out of all the women in the world -- A-Rod chooses Madonna?!?!

[Blue_Tires]

if true, i don't get it...I'm down with the Borderline Madonna and the Who's That Girl Madonna (the Truth or Dare Madonna is still the one i wanted most)...But the Madonna of today doesn't do much for me, and given her history, is bound to cause a few headaches...Maybe it was one of those Aston Kutcher type things, where A-Rod was fantasizing about Madonna back when he was a 12-year-old nobody and now he has a chance to realize the dream...who knows?

[Sugar Smack]

1. Who's A-Rod?

[mainegreen]

4. And there it is!

:rofl:

:thumbsup:

[latebloomer]

5. I don't know either, but

He sounds muy macho!!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

8. i think he plays some sort of sport.

for those of you who think i am joking, am not. that is all i know about him

[bicentennial_baby]

9. And you live in NY?

:crazy:

He's one of the stars of the Yankees. They play baseball, in case you didn't know that too.

:P

[La Lioness Priyanka]

12. yes, i care that little about sports. in many ways i hate mens group sports

but do not wish to get flamed here.

[Blue_Tires]

30. and all this time, i thought you were a fellow mets fan

i'll get you converted yet...there is going to be a new stadium in queens next year...:nuke: :party:

[Sugar Smack]

16. I was prepared for the philistine smackdown!

:loveya: :rofl: And then again too flaked to go look it up. I just googled him. Thanks for the info, bijou!

[Reverend_Smitty]

10. this guy

although I'm not sure if even Yankee fans can stand him

[Bunny]

2. She's as famous as he is, and more importantly, as rich as he is.

Those kind of people understand each other, I think.

[flvegan]

3. Aren't they both also kabbalah-ists?

Or whatever it's called. She's also quite famous, wealthy and likely a youthful fantasy. On top of that, she's a strong, independent woman which is attractive to many men. I still think she's hot, to boot.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

6. i get it. madonna is hot, rich, powerful and highly intelligent.

if she were a man she could have a bevy of younger women swarming around her at all times

[PeaceNikki]

11. heh. GMTA

I hate that "out of all the women in the world" crap because it means there's shock over the fact she's not a 22 y/o with implants. I, for one, think Madonna is nothing short of incredible.

And, you're 100% right, all of her qualities would be seen as perfection in a man.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

13. LOL! i saw your post, right after mine and thought "GMTA"

:P

[Blue_Tires]

31. actually, there is some shock he didn't opt for the 22 y/o with implants

given his track record, of course...

7. Madonna is a beautiful, intelligent and strong woman.

Why is that so hard to understand?

[Bake]

24. Intelligent and strong, yes.

Beautiful? Used to be OK. Every time I look at a photo of her all I see is the gap in her teeth. Geez, can't she afford to get those fixed?

Plus, she's too thin these days.

[PeaceNikki]

26. Well, ya know, opinions are like assholes.

[HamdenRice]

14. The local gossip sheets are saying he was brainwashed by kabbala

That's the angle in the local papers, apparently fueled by what Mrs. A-Rod herself believes.

[JackBeck]

15. I think Madonna looks fantastic.

Any guy that Madonna wanted to be with should consider himself lucky.

[Reverend_Smitty]

17. lol seriously...

I don't know what she sees in A-Rod? :shrug:

[JackBeck]

19. Guy Oseary manages both of them.

The rest is idle gossip, which Madonna has cornered the market on over the past 25 years.

She's about to launch a World Tour in about a month and has just dropped a new album. I've noticed over the past few years each time she's got a new album or new tour, her marriage is all of a sudden destined for the divorce courts.

[Kerrytravelers]

18. This is all I know of A-Rod which, to me, speaks volumes:

This is not a smart man. What Madonna is doing with him, I'll never understand.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

20. excellent,. nt

[JackBeck]

21. A few months ago I was at a party with a fellow DUer.

She introduced me to the only Republican in the room, who just so happened t be A-Rod's real estate agent.

Of her few observations of the man, she recalled how dumb he was. Madonna's just using him for some PR. It's one of the many things she does well.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

22. the woman is very highly intelligent.

[JackBeck]

28. Absolutely.

Something that people tend to never give her credit for.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

29. its because she is pretty and blatantly sexual. makes people want to take away her intelligence

because clearly if you were smart, you wouldnt bother to find a way to make millions, by using what you have.

[Midlodemocrat]

23. Seriously. He could have had me.

Not really.

[crimsonblue]

25. there's a reason it's in the tabloids

namely, because it's false.

[johnnie]

27. Madonna is still around?

Never did much for me personally. She's ok and all, but nothing mind-blowing.

[underpants]

32. Well....

you should see her start the Harley :wow:

[Deja Q]

33. It's a perfect match. A-Hole plus a hole.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

34. madonna isn't just a hole. thats stupid and sexist. she is far more, than most of us

can ever hope to be

[Orrex]

35. Maybe "a whole" then?

As opposed to the rest of us, who are just "parts?"

:P

[La Lioness Priyanka]

37. lol

:P

[av8rdave]

36. I never "got" Madonna

I know she's talented, and a brilliant businessperson (read a great article about that in either Forbes or Fortune many years ago), but I guess I just never really got into her for some reason.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

38. Well, I guess if women can hook up with men almost twice their age, the reverse could also be true

It's less common, but it does happen, i.e. Demi and Ashton. Although I think Demi still looks just as good as she did 15 years ago, whereas Madonna hasn't done quite as well (although she's far from bad looking nonetheless).

Oh well, I really don't care. Whatever makes them happy and their exs miserable. They both strike me as being somewhat vapid, so I guess it's a good match.
