Alex Rodriguez threw an All Star party last night at Jay-Z’s 40/40 club, but none of his Yankee teammates bothered to show. He was there with his mother, who is coincidentally named Lourdes, (which also happens to be Madonna’s daughter’s name), and his manager, Guy Oseary. Oseary also reps Madonna and is rumored to have fueled the adultery rumors in order to drum up publicity for both of his clients. Also by Rodriguez’s side was Ingrid Casares, an old friend of Madonnas who has told the press she’s bisexual and that she falls in love “with someone’s soul,” which for her is “not gender-specific.” The NY Post hints that Casares might be having a fling with Rodriguez, because she was seen leaving his apartment the next afternoon. Maybe they’re just friends.
Rodriguez’s fellow Yankees are said to be fed up at all the press he’s getting for his “affair of the heart” with Madonna, which partially explains the snub of his party. There were also plenty of other All Star parties to attend that night. Shortstop Derek Jeter had a competing party at another NY club which drew more Yankees. Jeter is dating Mika Kelly and is not as much of a recent tabloid target.
Throughout the night there was buzz at A-Rod’s party that Madonna was about to grace the crowd with her presence at any moment. She failed to haul her tiny ass out of the Kabbalah pew long enough in order to do a favor for the fellow convert who’s kept her name in the papers:
ALEX Rodriguez’s teammates must wish they could divorce him too. “He’s become a huge distraction with the Madonna fiasco,” a source told Page Six. “It’s always all about him.” That explains why none of his fellow Yankees went to the All-Star bash he hosted at Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club Monday night.
Instead, his mommy, Lourdes, and his new best friends, Guy Oseary and Ingrid Casares, were by his side in a corner booth as he threw back shots. And Casares was then spotted leaving A-Rod’s Park Avenue pad yesterday afternoon.
Reps from Berk Communications, who’d slapped Madonna’s name on their tip sheet for the event, kept insisting she was on her way, but she never showed. Instead, A-Rod was entertained by big-busted hotties who shimmied to Material Girl tunes and desperately tried to make eye contact with him.

The Post has more gossip from the All Star parties, and say Shaquille O’Neal was beckoning various brunettes be brought over to him at Tao. He just sat there and would point a woman out to his security guy to bring over for him. The guy runs around a court for a living and can’t be bothered to get up in order to scope out the prospects.
I’m surprised Madonna didn’t show up to Alex’s party. Yesterday The Post reported that she was “loving” all the attention she’s been getting for her rumored non-affair with Rodriguez and that she was planning on attending the All Star game with their mutual manager Oseary. Instead she didn’t go, and she didn’t come to his party either. I wonder if Ritchie talked some sense into her.
