Friends say Madonna & A-Rod don’t have a “deep and serious love affair”

Thanks to falling for Alex Rodriguez, it seems like Madonna is never going to get another piece of good press again. To be fair, it’s not like she’s gotten much good press in a long, long time. But she’s coming off as more unlikeable than ever, and that’s really saying something.

Madge and A-Rod have been reported to be looking at new homes in Manhattan for quite awhile. Madonna wants to keep Alex close enough that she can have him whenever she wants, but not so close that they’re living together. She also has a bunch of other requirements, like a non-nosy doorman. But despite the way they’re shifting their lives around for each other, a source told the Daily News that the pair doesn’t have the deep, mystical, soul-stirring connection they want everyone to think they have.

Alex Rodriguez insists that he’s not moving in with Madonna – but a source says Her Madgesty is on a mission to find him a new home base just a stone’s throw from her own. “Before his divorce, Alex was searching for houses on the upper East Side and Madonna offered to help him,” an insider tells us. “She wanted Alex to have a big house that would be suitable for kids, and she didn’t want a building with a nosy doorman who would talk. Madonna wanted a place where they could go and be together without prying eyes.”

Added a pal of the slugger: “They don’t want to be in the same apartment, but they do want to be near one another.” In addition to Madonna’s apartment sleuthing, A-Rod’s friend says, “Both sides have sent their reps to look at places.” Regardless of all the house-hunting, A-Rod claims that he and Madonna are “just friends,” despite the fact that both were conveniently in Mexico City last weekend. Rodriguez says his time was focused on running a baseball clinic for kids, but one source has a slightly different view of the all-star’s relationship with the Queen of Pop.

“Alex and Madonna are very, very cozy,” the insider reveals. “Yes, they are intimate, and they are intoxicated with one another. Alex can’t get over that he’s with Madonna.” But the insider has some sage words of wisdom for Rodriguez: “This isn’t a deep and serious love affair. It will last as long as Madonna wants it to,” our leak predicts. “She could get five or six years out of it – but only if it’s in her best interest to keep him around.”

Well I think that sums up Madonna pretty well. She’ll be into Alex for a while and use him while it benefits her, but as to the long-term, there’s nothing substantial there. It sounds like Rodriguez has a bit of puppy love going on. Which is funny since he’s long been reported to be quite the player. Now it seems like he’s being played. Madonna ultimately needs someone who is more complex and will challenge her and stand up to her. Though she’s drawn to people that follow her commands, in the long run they’ll likely get tired of her, or she’ll tire of them. No matter what, it sounds like A-Rod and Madge shouldn’t be exchanging keys quite yet.

    Love her or hate her, recent photos show her looking much happier – and softer…..as you do

    Jaybird! Madonna doesn’t need someone ‘more complex’ she needs someone that will take orders without question, do exactly as he’s told and then slope off without a whimper when she gets sick of him…

  3. daisy424 says:

    She looks like Faye Dunaway in those pictures, with a dash of Joan Crawford.

  4. EnKay says:

    Perfect description Daisy!

  5. CandyKay says:

    Much happier and softer? Her skin is so tight it looks like Saran Wrap.

    Based on the description in this posting, A-Rod sounds like a richer, more muscular version of Carlos Leon.

  6. Kaiser says:

    For shame, Candy! Carlos Leon is *actually* attractive. And a good father. Unlike SlackJaw McDeadbeatDad over there.

    Amen, Daisy. But if The Gristle knew you said that about her, she would crush you with her gristly thighs. Watch out! 😯

  7. Ter says:

    Her eyes are starting to look wonky because of the implants.

    Relationship wise – Madonna will seemingly be gald to drag her kids through another reationship, a very lop-sided one at that, and then show them how to truly emasculate a man. One of her mothering techniques I’m sure won’t end up in a “Madonna For Queen” type book.

    madge really does look like that madam puppet.

  9. daisy424 says:

    Kaiser 😀 You reminded me of that scene in ‘War of the Roses’ when Kathleen Turner did the same thing to Michael Douglas

  10. Kaiser says:

    Daisy, I was thinking Famke Jensen in “Goldeneye” 😉

  11. lola lola says:

    Her chicken cutlets are really grossing me out. Why would she do that to her face?!? Ick.

  12. Baholicious says:

    @Lolax2: You mean you don’t like her gristleplants?

  13. Codzilla says:

    I still say she looks like Jocelyn Wildebeest, or whatever her name is. At least a JW in training.

  14. Tina says:

    Like her or hate her, she is a smart woman whose tour has already made tens of millions of dollars. 🙂

    can you possibily see arod waking up with her when she turns 60? what a frightening thought, her ex husband seems really relieved to be rid of her. arod picking up the tab after him, madonna likes to tease men and shell only show a-stupid what she wants him to see, exhubby would know, worts bad breath and no make-up in the mornings now thats a real marriage. I just wonder how long she can keep this image thing up, I see her chasing toy boys at 70 and gyrating on the stage while still singing like a virgin. hurry up madonna propose marriage and lets watch this unfold

    I do not think this article is really telling us anything. It’s an unfair assessment of Madonna and A-Rod, based purely on conjecture, not even rumors. Two thumbs down!

  17. temper says:

    madonnas vile and needs to grow up, hope they end up with each other. I cant work out why its such a secret anyway who the hell do they think they are? only royalty get that privilege.
    mr madonna dumps his wife and kids for a crazy 50yr old woman whos still trying to find herself, her sweet and sticky tours are a complete contrast to her kallabah mumble jumble of godly and cleanliness, she should let her kids watch her concerts then she would know how other parents feel.

    the way madonna treats men in her life and the way she turfs them out before they turf her out, she will grow old and lonely and die a very single life in her big mansion, and the only thing left for her to cuddle up too will be all her $$ tucked under her matress, that perfect man shes looking for doesnt exist. one certainly cant buy love and one certainly cant afford
    self-respect either.
