Why would you do this, A-Rod? Why?

What in the world made Alex Rodriguez think this photo spread was a good idea? Maybe his reflection in the mirror talked him into it:

Attached to the strange picture is a pretty good story by magazine writer Jason Gay, who has written for Rolling Stone, GQ, etc., and whose last name fits very well with Details' design and audience.

I thought Details was a poor man's GQ, not a gay man's gay GQ.
 
Current editor has acknowledged gay males comprise a significant segment of the book's audience. If Details had to rely on its straight clientele alone, they'd be in dire straits.
 
We always make fun of one of my friends for getting it still, as the next woman on the cover of Details will be the first. (The next smoldering cover of Tom Cruise or Zac Efron will be the 100th!)

Not that there's anything wrong with that! (seriously, i was making a joke)

That being said, this also appears to be from the new issue, a story about two identical twin gay porn stars.

It was the only thing there.
 
I don't care how rich, good looking or talented you are.. PR tip No. 1 is to NOT pose kissing your own reflection.

I love me some A-Rod, but that picture makes me want to hide my eyes.

How far below his waist is that left hand? Is the second thought that comes to mind. ..

The story does mention A-Rod drinking Patron to loosen him up during the shoot. Maybe they got him drunk.
 
I thought Details was pretty well known as a gayer GQ. That said, how much of a narcissist do you have to be to take that?

He was just drying off his bat, again.

I can't find the clip, but when I do, it will be golden.

I thought that wasn't a problem if you were gay.


It's the fault of that damn qwerty keyboard layout, I tells ya.

That's a pretty good capturing of A-Rod with his greatest love

If you watch the slide show in the link, you'll see that pretty much all of the pictures are him looking longingly at himself. It's really weird.
