The former duo dated briefly for a couple of months, but their bond was believed to be quite intense. Rodman once also admitted that Madonna had offered him $20 million to impregnate her. Incidentally, Madonna was also linked with Phoenix Suns legend Charles Barkley after a bold comment during an interview in 1993.

The rumors about Madonna being involved with Charles Barkley spread like fire after the Suns legend took a woman to his favorite restaurant in May 1993. However, Madonna ended up making a shocking comment that paved the way for more speculations about her and Barkley’s rumored relationship.

Madonna’s bold infidelity comment sparked Charles Barkley rumors

In a recent GQ interview, Barkley’s favorite restaurant Tomaso’s manager Tony Hamati gave an insight into how he got to meet with Madonna. The renowned chef revealed that Charles Barkley introduced him to Madonna at his restaurant in May 1993. After the dinner, several media outlets offered Hamati thousands of dollars to talk about Madonna and Barkley’s visit to his restaurant on TV. But the manager denied all such requests.

However, media outlets started to dig deeper into Madonna’s rumored relationship with Barkley after a comment during an interview. During the Q&A round with the Mademoiselle magazine, Madonna asked her friend and co-star Rosie O’Donnell who would she pick between Denzel Washington, Damon Wayans, and Charles Barkley to father her child. After choosing Wayans for being the funniest and cutest, O’Donnell turned the same question back to Madonna.
