What is going on with Madonna and Alex Rodriguez and their affair of the heart? Their hearts don’t seem all that interested in each other anymore. Though they were recently reported to have rekindled their romance, it must be one heck of an open relationship, because Madge is still spending a good deal of time with Brazilian model Jesus Luz, who she was linked to over a month ago. The best part – well, aside from the whole A-Rod debacle – is that Jesus is only 22. Which is the same age I believe Madonna likes to think she looks.
They haven’t been photographed together for over a month, but this picture of Madonna and Brazilian model Jesus Luz will fuel speculation of a romance. The singer, 50, left a restaurant with the 22-year-old in New York yesterday. The couple ate at the Marcelleria Italian steakhouse in Manhattan’s trendy meatpacking district, before Madonna took her children Lourdes, David and Rocco for a shopping trip.
Their lunch date came a day after Madonna was seen enjoying a family day out with ex-husband Guy Ritchie While Madonna was wrapped up for the cold winter day, which saw temperatures dip as a low as -4C, Luz appeared oblivious to the chill as he walked with his shirt open
They were first photographed in December, but appeared to be standing deliberately apart, after another dinner date in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Madonna met Jesus in December on a photoshoot with celebrated photographer Steven Klein for American magazine W. In the raunchy pictorial, a smartly dressed Madonna pulls topless Jesus towards her in an intimate pose. Madonna was apparently so enamoured with the handsome Latino, she asked him to accompany her for the remainder of the South America leg of her Sticky & Sweet Tour.

Just one nit-picky thing to point out to the Daily Mail: it was 47 degrees in New York yesterday. Quite warm for February. The kind of weather where some cold folks still had on their scarves, and others had their jackets open. It’s not like Jesus was so desperate to have his shirt open that he was enduring freezing temperatures or anything.
Jesus’ career is doing extraordinarily well since hooking up with Madonna. And it sounds like his ego has also grown in proportion. Last year his fee for a show was $225; this year he tried to charge $135,000 for the exact same gig. He also has dumped his agent, who says lots of people are interested in Jesus now, but they’re balking at his fees.
Since being linked to Madonna, it’s perhaps no surprise Jesus’s modelling career has been given a huge boost. His former agent Sergios Mattos, who runs 40 Graus Models, told the New York Post that Jesus stopped taking his calls after meeting Madonna and has now signed to the more high-profile Ford Models.
Mattos told Brazilian website Glamurama.com.br: ‘He stopped answering his phone, his mother quit her job… But I wish him the best. A source close to model also told Glamurama Jesus had raised his modelling rates since meeting Madonna. The source said: ‘He was asking for some $135,000 a show. He did the same job last year for a mere $225.
‘A lot of people are contacting him but because he keeps raising his rates, they are changing their minds.’

Jesus might want to reconsider assuming his worth has gone up exponentially. Madonna is very much the “love ‘em and leave ‘em” type when it comes to her boy toys, and I highly doubt anyone will remember this guy’s name in a few months. Remember that whole thing about the people you meet on the way up are the same ones you meet on the way down? Pissing them off with your giant ego won’t do you any favors. Neither will falling in love with Madonna – at least in the long run.
Here’s Madonna leaving Nero Restaurant with Jesus Luz and her kids Lourdes and David before shopping in the East Village yesterday. Images thanks to Bauer-Griffin.
Yeeeahhh, her IQ is showing …
Eh.
Can you blame either one of them?
Madonna isn’t getting any younger, so I mean, HELLO fine piece of trim. And this guy gets a pay boost just by being linked to her.
She’ll have her fun, and then be done with it.
Though, I gotta say, he isn’t THAT cute. :\
Madonna and child.
He doesn’t look to be the brightest bulb in the cupboard but hopefully someone will instruct him on the right way to ride this for all he can get, without pi.s.sing off the wrong contacts, then move on. Who knows, Madge might be using him to get under A-Rod’s skin. Hey stranger things have happened when it comes to this chick. And although I don’t care for Misz Ciccone one bit since she’s gotten older and starting taking herself so frackin serious, but why does it seem that these May/December flings only become a major talking point when it involves older women?
“why does it seem that these May/December flings only become a major talking point when it involves older women?”
I think because we’re hardwired due to evolution to think it’s weird. Seriously! We’re apes. In ape packs, it’s natural for an older male to take up with a younger female, because she’d be able to carry his offspring to term. An older female, however, would have no interest in a younger male, because she herself is no longer fertile. No baby means no need to go through any sort of courtship displays. She just has no interest in the younger male and vice-versa.
Fast-forward a few million years when we’re no longer living in packs or primitive tribes and the need to procreate isn’t the driving force in our lives– NOW we can start thinking about eye-candy! Biologically, though, we’re still in the trees, and our biology hasn’t quite caught up to our bodies yet.
At least, that *my* hypothesis.
she is messed up. i feel sorry for her children. she can’t even by common sense from the kabbalah center.
How drunk was he ?
I think Madonna has every right to do as she pleases. That being said, I just find it so sad for her children. She has been in two relationships and her divorce is barely final. She is a 50 year old woman. Yes it it liberating to say hey look at me, I can bang a 22 year old. But as some point you have to stop trying to be the “cool” mom and woman, and just be a woman. She is a smart and talented woman. Why does she not go after a MAN.. I’m just disappointed that she is taking this route. One would think that a mother of 3 would want more from a relationship.. But then I am only looking in from the outside.
Madonna and Jesus. Hey, aren’t models supposed to be tall? He doesn’t appear to be too much taller than she is, and she’s like 5 feet tall.
LOL @ geronimo. No kidding.
She’s just trying to prove to Guy Ritchie that she’s more than just a piece of gristle! 🙂
Yeah, Guy Ritchie was immature, but airhead A-Rod and this genius are pillars of wisdom apparently.
The control freak finally succumbs to her desperate gigolo stage. Someone send her a DVD of “Sunset Boulevard”, stat.
Touche Geronimo……..isn’t that incest?
….she LOVES that her boyfreind is named Jesus
What a sad, desperate woman.
AHAH! Madonna and Jesus. I just now caught that. Too funny!
He’s definitely doing it for the money and perhaps the lulz.
If she wasn’t exceptionally rich and famous, I wouldn’t understand why he’d be plowing that dried out slag.
she’s nasty
22 is usually still immature for a man.
he looks like her son, if she had had one with carlos leon
“Madonna and Jesus.”
This was meant to be.
Good for her, btw. Rich men have been doing the same thing for years and no one said a word.
