As Alex Rodriguez Haunts the Spotlight with Fox Antics, Ex-Fiance Jennifer Lopez Recalls Her Yankees Fandom Days on a ‘Scary’ Halloween

Alex Rodriguez has a knack for staying in the news. Be it his playing days or his new inning as an analyst, he finds a way to be in the public eye. Sometimes it is achievements, a scandal, or maybe predictions. It can be business or dating—the former Yankees star has got it all covered. But he’s not the only one who knows how to stay in the limelight.

A-Rod’s ex-fiance is no less tabloid. American singer Jennifer Lopez needs no introduction; she is one of the most recognizable names in pop culture. The 54-year-old ‘Dance Again’ singer has tasted stardom, only rivaled by a few. While the couple is no longer together, fans once in a while get to see something that jogs their memory and is a throwback to the times gone.

Jennifer Lopez’s Yankee Connection

Recently on Halloween, J-Lo posted a story that piqued curiosity. The collage saw her two pictures side by side; one was a throwback, and the other was a more recent one. But they had one thing in common: ‘a Yankees hat’. Although a Yankees hat is a pretty common sight, being one of the most popular pieces of apparel, it was JLo’s tied-in history that was the main center of attraction.

JLo wearing a Yankees Hat is also a point of discussion as it comes in stark contrast to the fact that she and her husband Ben Affleck have been self-professed Boston Red Sox fans, often being seen donning the BoSox colors. With the two teams being such traditional rivals, it is very rare for passionate fans to just simply switch allegiances.

Lopez has a connection to the Yankees, one that must be close to her heart. It is no secret that she and Yankee legend, Alex Rodriguez, were in a 4-year log romantic relationship before she was married to Ben Affleck. The former couple was even engaged. With such a history linking JLo to the Yankees, is it much of a surprise to find she has a soft spot for her ex-fiance’s team?

Celebs and Yankee hats, a long trend

The Yankee hat is a staple and seeing celebrities wearing the iconic print has been a trend for the ages. The list includes sports stars such as  Dwyane Wade, Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham, Mohammed Ali, LeBron James, and Serena Williams. Singer Madonna alongside Actor Denzel Washington has donned the hat. Even in the world of politics, former First Lady Hillary Clinton, among others, has done the same.

The JLo picture might very well be an innocent throwback, a fashion statement, or a statement about her dating past. Speculations abound if Singer was sending a message or professing her feelings for A-Rod. No matter what the reason might be, it has surely got social media and fans up in a debate.
