A relationship with pop-sensation Jennifer Lopez eventually marked the resurgence of popularity for stained Yankee slugger Alex Rodriguez. Their relationship, which soon received the ship name J-Rod, played an active bridge between the two worlds of Hollywood and MLB. Their alluring public appearances redefined the idea of relationships. Similarly, back in 2019, on JLo’s 50th birthday, shortstop-turned-business magnate A-Rod bought the pop sensation a 2019 red 911 Carrera GTS Porsche worth above $140,000.

However, shortly after getting surprised in awe at the car A-Rod bought her, JLo paid the slugger back with a priceless gift on his 44th birthday, which displayed why the couple was so perfect for each other.
