Eva Longoria is TCA Tempting

Eva Longoria is TCA Tempting

Eva Longoria answers questions during the ABC portion of the Television Critics Association Press Tour held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Thursday in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The 33-year-old Desperate Housewives actress explained why she had to gain weight and chopped off her long hair for her character Gabrielle Solis.

Said Eva, “[Creator Marc Cherry] told me last year before the season finale that we wanted her to have the mom haircut, and that she has let herself go because Carlos is blind, she’s had two kids, and she’s just really kind of let go of that vanity. We brainstormed with hair and makeup and wardrobe, and I cut my hair because I didn’t want to wear a wig once he told me how long it was going to last. So yeah, [it’s] butt pads, stomach pads, boob pads,” Eva said. “I love it, because I come to hair and makeup now and it’s 10 minutes instead of two hours. I wake up and go straight to set.”

Spanish women are not white women? First news. Then I, being blonde, pale and blue eyed, as my mother and great grandmother, must come from another planet.
The problem in many cases is not skin, is overweight or not caring about ones look. Darker skins grows old better than lighter skin of both exposed to the same amount of sun.
But many women look older because they have kids very young and become full time mums, not caring about how they look (saying that I don’t mean it happens in all cases, but there is a tendency to that). In South America generally women have kids at a very young age, maybe not the new generations, but tradicionally yes.
The rule is that the less developed one country is, the younger the mums are. In USA the inmigrants coming from poorer countries are mostly latins, which means you’ll likely find latin women looking older. In Europe is in reverse, and the older looking women are coming from east Europe, with very light skin.
In Eva Longoria’s case of course she looks young: she is young, has the money and the time to look young. She has a beautiful skin, a skin all the spray tanned celebrities would kill for. I’m not a fan of her acting career though.

# 26 That’s correct. I’m sorry, of course Spanish and Italian women are white. I got carried away by the rhetorics of the posts written above. What I meant was women with lighter skin. The assumption that heavier women look older is a cultural construct, though. It is how we grew up what we learned to find beautiful that determines our perception. This has not necessarily anything to do with the aging of skin. And being a young mother doesn’t make you look older per se. It is the circumstances in which you live that have a decisive impact.

white, latina, Spanish, or what ever she is: this woman is ugly and looks old.

Is it just me or is Eva saying that she needs 2 hours to be beautiful, but just 10 minutes are needed for her to be ugly ?

I have this haircut-I am not a mom-or with 2 kids….what the F ever.

DO YOU NOT READ, PEOPLE??!!

“The 33-year-old Desperate Housewives actress explained why she had to gain weight and chopped off her long hair for her character Gabrielle Solis. ”

That’s why she looks so bad.

i think if she do it wavy it will be very nice better than straight

I like the haircut, it’s cute.

I thought that hairstyle looked like Mom hair when I first saw pics of it. The style looks much better in these pics.

I’m not to much of a fan of the hair color.

So it took two hours of makeup before now down to 10 minutes? What takes so long I wonder?

I am an Eva fan BTW she has great style.

Peace

Writers…I hate the 5 years forward thing. Why do this??? You kept us from experiencing some major times in their lives! PLEASE GIVE US OUR GABBY BACK!!!!!!! I wanted to see her tackle motherhood in the same poise and fashion sense that made her famous. I loved the way her character made me laugh, now it’s so pathetic. (By the way, how did she have kids when previous seasons they said she never could?) You have ruined the balance of characters on the show, already had a stressed out mom…Lynette. Why do need another on the show?? (Where are Lynette’s other kids??) Also, you should have let Mike and Susan be happy, why couldn’t we have one season where they really support each other?

Also, what is up with Lynette’s hair? If she beat cancer over 5 years ago, why hasn’t her hair grown back? Get rid of that awful wig…she is beautiful lady who now looks freaky cause of that stupid wig!

She look like Victoria Beckham with that hair. Thats NOT a compliment!!!

Eva is always beautiful, long hair, short hair, She is always THE Best !
I like her very much, she is my inspiration, my model when I think about clothes, hairs, shoes….
