Alex Rodriguez Might Be Sipping On Madonna’s Kabbalah Water. So To Speak. Plus: Vote On A Couple’s Name!

After much speculation and commiseration and hateration and whatnot, it appears that rumored lovebirds Alex Rodriguez and Madonna have so much more in common than their mutual love of building unsightly muscle mass and cheating on their respective spouses:

The Post links the two stars together through two things: they share an agent (Guy Oseary) and apparently A-Rod has a burgeoning interest in kabbalah. (You may know it as the non-Scientology “celebrity” religion based on Jewish mysticism and claims Madge, Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher as followers.) The paper has fun with this, featuring a list of “What kabbalah has to offer A-Rod:” which includes, “If it helps him hit better in the clutch, we say mazel tov! and “The numeric teachings of kabbalah will help A-Rod count the number of commandments he’s broken.”

Alex was even spotted visiting a Kabbalah center in South Florida, which we can only hope incited the ire of South Florida’s actual, devoted Jewish mystics. So, is it about time we come up with a name for these two? Shut up and don’t even act like you’re above it:

Maddex?

A-Mod?

MadRod?

We just don’t know…
