Alex Rodriguez Gossip

Divorce and baseball woes - Cynthia Rodriguez is poised to take tens of millions of his money and the Yankees are 10 games out of first in the American League East - don’t seem to be keeping slugger Alex Rodriguez down.

A-Rod was spotted in two differnt cities squiring two cuties last week - including one who sources say looks younger version of his estranged wife.

Rodriguez stepped out with a mystery blonde last Wednesday night, starting with a cozy dinner at Dan Marino’s restaurant in South Beach.

No word on whether the potential new base-rounding partner is Alex's type (a.k.a. able to bench press a small car like Joslyn Morse).

The duo showed up around 9 p.m. and shared a “fairly animated” conversation, spies told Page Six. “They looked to be thoroughly enjoying themselves.”

So much so that the third baseman and his date left the eatery and walked to nearby nightspot Bougainvillea. There, they sat at a secluded outside table that was shielded from prying eyes by some well-placed shrubbery.

Alex appears to have moved on from Cynthia Rodriguez quickly.

As Alex Rodriguez and his mystery woman got up to leave around 1 a.m., the pair seemed surprised to be greeted by a celebrity gossip photographer.

... you know.

Yankee slugger Alex Rodriguez is playing hardball against wife Cynthia in their divorce case, saying he wants their prenuptial agreement enforced.

In court papers obtained by the New York Daily News, A-Rod's side responds point by point to the July 7 divorce filing by Cynthia Rodriguez.

A-Rod admits the marriage is "irretrievably broken," but because Florida is a no-fault divorce state, he doesn't have to say why - and won't.

Claims that he "emotionally abandoned his wife and children" and that they broke up because of his "extramarital affairs and marital misconduct" are "immaterial and impertinent and should be stricken," Alex's court filing states.

This is in response to her petition to the court, in which Cynthia Rodriguez asked for the couple's $12 million estate and "equitable distribution" of all assets acquired during her six-year marriage to Alex Rodriguez.

While naming no figure, she petitioned for alimony and support, including benefits as life and health insurance and private schools - suggesting she be able to maintain the "high standard of living" A-Rod has provided.

A-Rod, whose 10-year, $275 million contract with the New York Yankees makes him baseball's highest-paid player, says he wants the prenup enforced. What the terms are is not known, but apparently they don't suit Cynthia.

Since his "affair of the heart" was exposed, the personal life of Alex Rodriguez could best be called tumultuous. At worst, a train wreck.

The Sun (UK) reports that things aren't well with Madonna, either.

Apparently, the troubled Material Girl was recently diagnosed with anemia and exhaustion because she hasn't been taking care of herself.

Or so the British celebrity gossip paper claims. You know those Brits and their celeb gossip. Says an unnamed source quoted by The Sun ...

“Madonna is doing less than OK. She has been rehearsing for the tour and she is totally miserable. She’s down physically and mentally. The situation with Guy is very, very tense. The way the press are going crazy with the A-Rod story, her brother’s book and her physical exhaustion are all taking their toll on her."

THE HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP NOTE: Is anyone surprised that Alex Rodriguez has exhausted Madonna? Those marathon sex tape sessions will do it every time.Continue Reading...

Guess he has a history of being brainwashed.

Several friends of New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez say estranged wife Cynthia Rodriguez "brainwashed him," the New York Daily News reports.

"Alex has always been into psychotherapy, looking for ways to make himself mentally stronger," a longtime confidante told the paper.

"Cynthia Rodriguez has a master's degree in psychology. Once she found out how vulnerable he was, she got into his head. Several of us begged him not to marry this woman, but he went ahead and did it anyway."

Did she allegedly abuse him this way because of his threesomes?

Not entirely, at least. A source suggests that C-Rod, who is Greek Orthodox, always disliked her husband's image as a Latino sports star and repeatedly urged him to downplay his Dominican heritage.

"She didn't want him typecast as a Latin player. She discouraged him from taking part in Hispanic community events," the source said.

As for the troubled third baseman's alleged "affair of the heart" (or sex tape) with Madonna that led to his separation from Cynthia, a source tells the Daily News that ironically, "Cynthia's the reason Alex met Madonna."

"She kept hounding him to call [Madonna's manager] Guy Oseary and get them backstage at one of her concerts."

For the record, there's a better chance of Tiffany Pollard winning an Academy Award than there is of this story being true.

Still, it's our job to report on all celebrity gossip making the rounds - and this one is a doozy!

According to Great Britain's The Daily Mail, a cameraman is trying to pedddle a Maddona/Alex Rodriguez sex tape.

The unnamed voyeur claims the tape was shot with a hidden camera in an apartment owned by one of the singer's Kabbalah friends, allegedly used by her and A-Rod for secret afternoon trysts.

Rumors of an Alex Rodriguez/Madonna sex tape are swirling. How would Josyln Morse feel about that?

Last night, Madonna’s lawyers said they were “aware” of the cameraman's sex tape claims, but would not comment on the rumor.

If the video is real, we wonder if Cynthia Rodriguez can use it in divorce court. We also wonder if there would be any point in continuing our careers as entertainment news reporters.

It simply would never get any better than this.

As the third baseman for the New York Yankees, Alex Rodriguez has been involved in countless double plays over the years.

A new report in The New York Post, however, focuses on a December 2006 double team that A-Rod enjoyed in a Florida hotel room.

According to TMZ, the controversial, soon-to-be-ex-husband of Cynthia Rodriguez was spotted entering a posh Coconut Grove hotel around the aforementioned date. The two women that shared a suite at that resort at the time?

Joslyn Morse and Alicia Marie.

Alicia Marie says she never had sex with Alex Rodriguez. But maybe she meant she never had sex with him without another woman around.

Both of these women have been linked to A-Rod's circus of adultery, as Morse is a veteran stripper and former Playboy model, while Marie is a fitness model that has denied any sort of romantic entanglement with the baseball star.

When asked by the Post about a late-night slumber party with the Morse and Rodriguez, she replied: "I really can't comment on that."

We sure can, though!

And the only thing that would make this story any more hilarious is if the Madonna song "Express Yourself" was playing in the background as Rodriguez padded his private home run total.

Beleaguered New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez admitted that "times are a bit difficult" in an interview with The Insider on Monday.

"I'll get through them," he said at the 2008 MLB All-Star Week party at Jay-Z's 40/40 club. "The support of the New York fans has been incredible."

THE HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP NOTE: It has?

Asked if he has been reading the flurry of stories about his divorce with Cynthia Rodriguez or the Madonna scandal, that prompted it, A-Rod said:

"None of it. Zero, zero. Thank you."

Well, that settles that. Alex Rodriguez has the blinders on, people!

Interestingly, Madonna was scheduled to attend the MLB All-Star Week bash. She was a no-show, however ... in person, at least.

The DJ at the event played a few Madonna tunes, including her new hit "Four Minutes" and classics "Material Girl" and "Like a Prayer."

Alex Rodriguez's "expression didn’t change," a witness reports. Phew.

During the night, A-Rod chatted up manager Guy Oseary - who also works for Madonna - and Ingrid Casares, who introduced him to his soulmate.

A-Rod — who spent the weekend with his daughter Natasha, 3, and estranged wife Cynthia Rodriguez, in Toronto — didn't look "devastated at all."

He obligingly posed for a photo with fans, but mostly stayed in the V.I.P. area, texting, watching ESPN's Sports Center, and drinking Bud Light.

Cynthia Rodriguez wants to know everything about Alex Rodriguez.

That includes his finances, what women he's had affairs with (cough, Candice Houlihan) and also if he's ben wiretapping and putting private detectives on her.

Seriously, it's in the latest court papers filed by C-Rod.

She is demanding that Alex Rodriguez produce documents about all things financial - his tax returns, banking specifics, mortgage applications, stock portfolio data, wills and life insurance. But that's not even the juicy part.

Cynthia Rodriguez wants "any reports you have received from a detective, investigator or any other person based upon surveillance of your spouse."

Alex Rodriguez reunited with Cynthia Rodriguez in Toronto last weekend, so he could see his two children. These Rods are still very much separated.

On top of that, she wants "all tape recordings and other evidence prepared from tape recordings made in connection with any wiretapping or other electronic surveillance conducted by you or others on your behalf."

Cynthia Rodriguez also wants "all electronic evidence ... contained in all computers to which you have access" over the last three years.

That means iPhones, BlackBerries, the works. Was A-Rod keeping tabs on his old lady - and will it come back to bite him?

The good ol' days of standing, deafening boos and simple "A-Rod, you suck!" chants are a distant memory. This guy commands a new level of taunting.

Last year, when he was linked to a certain manly stripper, fans tried to get in Alex Rodriguez's head (a DAUNTING task) by wearing Joslyn Morse masks.

Now that Alex Rodriguez and Madonna are forever linked, the highest paid man in baseball drew a similar response this weekend in Toronto, as some Blue Jays fans hoisted photos of the Material Girl before he went up to the plate...

Embattled Yankees star Alex Rodriguez was able to keep the blinders on, however, hitting .307 with a home run over this weekend series in Canada.

Toronto did defeat New York twice in three games to keep the Yankees six games out of first in the American League East. No word on whether any Blue Jays fans brought photos of Candice Houlihan or Alicia Marie to mix things up.
