Madonna has finally broken her silence about her alleged affair with Alex Rodriguez. In an exclusive statement to People magazine Madonna says,

My husband and I are not planning on getting a divorce. I know Alex Rodriguez through Guy Oseary, who manages both of us. I brought my kids to a Yankee game. I am not romantically involved in any way with Alex Rodriguez. I have nothing to do with the state of his marriage or what spiritual path he may choose to study.

Madonna may think that she had nothing to do with the state of A-Rod’s marriage but according to Cynthia Rodriquez’s lawyer, Earle Lilly, Madonna’s relationship with Alex was “the straw that broke the camel’s back.”

And Celebrity News is reporting that A-Rod’s former trainer claims that “‘Alex, God bless him, is lost. ‘He’ll only listen to [her] music’ while driving, and goes ‘into a trance’ if one of her videos comes on at the gym. ‘He’s more infatuated with the fact he’s with an icon instead of realizing what’s important, which is family and truth. Alex [is acting like] he wants a divorce.’”

That is kind of creepy. Madonna makes it seem like they are mere acquaintances and Alex sounds like a stalker. Maybe Madonna should consider getting a restraining order against him. What do you think?

Cynthia Rodriguez is blaming Madonna and her religion, Kabbalah, for breaking up her 5 year marriage to A-Rod.

A-Rod, who plays for the New York Yankees, has been spotted making late night visits to Madonna’s apartment that date back as early as the day his 2nd child was born.  According to the Daily News, Cynthia told a friend,

I feel like Madonna is using mind control over him.  I don’t recognize the man he’s become.  He was a sweet, beautiful, loving husband and father.  Today, he’s very cold and calculating.

And to add insult to injury a source close to the family claims that Cynthia “found a letter where Alex told Madonna: ‘You are my true soul-mate.”

Cynthia, who is completely devastated about splitting from her husband, has reportedly flown to Paris to be with Lenny Kravitz and “to clear her head.”

I can’t believe A-Rod would chose Madonna over his wife.  I know looks aren’t everything, but his wife is hott!!  Madonna is just old and nasty.

Us Weekly reports that Madonna’s seven year marriage to director Guy Ritchie is on the fritz because the singer has been spending a lot of time with her NY Yankee ‘friend,’ Alex Rodriguez, at her Central Park West apartment in New York City.

Here are the mag’s details:

– Rodriguez, who makes $28 million/year, has been meeting Madonna at her NYC home and would sneak out “as late as midnight,” said a source. “All the doormen are talking.”

– Rodriguez attended Madonna’s April 30th NYC concert

– Madonna, 49, sat in Rodriguez’ seats at a Yankees game on June 22nd (it was her first time getting photographed at a Yankees game)

– Rodriguez, 32, married with two young daughters, has already faced speculation about cheating: In 2007, he and a stripper were reportedly spied in Toronto, Miami and Dallas.

FYI: A ringless Guy Ritchie, 39, arrived in New York City from London yesterday after almost a month apart from his family.

Madonna’s rep, Liz Rosenberg, has recently shot down these rumors, telling People magazine,

“Madonna’s husband Guy arrived in New York last night to be with his wife and family–not in a last ditch attempt to save his marriage which does not need saving. There are no plans for Madonna and Guy to divorce.”

She continues, “Madonna and Alex have the same manager, Guy Oseary. They have met. They know each other and Madonna took her kids to a Yankees game last week. There’s really not anything to comment on beyond that. It’s nothing new that people are airing tons of dirty laundry Madonna’s way lately – much of it untrue.”

Rosenberg jokes, “By the way, rumors of Madonna and Lil Wayne are quite exaggerated, as well.”

Do you think Madonna is cheating on her Guy?
