Gwyneth Paltrow met up with Alex Rodriguez on Friday night at the Miami Beach Fountainbleu Resort re-opening party. Although the actress and the New York Yankee seem like an odd pairing, they share a common close friend: Madonna.

“She’s doing great!” Gwyneth told reporters when asked about how Madge is faring post-split from Guy Ritchie.

A-Rod didn’t answer any questions on the carpet about his rumored romance with Madonna, or anything else, but what happened inside the lavish bash was rather telling…

Although the hunky baseball player was approached by multiple lovely ladies, he didn’t seem that interested. While he was talking politely to a particuarly persistent brunette, Madonna’s BFF Ingrid Casares came over and ran interference, interrupting her advances.

Later, the baseball player was spotted deep in conversation with Gwyneth as the Victoria’s Secret Angels cut the opening ribbon mere steps away.

Madonna, meanwhile, spent the weekend in Los Angeles with daughter Lourdes. Sons Rocco and David are currently in London with Guy.
