Eva Longoria upstages fellow housewives

Wednesday, August 27th, 2008

There is good news for ‘Desperate Housewives’ fans. In a promotional photoshoot for the show, Eva Longoria upstaged her fellow houswives with a show stopping gold dress, with a plunging neckline and cut to the thigh. Co-star Teri Hatcher also looked sensational in virginal white, while Nicolette Sheridan posed in purple and Felicity Huffman was ravishing and feminine in green.

But if sources are to be believed, Eva’s role as the sexy Gabrielle Solis in the fifth season won’t be quite so glamorous. The actress may have opted for a provocative look in the ads, but she is destined for a more modest style in the new series.

The fifth season of ‘Desperate Housewives’ picks up in the year 2013, where Eva’s character Gabrielle has acquired two children and a few extra pounds. The other good news is that the uber sexy Nicolette Sheridan, who plays Edie Brit will be making a comeback to the show with a new man, Boomtown’s Neal McDonough.

Creator Marc Cherry, who promises more mystery involving new neighbours, said: “The flash-forward was my way of hitting the reset button on the show.

Check out who made the Emmys shortlist for Best Comedy Actress!

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

The Emmys shortlists keep trickling in over at the swashbuckling Gold Derby — here are the 10 baked hams in the running for America’s Next Top Comedy Actress:

• Christina Applegate, Samantha Who? (”The Restraining Order”)
• Marcia Cross, Desperate Housewives (”Now You Know”)
• America Ferrera, Ugly Betty (”Odor in the Court”)
• Tina Fey, 30 Rock (”Sandwich Day”)
• Anna Friel, Pushing Daisies (”Bitter Sweets”)
• Felicity Huffman, Desperate Housewives (”Now I Know, Don’t Be Scared”)
Eva Longoria Parker, Desperate Housewives (”In Buddy’s Eyes”)
• Julia Louis-Dreyfus, New Adventures of Old Christine (”One and a Half Men”)
• Mary-Louise Parker, Weeds (”Bill Sussman”)
• Sarah Silverman, The Sarah Silverman Program (”Bored of the Rings”)

Our selected image suggests we care that OMG TERI HATCHER WAS SNUBBED THIS YEAR. Not really. I’m of the opinion that to expect four actresses from the same not-always-hilarious series to get noms just because they’re equally overexposed off-screen and get relatively equal time on-screen, is ludicrous. (And anyhow, isn’t series newcomer Dana Delany’s omission the real shocker?) Anyhow, I’ll be surprised if Huffman, Longoria, and Cross all get nods in lieu of first-time potential nominees Applegate or Silverman, who carry their own shows. Rejoice or disapprove in the comments below, or if you just don’t know what to think about the shortlist and airport security simply refuses let you through with that attitude, follow the fine example in this clip!
