About
Eva Longoria

|
| Latina starlet Eva Longoria is
almost as well known for her risqué sense of style as she is for her role as
the oversexed nymph on the aforementioned ABC hit. After relatively brief
appearances on The Young and the Restless and L.A. Dragnet (the modern
remake of the classic drama), Eva scored big as sexy Gabrielle Solis on
ABC's Desperate Housewives. The prime-time soap opera-style series rocketed
to the top of the ratings, and those who had never seen Eva before began
taking notice. A "hot new face" according to USA Today, Variety and TV
Guide, Longoria is one of the finest women to have made it to the top in
2004. "I'm a late
bloomer, my looks came pretty late and success happened at the age of 30.
But I'm pleased about things not coming to me immediately because it makes
you appreciate it when you finally get it" : Eva Longoria |

Eva Longoria's Birthday |
Born
on March 15, 1975, in Corpus Christi, Texas, Eva Jacqueline Longoria is the
youngest of four sisters. As surprising as this may seem, Eva was considered
the "ugly duckling" of her family -- her siblings would tease her because
she was the only one with dark eyes, dark hair and dark skin.
Growing up on a ranch in the southeastern Texas city, Eva was drawn to
acting but kept up her studies throughout high school. Following graduation,
she attended Texas A&M University-Kingsville and earned her Bachelor of
Science in kinesiology.

the role of Isabella on the popular series, The Young and the Restless.
After the Y&R, Eva Longoria became well known worldwide thanks to Desperate
Housewives where she plays adulteress Gabrielle Solis. She also has a
contract with L'Oreal and has been named one of the most beautiful people.

| Beyonce and Eva Longoria Make Lesbian
Love in Tipping the Velvet |
|
|
According to
The New York Daily News, Eva Longoria and Beyonce Knowles are in talks
to star in a movie version of the classic 19th century story of lesbian
love, Tipping the Velvet.
Booty fruity! R&B goddess Beyoncé
Knowles and sultry "Desperate Housewives" star Eva Longoria are set to
lock lips and hips in a big-screen lesbian love story.
The gorgeous pair are in talks to make "Tipping the Velvet," based on
Sarah Waters' graphically saucy Victorian tale of a love affair between
an 1890s dance hall star and an oyster-shucking fishmonger's daughter.
"We've had 'Brokeback
Mountain,' so the time is right for this divine novel to get the same
treatment," the 25-year-old Knowles said at a New York benefit for
ovarian cancer.
The
sexy Longoria, 31, is also enthusiastic about the Sofia Coppola-helmed
project.
"Yes, it's true. We are
talking about doing the movie together," she said. "It's such a
wonderful novel, a beautiful love story." |

Eva Longoria is Glamorous |
Yes,
that's Eva Longoria. Out in public. Wearing slippers. She really makes
you believe in the magic of Hollywood doesn't she? Well, actually, she
should, because if you haven't yet figured out that the magic of
Hollywood is really just heavy makeup, soft lenses and tons of
Photoshop, where the hell have you been living?
And sure, celebrities are entitled to go out in their pajamas to get a
cup of coffee without having to put on makeup. It's just that they
shouldn't. Oh, and a little wax on the upper lip wouldn't hurt either. |
| Eva Longoria is Single |
|
The
big news, however, is that Eva Longoria is once again single, and it looks
like things didn't end well with her and San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony
Parker. According to People, the couple split amicably, but if you're
reading Page Six, you'll hear a very different story.
Eva Longoria and her man of two years, Tony Parker, are on the rocks after
Page Six broke the news to the "Desperate Housewives" star this week that
Parker was dirty dancing and cuddling with a tall blonde at Marquee during
"The Departed" premiere after-party. Parker was even foolish enough to seem
to be cheating on luscious Longoria in full view of Leonardo DiCaprio, Bono,
The Edge and Mick Jagger - and, of course, our spies.

Eva Longoria Costs More Than Jessica Biel |
According to Yahoo! News, someone spent $100,000 for one night with Eva
Longoria.
If you had $100,000 to spend on Wednesday night, you could have been the
lucky bidder to win a date with hostess Eva Longoria at the Tampico
Beverages El Sueno de Esperanza "Dream of Hope" Gala held to benefit the
PADRES Contra El Cancer. That prized auction item went to the president of
fashion house Bebe, as supporters of the organization to aid Latino children
with cancer gathered on Wisteria Lane at Universal Studios for their annual
fundraiser.
Longoria, who attended the night's festivities without NBA star Tony Parker,
her long-time boyfriend and usual companion, couldn't help but giggle when
her auction item went for so much money.
