Alex Rodriguez sat down with
Details magazine just hours before the steroids scandal broke. What was the biggest concern on A-Rod’s mind? A Madonna song.
A-Rod, who was sporting a red Kabbalah bracelet on the April 2009 cover, talks about his rumored love
Madonna, living in New York City, and why everyone is keeping a record on him. Here are some highlights from the interview...
On everyone keeping a track record on him: “We live in a world right now where everyone’s keeping score. And it doesn’t stop when the games end…They’ve crossed over. And you have the Internet stuff, and all these phones…It’s very intense.”
On living in New York City: “New York is one of a kind. It’s made me ask all the tough questions. It’s brought out the best in me. There are some things I have to work on. And that part is fun. Revealing the truth about yourself is always good.”
On rumored lover Madonna: “Well, we’re friends…I have a lot of respect for her…She’s very smart and she’s passionate about everything she does…if there ever was any situation, she’s a great ear to have, you know?”
