Alex Rodriguez


A-ROD: BANK ROBBER OR BASEBALL STAR?



Everyone knows NY Yankee Alex Rodriguez likes to fly under the radar as much as possible, especially now he seems to be getting it on with his latest squeeze, actress Kate Hudson.

But we caught up with him having lunch in midtown Manhattan yesterday, and it looked like he could have been planning his next bank hold-up.

A-Rod was deep in conversation with his manager, Guy Oseary.

But we think he could have done without the hat and shades.


   

KATE HUDSON AND A-ROD GO APARTMENT HUNTING



Actress Kate Hudson was out-and-about in NYC today.

And what was she doing with her NY Yankee beau, Alex Rodriguez, on his day off?

Apartment hunting, of course.

Looks like this odd relationship could be all set to go the distance as we spotted the lovers visiting at least five exclusive apartment buildings with their realtor.

The couple spent the morning being driven from one high-end building to the next.

Then, after signing autographs for a member of the NYPD, Kate and A-Rod met up with Kate's son Ryder and they all enjoyed a late lunch at Bar Piti dowtown.

A-ROD AND K-HUD IN TORONTO



Trying very hard not to be photographed together.. Kate Hudson and her new beau Alex Rodriguez were spotted walking around Toronto yesterday afternoon.

The Bride Wars star has been spotted at numerous Yankee games recently and seems to be bringing the third basemen.. as well as the Bombers.. loads good luck!!

After sweeping the Blue Jays in their 2-game series the boys come back to the Bronx for a 4-game series against the Boston Red Sox!! I can't wait!!

Check out our gallery of the couple in Toronto...


    

KATE HUDSON: A-ROD DATENIGHT



She can run, but Kate Hudson cannot hide!

The actress has regularly been seen in the crowd at numerous New York Yankee games, cheering on her new beau Alex Rodriguez.

But when it comes to being seen out in public with Madonna's ex, Kate doesn't want anything to do with it.

Maybe that's why the second she spotted our photographer last night, Kate made a dash from her cab to the door of Alex's NY apartment.

Meanwhile, the shy baseball player who was inside the taxi with her, left the scene, only to return minutes later and run inside.

And, because we know you care, YES Kate DID stay the night.

This relationship/lovefest is definitely on...even if they are an odd celebrity match-up.

KATE HUDSON DINES WITHOUT A-ROD



Actress Kate Hudson went out on the town in NYC last night, and her new beau Alex Rodriguez was nowhere to be seen.

Rumors have been flying after Kate and A-Rod were spotted dining together in recent weeks and she also attended a few of his Yankee games.

Seems like this odd couple have certainly got something going on.

But last night, A-Rod headed to Boston where he's playing today and Kate settled for an evening out with Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas.

A ROD WON'T TALK ABOUT KATE HUDSON RUMORS



If the rumors are true, Yankees ace Alex Rodriguez certainly dishing the dirt on his reported new chick, actress Kate Hudson.

Reports have suggested the two got it together after a recent game in New York.

But when we caught up with A-Rod, ex-wife Cynthia and daughter Natasha enjoying some family time together, he simply laughed off our questions...so it must be true.

We're just not sure what Madonna is going to think of his choice in women.

EXCLUSIVE: A-ROD RETURNS TO THE GYM AFTER COMING CLEAN ABOUT THE 'ROIDS

Alex Rodriguez went to a Miami gym this morning, after confessing to ESPN yesterday that he did in fact use performance-enhancing drugs. We don't yet know A-Roid's fate, but some of his sponsors could be dropping out.  One of his sponsors, Nike has released a statement saying, "Nike does not condone the use of illegal substances in sport and agrees with Alex Rodriguez that they should not be used," a rep for the company has said. "We will have no further comment at this time."



A-ROID 'FESSES UP TO DRUG USE



This has been quite a year for Alex Rodriguez; birth of his daughter, immediately divorcing his wife afterwards and an affair with Madonna but it don't stop there- A-Rod has just confessed to using performance enhancing drugs, aka steroids, during his time with the Texas Rangers.

The confession comes after Sports Illustrated’s website reported that A-Roid had tested positive for steroids in 2003, when he was in his last season with the Texas Rangers and won the first of his three Most Valuable Player awards.

“When I arrived at Texas in 2001 I felt an enormous amount of pressure to perform,” he told Peter Gammons of ESPN this afternoon.  “Over all, I felt a tremendous pressure to play, and play really well," he added. “I had just signed this enormous contract. I felt like I needed something, a push, without overinvestigating what I was taking, to get me to the next level.”

Alex said he did not know exactly what substances he took, but that he hadn’t taken substances since an injury in spring training in 2003. "It wasn’t a real dramatic day,” he said. “I started experimenting with things that today are not legal, that today are not accepted,” he said.

A-Roid joined the Yankees in 2004 and says that he has been "clean" ever since. 

It is not certain yet what the ball player's fate will be, but he did express regret over his actions. “Back then it was a different culture. It was loose. I was young. I was stupid. I was naïve. And I wanted to prove to everyone that I was worth being one of the greatest players of all time. I did take a banned substance, and for that I am very sorry and deeply regretful.”



A-ROD'S CUP SPILLETH OVER



We spotted Alex Rodriguez getting some off-season training in and it's clear that he's taken the time to keep his assets protected while doing so.  The New York Yankee is currently in Miami getting in some practice while waiting for Madonna to come back from tour and take the place of his athletic supporter.
