$850 Million Worth Madonna’s Met Gala Appearance Forced Alex Rodriguez and Then Girlfriend Jennifer Lopez to Take Drastic Measures Together in 2017

Throughout his 22-season-long MLB career, Alex Rodriguez, fashioned himself into one of the greatest power hitters and infielders to play the game. There was a time when A-Rod stood as the face of baseball, and an ultimate baseball icon whose success was unmatchable.

As A-Rod’s success in the park kept building, the slugger started getting more attention from around the country. Correspondingly, A-Rod has been in several relationships with popular celebrities across the states. Amongst them is a rumored relationship with megastar singer and songwriter, Madonna, which has consistently been denied by both parties.

A-Rod once tried to escape Madonna

Analogous to that, according to a 2017 Life&Style piece, Alex Rodriguez, and his then-girlfriend, Jennifer Lopez, consciously avoided Madonna. According to an insider’s report from the 2017 piece, A-Rod panicked, when he saw Madonna and walked in the other direction.

The reporter said, “Alex ran in the other direction. He did not want to see Madonna at all. It was hilarious to see a towering guy like Alex just dart across the room!” In addition to that, according to the report, J.Lo avoided Madonna who, “Went out of her way to avoid Madonna too.”

Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez

Alex Rodriguez has a long history of being in relationships with popular personalities. Similarly, A-Rod started dating mega sensation and popstar Jennifer Lopez in 2017. The J-Rod couple actively stood as a bridge between the two worlds of baseball and Hollywood. And given their popularity in their respective fields, their relationship was perpetually under immense public scrutiny. However, the globally criticized public eye worked out well for the couple, who turned out to become a strong, expressive, and adorable couple, particularly displayed by their alluring public appearances with each other.

Moreover, the power dynamic that often ends up killing relationships never existed between A-Rod and J.Lo. They stood as an extremely supportive couple who loved each other very much. Eventually, in 2019, the superpower celebrity couple got engaged.

But, then, COVID-19 happened, and the engaged couple’s potential wedding got postponed twice. Ultimately, after two delayed weddings, and a pretext that their relationship ran its course, A-Rod and J.Lo publicly announced the end of their engagement.
