RSVPs: Eva Longoria Parker, America Ferrera, Sheryl Crow
When: March 6
Where: Beso
Busy babe Eva Longoria Parker can add another gig to her resume: restaurateur. The Desperate Housewives actress and Bebe model is hosting the grand opening of her restaurant Beso tonight, and judging by the throngs of people and paparazzi outside, all of Hollywood wants in.
Outside on the red carpet, Eva's not afraid to brag about her culinary skills. "I can make a meal from anything. I can cook anything! My guacamole is pretty famous," she dishes. "My tortilla soup, which is on the menu, I really love."
Eva's husband, Tony Parker, is at a game tonight, which is just as well as it sounds like Eva's got him beat in the kitchen. "He only makes spaghetti!" she says.
Inside, Eva's made sure guests don't go hungry...or thirsty. Hornitos tequila is flowing, and servers are passing trays of shrimp corn dogs, minipaellas with lobster sauce and beef skewers. Almost all of Eva's castmates are here. Nicollette Sheridan hangs with Michael Bolton, and Dana Delany shares a booth with Kyle MacLachlan while Felicity Huffman tells hubby William H. Macy the place is "fantastic." But where's Teri Hatcher? Hmmm.
As Felicity makes her way out of the restaurant, photogs confuse her with another Desperate Housewife. "Nicollette, Nicollette!" they yell at her. "I'm not Nicollette, but thanks for thinking I could be," she deadpans.
On the patio outside, Eva's puffing on cigarettes with Ken Paves. Who knew she was a smoker? Maybe she was just nervous on her big night. Next time, try deep breaths, doll. It's much easier on your lungs—and your looks.
