Eva Longoria

She is neither a typical housewife, nor is she desperate -- in real life. Eva Longoria's lavish 2007 nuptials to San Antonio Spur and Frenchman Tony Parker (her second husband) were anything but suburban. Like any self respecting Texan girl, the glam Latina from Corpus Christi (born March 15, 1975), tried her hand at the pageant circuit before landing spots on TV. Her first role was that of a flight attendant on Beverly Hills 90210 in 2000, and other small parts followed. Then came the smash ABC hit Desperate Housewives in 2004 -- when paparazzi started to give a sh*t. Apparently Eva did too, and conspired in 2008 with close friend and actor/dancer/host Mario Lopez to fool the camera-snapping celebrity gluttons into thinking she was cheating on Tony for the E! show Pop Fiction.

Here are some more fun facts:

• She married basketball player Tony Parker on 07/07/07.

• She has three sisters, all of whom have light hair, eyes, and skin. She is the only one who has dark features. As a child, Eva thought she was adopted.

• She founded Eva's Heroes, which is a charity that helps developmentally disabled children. She is also the national spokesperson for PADRES Contra El Cancer.

• She was in the #1 spot in Maxim's Hottest Female Stars for two consecutive years (2005 and 2006)

• She owns a restaurant in Hollywood called Beso, with celebrity chef Todd English.
