NPC Competitor Alicia Marie Linked to Baseball Star

Alicia Marie is preparing to compete at the NPC USA Figure contest, which will be held in a couple of weeks. She recently signed with one of the top supplement companies, BSN, where she has her own blog. Her lastest entry reads, “I am spending my “down” time LOL (what’s that???) writing for Oxygen (yay!) and reading up on my training for post-season. Very excited as I will be planning to compete in a triathlon in the summer of ’09.”

Recently, Alicia has been making news away from the fitness scene. Alex Rodriguez is one of the top professional baseball players and has caused a great deal of buzz after his wife slapped him with divorce papers. He’s been reportedly linked to Madonna and now fitness model Alicia Marie. The New York Daily News put her on the cover of their July 9th issue with the headline, “A-Rod’s Gal Pals”.

Some say she’s trying to further her own career by attaching herself to the A-Rod media frenzy. Others would disagree and may be jealous of her connection to the famous baseball player. Alicia is no stranger to being linked to professional athletes who create media attention. She’s dated the controversial baseball pitcher John Rocker. Earlier in the year she made a guest appearance in Boise, Idaho for the Bodybuilding.com Fitness Expo where she represented BSN.

Will all the newfound media blitz distract her from being at her best at the NPC USAs in Las Vegas? We’ll have to wait and see. I contacted Alicia to get her side of the story but the requests have not yet been returned.
