When pop icon Jennifer Lopez looked back on her special first date with former Yankees star Alex Rodriguez
In an October 2017 Vanity Fair interview, pop icon Jennifer Lopez looked back on her special first date with former New York Yankees star and her ex-boyfriend, Alex Rodriguez.
Apparently, the duo bumped into each other in Beverly Hills in 2017, 12 years after they met at a baseball game at Shea Stadium in Queens, New York.
And, a few days later, Jennifer and Alex decided to meet up again at Hotel Bel Air.
“He was sitting there in his white shirt, very confident and manly, but then he was just so talkative!” Lopez said. “I think he thought I was going to be this loud person, but I’m not. I just listen. So he’s talking, talking about his plans, about how he had just retired from baseball, about how he saw himself getting married again, all these things you wouldn’t normally talk about on a first date."
The part that caught the readers' attention the most was when Lopez talked about how Alex was uncertain if their outing was actually a romantic date.
"I don’t know if he thought it was a date. I thought it was a date."
Clearing the air, A-Rod responded by saying:
“I didn’t know if it was a date. Maybe we were seeing each other at night because of her work schedule. I went in uneasy, not knowing her situation.”
Alex Rodriguez sounds like he has no hard feelings when it comes to his split from Jennifer Lopez.
