Nick Lachey reportedly poked fun at his marriage break-up with Jessica Simpson when he was honored by Cosmopolitan magazine Tuesday but confessed that he was "afraid" of life as a single man.
In his acceptance speech Nick told guests, "I'm really intrigued by this book. It's called 'A Break-Up Because It's Broken.' ... I wish I'd read that a few years ago ... It's a little ironic to receive the Fun and Fearless Award right now because, in some ways, I feel that, at this point in my life, I've never been more afraid."
