please. it she called nick right now and wanted to work things out he'd purr for puppy-chow . I hope they get back together. at first i thought they had a chance of doing so, but when nick started dating vanessa it may have made jessica lose respect for him .also the fact that he moved on so fast weather he's happy or not he did it. Remember jessica is like PURE to him she was a virgin when they married. How many men can say that .she was very much into the church b4 she got famous she came from a christian family. and nick knows Vanessa is nowhere close as PURE as jessica was to him. he will always look at her like that. not saying vanessa is not a nice girl but she either fell in love real fast or skeaming for fame maybe she's the one who wants to make jessica jealous.but nick definetly still loves jessica I quess time will tell us all.

60. this is to Lola, #46,
I'm not being rude to you, I'm just telling you so you know!! There were MANY women who came out and said she had kissed or slept with Nick. Also, several women claimed they had been given his number by his body guard. His good friend from Ohio even said he hated him because he slept with his girlfriend. Too many women came forward and claimed these things. As for Jessica, the thing with Bam and Johnny Knoxville, ALL parties denied that. It was something the tabloids sturred up and had NO ground. After they're split something came out about Adam Lavine 2 years ago!! Please, that's not true!! There's a huge difference between the speculation of her cheating and actual women coming forward and saying things! He's a cheating loser!! Also, to the girl putting down Waco, come on....I graduated college from Baylor ($15,000 a year tuition)now I live in Dallas. My family owned a prodomant soft drink company that you probably drink today. Many great nice people come from there so keep your bulls*** comments to yourself!!! GO JESS!!!!!
