Kate Hudson helped her baseball star beau Alex Rodriguez celebrate the New York Yankees’ championship win on Wednesday night by partying with his family.

The actress joined celebrities including her mother Goldie Hawn’s longtime partner Kurt Russell, director Spike Lee, real estate mogul Donald Trump and R&B superstar Mary J. Blige, who sang the National Anthem before the game, at Yankees Stadium to cheer the team to victory.

Hudson proved to be Rodriguez’s lucky charm as the all-star team cruised to a 7-3 win against the Philadelphia Phillies, landing them their 27th World Series.

The Almost Famous star joined the victory party at Manhattan hotspot 1Oak, where she danced the night away with the Yankees, as well as Rodriguez’s mum, Lourdes, and his sister, Suzy.

The new Us Weekly reports that Kate Hudson has been trying to make New York Yankee Alex Rodriguez less of an egomaniac.

It must not be easy.

A former Rodriguez fling remembers seeing portraits of the slugger, 34, as a centaur hanging over his bed.

“He was so vain,” his ex tells Us Weekly. “He had not one, but two painted portraits of himself as a centaur. You know, the half man, half horse figure?”

Adds the ex, “It was ridiculous.”

Us Weekly also reports that Hudson, 30 — who has been front and center at his baseball games since they began dating this past spring — has been bragging to pals about what a good lover Rodriguez is.

“They love sex!” a pal tells Us Weekly of the pair who began dating in May. “They talk about it all day. Kate gets graphic talking about his body, even to her parents.”

In case there was any doubt, Kate Hudson is making it clear that she and Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez are officially an item, Life & Style has learned. On July 19, the couple dined with friends at seafood haven Lure in New York City, and Kate revealed to the table that Madonna’s ex is now her boyfriend.

“Kate kept saying things like, ‘My boyfriend this, my boyfriend that,’ when referring to Alex,” an insider tells Life & Style. “She was talking about him even though he was right there. I think the people they were with are Alex’s friends, because Alex and the others were already there when Kate showed up around 10:30 p.m. A-Rod and his guests had gotten there closer to 9:45.”

The couple have been dating for about two months. In June, Kate was seen at a New York Yankees home game rooting for Alex, and earlier this month, the duo were spotted dining together in New York. Soon after, they spent time with Kate’s 5-year-old son, Ryder, at The Resort at Pelican Hill in Newport Beach, Calif.

“They were really cute and cuddly together,” adds the insider. “You can tell Kate really likes him. They were whispering to one another, just acting like lovers!”

Yankee slugger Alex Rodriguez sat down with DETAILS magazine just hours before the steroids scandal broke wide open. Despite being confronted by SI about steroids, what was the biggest concern on A-Rod’s mind? A Madonna song he mentioned to our writer, Jason Gay. DETAILS plunges into the psyche of A-Rod as the scandal of a lifetime was about to be revealed and what he must do to recover.

“We live in a world right now where everyone’s keeping score. And it doesn’t stop when the games end…They’ve crossed over. And you have the Internet stuff, and all these phones…It’s very intense.”

“New York is one of a kind. It’s made me ask all the tough questions. It’s brought out the best in me. There are some things I have to work on. And that part is fun. Revealing the truth about yourself is always good.”

On Madonna: “Well, we’re friends…I have a lot of respect for her…She’s very smart and she’s passionate about everything she does…if there ever was any situation, she’s a great ear to have, you know?”

Madonna and Alex Rodriguez were both spotted in Mexico City last weekend.

The two have not confirmed their romance. But they reportedly had their public “coming out” Nov. 26, when, according to E!, the Yankees third baseman handed Madonna a water bottle during her Miami concert.

They also apparently met up on Thanksgiving, after Rodriguez fulfilled his family obligations.

When asked what he thought about being in the capital city the same time as his rumored paramour, the baseball star would only say it was “very good,” the Associated Press reports.

The 50-year-old Madonna – whose divorce from Guy Ritchie was finalized just days ago – was in town to perform a pair of concerts on her “Sticky & Sweet” tour. Rodriguez, meanwhile, was invited to inaugurate a new sports complex in the city, and spent two hours on Sunday teaching kids to bat.

“It’s a pleasure to talk about baseball, to talk about the importance of keeping children off the streets, out of drugs and out of all the bad things that there are in this life,” the 33-year-old said in Spanish.
