Live Like Longoria

Did you watch the season premiere of “Desperate Housewives” last night? I remember the first season the show was on the air. It didn’t take long for it to become one of the most popular series on television and subsequently skyrocket the actresses who play the “housewives” to international fame. The media hawks the women of Wisteria Lane on and off the set. By now I am sure you know that Marcia Cross (who plays uptight Bree Van De Camp) is not only a newlywed, in real life, but is also pregnant with twins; that months ago, Teri Hatcher (Susan … Continue reading →

Weighing in on Lightweights in Hollywood

Eva Longoria says she is fat, but there’s a reason. The “Desperate Housewives’” star is not expecting a baby, but her TV character has two kids and could be adding more in the future. Okay, I have to stop there. Are you rolling your eyes at the idea that the teeny tiny actress is being called out in the media about her new slightly fuller figure? If going from a size zero to a size one or two is getting “fat” then women around the world are in serious trouble. For those of you who don’t watch the popular ABC … Continue reading →

Celebrity REAL or RUMOR: Eva Pregnancy and R.E.M. Singer’s Jury Duty

No, Desperate Housewives’ Eva Longoria-Parker isn’t expecting a baby. Rather, she says she’s just bloated. Or at least she was when paparazzi snapped a shot of her that has been making the rounds on the Internet under the headline: “Eva’s Pregnant!” You’ve got to love a star who denies a pregnancy rumor by insisting that the little extra bulge around her belly is just extra helpings of home cooking and not evidence of impending motherhood. “I’ve been cooking and eating, cooking and eating. I keep telling everyone that I’ve gained 10 pounds just being on strike,” Longoria-Parker told a band … Continue reading →

Fashion Forward: Wedgie-Proof Underwear

Forget about Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger and Donna Karan, the hottest fashion designers on the block these days are 8-year-old twin boys. If you tuned into “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” last week you might be familiar with Justin and Jared Serovich’s fashion forward creation—-wedgie-proof underwear also known as the “Rip Away 1000.” The boys rigged boxer shorts and fabric fasteners to hold together some seams—and voila—instant protection from underwear grabbing bullies. “When the person tries to grab you and tries to give you a wedgie – they just rip away,” Justin explained to DeGeneres. The third graders say they came … Continue reading →

“Desperate Housewives” Controversial Dig On Filipinos Causes Ire

Do you remember the scene from Sunday’s season premiere of “Desperate Housewives” where Teri Hatcher’s character, Susan, goes in for a doctor’s appointment and is stunned when the gynecologist suggests she may be going through menopause? “Listen, Susan, I know for a lot of women the word ‘menopause’” has negative connotations. You hear ‘aging,’ ‘brittle bones,’ ‘loss of sexual desire,’” the doctor tells her. “OK, before we go any further, can I check these diplomas? Just to make sure they aren’t, like, from some med school in the Philippines?” Susan retorts. That exchange, which I’m sure show writers meant to … Continue reading →

Mr. Superstitious Weds

Here’s what I don’t get… it has been widely reported that San Antonio Spurs’ Tony Parker is so incredibly superstitious that he insisted that he and his new bride Eva Longoria be married on 7-7-07. Only, as it turns out the couple’s civil ceremony–the one that essentially legally sealed the deal for the two high profile stars–took place on July 6th in a stuffy chamber at Paris City Hall. It’s true; French law does require a civil ceremony even when couples marry in a church, but why not simply complete both on the same day if the date matters so … Continue reading →
