Madonna is reportedly becoming more and more infatuated by Yankees’ third baseman Alex Rodriguez. A-Rod, who allegedly told his personal trainer that Madonna was his “f-in soul mate, dude,” has been spotted at several of her concert venues, including her gig at Dodgers’ Stadium in Los Angeles, and the pair is supposedly planning a trip to Malawi together after her tour ends. Madge has been gushing to friends about A-Rod – but she’s also still taunting her soon-to-be ex-husband Guy Ritchie with obnoxious text messages. Because Madonna can’t sleep at night unless EVERYONE is paying attention to her- even her cast-offs.

MADONNA and Alex Rodriguez are turning to mush over each other. Sources close to Madge tell the Chicago Sun-Times she’s so smitten with her rumored Yankee lover, she informed a close pal he “has the heart of a poet trapped inside an insanely gorgeous body.” Rodriguez, meanwhile, has been writing “sweet, personal and rambling expressions of his feelings,” the paper reports. “Sort of like old-fashioned love notes.”

Somehow, I can’t see A-Rod writing poetry. Rambling expressions, maybe – possibly in crayon.

You’d think that with a hunky new guy to fawn over, that would be enough for Madonna, but of course, she still has to threaten and annoy Guy Ritchie. Apparently, she’s convinced that all of these leaks to the media are coming from him.

Madonna has been taunting Guy Ritchie with dozens of weird text messages.
Director Guy, 40, showed crew on the set of his latest film Sherlock Holmes one which read: “You’re going down.”

He said he found his estranged wife’s behaviour odd, but that he is used to it by now. And he confided in one pal: “This is her idea of a joke – but it’s not funny. Imagine what it was like living with her.”

Guy, filming in Manchester, has yet to talk to Madonna, 50, since their split was announced two weeks ago.

But she is said to be fuming details of their marriage have been leaked – and blames him.

A source said: “She loves to wind Guy up and this is just another example of her oddball humour. He doesn’t take these things too seriously. If he did, it would drive him mad.”

If Madonna really is as taken with A-Rod as reported, it won’t be long until we see them together. That’s gonna be weird. They are such an unlikely couple- I had a hard time accepting it. But A-Rod does like the muscular blonds, and Madge has a well documented thing for Latin guys, so I guess it makes sense they’d be lusting after one another. But the “heart of a poet”? Please.
