“I Think He’s Done It Right” – Alex Rodriguez Once Dubbed Hollywood Heartthrob George Clooney His “Role Model” After Another Failed Relationship

Ever since A-Rod’s marriage to Cynthia Scurtis reached an unfortunate end, the New York Yankees’ shortstop-turned-baseman entered a popular list of eligible bachelors with copious temporary relationships. Amongst the long list of celebrities that Alex Rodriguez dated, his relationship with Cameron Diaz lasted for a few months from 2010 to 2011.

Despite the short duration of their relationship, a few months after their relationship came to an end, in a very non-A-Rod-like manner, the World Champion complimented Cameron Diaz. Not only that, but he also gushed over her. And called her one of the “greatest humans” he’s ever met.

However, after their relationship came to an end, A-Rod was asked about his role model. To this, the slugger had a unique and interesting response, after he named the American actor who is popularly dubbed as the world’s most famous eternal bachelor.

Who was A-Rod’s role model after his breakup with Cameron Diaz?

As reported by Fox News in a piece from 2017, A-Rod revealed George Clooney as someone who he adulated. On being asked about his hero, A-Rod said, “I’m not sure. I think my new hero is George Clooney.”

A-Rod added, “He’s my new role mod. I think he’s done it right.”

Dating Jennifer Lopez

Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez started dating in 2017. Before the J-Rod relationship commenced, A-Rod’s streak of unsuccessful relationships was only nurturing. And at a steady pace. However, after meeting JLo, everything changed and the shortstop was now being viewed as the perfect boyfriend.

Soon after their first encounter, the couple introduced each other to their families. And the chatter around their relationship was almost always about their heartwarming public appearances. Everything looked fitting. And the couple’s engagement became official through an Instagram post in 2019.

However, one year after their engagement, the pandemic struck. Two planned weddings had to be canceled. And rumors of their split broke the ground.
