A-Rod told friend he was in love with Madonna

Love is such a fickle thing. So is sexual preference. Apparently a guy like Alex Rodriguez can fall in love with – and marry – a woman like Cynthia Rodriguez, then turn around and fall in love with Madonna and her Hulk muscles. Clearly the guy doesn’t have a really specific “type.”

Us has an exclusive from a friend of A-Rod’s who says the baseball player told him he was in love with Madonna over dinner six months ago. Which isn’t really a surprise – the notion that the two had just recently met was clearly bullshit.

Just met? Hardly. New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez was smitten with Madonna six months ago when he was exchanging text messages with her while dining with a friend in Miami. “He kept smiling, acting as if he was a little kid,” the dinner companion tells Us Weekly in its latest issue, on newsstands now. “He told me it was Madonna,” A-Rod’s friend says. “I was shocked.”

The highest-paid player in baseball then “proceeded to say he was in love with her,” the pal tells Us. “I thought he was kidding, but he wasn’t.” By February, the 32-year-old slugger had upped the ante. “He said, ‘She’s my f–king soulmate, dude,'” the friend tells Us.

So was it an affair? “Without talking about specifics of sexual conduct, there’s no question,” her attorney, Earle Lilly, tells Us. “No one very often has pictures of the actual sex itself.” While Madonna, 49 – who put on a show of unity with husband Guy Ritchie last week – has denied a relationship with A-Rod, Us Weekly reports all signs say otherwise.

“‘My f*ng soulmate, dude.’” What a romantic statement. Really, the poetic eloquence of A-Rod’s statement would make any woman leave her husband of seven years. I got goose bumps just reading it. Normally that only happens when I read Rumi or Yeats, but that A-Rod really has a way with words.

This is going to be one hell of an ugly divorce. Cynthia Rodriguez seems to be fighting mad – and she seems to have pretty much everyone agreeing with her.

    Wow, so I guess if this is true Madonna must be fascinated by the sport of baseball. A woman I know was set up w/ A-rod (years ago) and dated him briefly. She broke it off, saying he was too boring, his conversation repertoire being limited to baseball. He’s been groomed from childhood to be a shortstop so that’s no surprise. Madonna doesn’t need his money, unlike other women who chase A-Rod, so it must be the long talks about baseball that draws her to him. uh-huh.

    In the header pic the lovely cheating couple looks like white trash. What’s with the fugly Ed Hardy t-shirt?! Classy! 🙄

  3. drm says:

    Wait wait…take a look at Cynthia R and then Mads…hmmm I wouldn’t say AR doesn’t have a ‘type’…

    And I know its mean but Madonna looks SHOCKING in that picture…absolutely shocking.

  4. ak says:

    So, this was when his wife was pregnant? Even more charming.

  5. blabbermouth says:

    In the banner pic, the left side of her face looks kinds like she was badly burned. I know it’s a trick of the light and shadow, but still…

  6. Granger says:

    Shouldn’t the title of this have quotes around the word “friend”? Cuz with friends like that…

    I haven’t decided for myself yet if this whole affair angle is true, but I haven’t seen so many photos of Madonna with her husband (or kids) in months as I’ve seen over the last week. Clearly, she’s using the media to make it look like her marriage is solid. Which does make me suspicious.

  7. stellapurdy says:

    I call bullshit on all of it. It’s always the “friend” who calls the mag with an exclusive. I wonder how much this friend was paid?

    And by the way, those Ed Hardy T’s aren’t cheap or trashy. Madonna on the other hand has always been cheap and trashy.

    Doesn’t Madonna have a tour coming up next month? This is all free publicity for her. She is such an evil genius.

  9. Blackalicious says:

    My hatred of All Things Ed Hardy is
    truly pathological.

  10. hello says:

    Paying a lot of money to look like trash via Ed Hardy is stupid. The two people who wear it most (in my mind) are Britney and the Rock of Love guy whose name escapes me at the moment. Poison guy. Whatever. Trashy. I like myself better for not remembering his name at this point.

    Alex Rodriguez does have a type is this Madonna thing is true. Women who are grossly buff. His wife and the stripper from last winter fit the bill too. He like’s them wire-y. Sinew-y. A bad steak.

  11. Marlene says:

    If Madonna isn’t happy in her marriage, just leave and find a man that doesn’t have baby’s at home..His wife just had a baby when the affair started…They deserve each other…

    I wouldn’t have him! And if Madonna keeps aging, the only thing she’ll have going for her is her money. Skank!

  12. Persistent Cat says:

    Anything Ed Hardy is douchey and trashy. I hate that shit.

    A-Rod is ugly. Aside from his $$$, I don’t see the appeal. I’ll take Jeter any day.

  13. vdantev says:

    So A-rod is gay, but so closeted he can only be with women who look like men.

  14. Trashaddict says:

    SUCKERRRRRRRRR…..

  15. Leleila says:

    What is it with these adopting women and adultery? Do they go hand in hand or something? First Brangelina, now Madonna?

  16. If says:

    IF this is all hype then she is a disgusting human being, for many reasons, but the first one that comes to mind right now are her children, they can read. Second, Rodriguez has a child, AND they both have(had) spouses. Whore be thy name and whore be thy game . . . which is it Madonna? Forget it, I don’t want to know, you’re just plain scum. Eff off, you douche bag fame whore.

  17. Fools says:

    Anyone that pays to see her concert would be called a fool in my book. I think that she is mentally off and the fact that she has ALWAYS traded her body for fame says it all for me, I mean, can you see someone with REAL talent having to resort to sexual antics to get butts in seats? You know, I actually think that she is a truly unhappy person and she must be unbearable to be around and makes those around her unhappy as well.

    Hey, This is a great thread. I found you on msn. Keep up the work.

    Gee. You’d think the sicko could have come up with a better name for his new penis, the way Bush/Rove/Cheney named things. They called it the Healthy Forests Initiative when they let the lumbering industry wipe out entire forests except for right around the edges so no one could tell. Following that nomenclature scheme, maybe the crazy guy can call his improved member “Your New Best Friend” so his enemies won’t realize what’s coming until it actually hits them. On its way down, all they see is “Your New Best Friend” whereas, “Ambassador of Death” would be a dead giveaway and they’d run for cover.
