Us magazine, on the newstands today, reports on Jose Canseco’s claims that Madonna hit on him too. Canseco claims that Madonna wanted him to father a child for her. Canseco was married at the time.
Canseco also said in the Us magazine interview that he “hates A-Rod’s guts” because A-Rod hit on his wife.
Us: What can you tell us about your relationship with Madonna?
Jose Canseco: Well it’s in the book. We were not intimate.
Us: She was interested but you were not, correct?
JC: No, I was married at the time. I was interested in my wife.
Us: Where did she approach you? Where was the first time you met? How did it happen?
JC: At her house I think it was in the Hollywood Hills. Our people set it up. Her people approached me saying she was interested in meeting me.
Us: What did they say was the reason?
JC: She wanted to get married and have a child with me. [note from ed: Lourdes was born in 1996]
Us: That was her intention to have a child with you?
JC: Yeah, I’m Cuban and she wanted a Cuban child.
Us: And she barely knew you at this point.
JC: She didn’t.
Us: So she was interested in your genes.
JC: Yeah, I’m Cuban 6-foot-3, athletic, built.
Us: At that first meeting at the Hollywood Hills, what happened? How was she?
JC: She brought me up to her room and turned on Truth or Dare and showed me the masturbation scene and asked me what I thought about it.
Us: What did you say?
JC: I didn’t really know what to say. You have to remember I was very young at the time and I was very intimidated.
Us: Then what happened?
JC: We went downstairs and she came over and said ‘what would you do if I kissed you?’ and then sat on my lap and kissed me.
Us: So you did kiss?
JC: We did. But I then told her I was trying to work things out with my wife. That if I left her I would lose a lot of money and she said, ‘I have lots of money. Don’t worry about that’. I had to leave at that point so I got up and left.
Us: And what was the next communication or interaction?
JC: Our people would talk to try and set things up. She would call me at the club house, her code name was ‘Melissa’.
Us: What would you talk about on the phone?
JC: Mainly just about plans, when we would get together next.
Us: So it was all business? Very formal?
JC: Yes.
Us: You never really talked about other things? Got to know each other?
JC: No.
Us: When was the next time you met up?
JC: At her apartment in New York.
Us: The one she still lives in?
JC: Yes.
Us: Did you come in through the garage? Try to be secretive?
JC: No, I just walked in the front. When I came in there were a few paparazzi there and when I came out there were tons. It was in the paper the next day.
Us: How did she react to that? Did she love it? Was she annoyed? Indifferent?
JC: Indifferent. Like she was used to it. She was like, ‘yeah, it’s in the papers’.
Us: Do you think that part of the attraction was that you were intimidated or that you were married?
JC: No, I think it was that I am Cuban and tall and a big athlete.
Us: So she was very interested in making a attractive, talented child?
JC: Yes.
Us: So you were never intimate, how long did this communication last?
JC: A few months. Three or four.
Us: When and why did it end?
JC: I was taking a boat over to her place. I lived across the river from her and there was a helicopter following me on my boat. I waited it out and I couldn’t lose the helicopter. So I called her and told her I wasn’t coming.
Us: How did she react?
JC: Fine.
Us: She didn’t freak out?
JC: No.
Us: How did she react about you not wanting to have a child with her?
JC: Fine.
Us: She wasn’t at all bothered?
JC: I think she thought she could persuade me or seduce me over time.
