A-Rod’s done with centaurs, now has a photo of himself & J.Lo above his bed

met Gala 2018 NY set 2

Back in the day, several of Alex Rodriguez’s former and current lovers confirmed one delightful and awful (delightfully awful) little fact: A-Rod keeps a painting of himself as a centaur above his bed. He likes to look at himself as a centaur when he’s getting down to it. He likes to wake up and look at Alex-the-Centaur first thing in the morning. I love that piece of information so much, I even mentioned it in the very first post confirming that A-Rod and Jennifer Lopez were starting to happen. Well, Jennifer is Alex’s transformative love. He’s no longer content to simply be the Centaur. Now he keeps something new above his bed.

Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez are a work of art — literally. “Alex has a huge picture of himself and Jennifer above his bed in the master bedroom of his Coral Gables mansion,” a pal of the former New York Yankees slugger, 42, reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly.

And his Florida mansion isn’t the only one graced with his likeness. In 2009, Us exclusively revealed that Rodriguez, who was dating Kate Hudson, had two paintings of himself as a centaur hanging in his bedroom. “You know, the half-man, half-horse figure?” an ex-fling clarified to Us at the time. But it seems the photo with his current love, 49, may be the most special. Adds the insider, “He says it’s his favorite piece of artwork in all of his houses.”

CB and I were debating whether this means that A-Rod REPLACED the centaur painting with a giant photo of himself and Jennifer, or whether the Centaur painting only resides in his New York apartment/home and his Coral Gables mansion is for the J-Lo love. With A-Rod’s means, you’d think that he could commission as many centaur paintings as he wanted for ALL of his homes. Perhaps he could even commission a painting where he and Jennifer are BOTH centaurs.

*pauses to look up the Wiki on centaurs*

YAS there is an ancient history of lady centaurs!! They were called centauresses. J.Lo could be a centauress with an ample backside, and A-Rod could be depicted as the larger, ‘roidy centaur galloping to her rescue. Why am I thinking so much about this? I don’t know. I just want to know which photo he chose to put above his bed. I bet he’s exactly the kind of guy who chose a photo where he looks amazing and she just looks okay. Does that photo exist?

    Omg I feel a bit embarrassed for her to date such guy. I mean if she was poor, then ok, he would be a prize. But she s rich and beautiful!!. Honestly I’d rather have 5 cats and a dildo than look at his fluorescent teeth every day

    Narcissism is strong with this one.

    I can’t imagine JLo putting up with tacky crap like that. I’m sure she’s working on improving his taste.

    Ps Wanted to add that once upon a time Alex was a sweet rookie with the Seattle Mariners. At least that was his image. He used to keep a blog/diary of his comings and goings that had great gossip value for a baseball fan. This was back when he and Jeter were best friends.

    I have a few comments and I will not be scared to say this:

    1. Jennifer Lopez, that’s a lot of extension on your head for your small frame.

    2. I think of J.Lo as a fashion icon but I don’t like this purple dress ensemble. Tacky. I wouldn’t wear and I am years younger than her.

    3. Lastly, I can’t wrap my head around this relationship. Jennifer Lopez, you are dating a man who loves himself more than he loves you. When will you ever learn to love yourself before you love someone else? SMH

      Kiki #3 is bang on. She always picks men who put her second. I’ve always felt sadness about that for her, she is a goddess, a triumph of light, bronzer, and joy. She’s always been such a blessing to the celebrity sphere. She needs to value herself as much as I do her.

    A-Rod, consider a landscape!

  6. JennyJenny says:

    That dude just really makes my teeth itch.
    But would we really want to see her again with the likes of the creepy Casper?
    Her picker has been broken for many years…

    She thinks a text “you look hot AF” is not only charming, but worth sharing with the world. I am not sure she knows the difference between being cherished and being chased.

  8. Jess says:

    I hope J-Lo is happy ’cause this guy is just kinda beneath her? Like …She is just so, so beautiful. Can we all just appreciate that this woman is almost 50? Like how is she even real? I wish she’d find someone who is worth her time…like some sort of billionaire heart surgeon who goes around the world saving orphans or something lol

  9. karen says:

    real talk though, i moved and have no idea what i want art wise in my bedroom. im not feeling portraits of myself [maybe i should reevaluate this ;)], but i do want something that would inspire me, and maybe be a bit sexy. thoughts?

  10. Kate says:

    Unpopular opinion: I think A-Rod won me over with his happy birthday IG posts to JLo where he posted a bunch of beautiful pics of her and a super warm message about how giving she is and how she deserves to be appreciated. Yes the post could be for show and he could truly be narcissistic at heart but I’m choosing to believe he really loves her. *ducks away quickly*

    Are those wax figures? I’m confused
