Celebrities are not like you and me. They have crazy, jet-setting lives in which they do things like go to Dubai for the day, as Eva Longoria did recently. And as she told 'Late Night' (Weeknights., 12:30AM ET on NBC) host Jimmy Fallon, Dubai is one crazy place."It's like, fake, and it's like a baby Vegas." Now, we don't know if the streets in Dubai are actually paved with gold, but the ATMs there do dispense gold. Actual gold. Fallon held up a picture of Longoria standing next to a "Gold to Go" ATM. As she explained, "This ATM, you put money in, and it gives you a gold bar."
She was going to give it a whirl and take out her own gold bar but changed her mind when she discovered it would cost a whopping $2,000. That's a lot of chump change for what's basically a souvenir.

'Desperate Housewives' took home the award for Favorite TV Series at 'The 2011 ALMA Awards' (Fri., 8PM ET on NBC). The American Latino Media Arts Awards honors the Latino community, so it was no surprise that Eva Longoria spoke on behalf of the show after creator Marc Cherry.But the women did have a little bit of fun with it when Felicity Huffman chastised Longoria for not speaking in Spanish. She then proceeded to speak in Spanish, translating what Longoria was saying in English.
That said, while Felicity hung in there very well, she did start to struggle the further they went along. In the end, though, it was a very cute bit, shaking expectations and having a little bit of fun.

"I love producing, I love putting things together. We work with the writers to write the content, we book all of the presenters, we book the music, and so then I was like, we've got to get a comedian on this show. And so we got George, who was a natural fit, and it's so fun to play off of him. We're just really good friends."

Victoria Beckham may look like she has it all, but there was one thing she knew nothing about. Of course, it was more of a cultural thing, but Eva Longoria still rectified it, as she explained on 'Lopez Tonight' (Weeknights, 12AM ET on TBS).She threw Beckam a baby shower. "They don't do showers in England." To make matters worse, "she was really nervous because she's not a game person."

Eva Longoria Ensures No Wardrobe Malfunctions on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' (VIDEO)

After her wardrobe malfunction -- from David Letterman's point of view at least -- on 'Late Show,' Eva Longoria was especially careful with her dress on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' (weeknights, 12AM ET on ABC). While Jimmy Kimmel understood, he was none too pleased about it."Thanks for nothing," he said. "For me you cover up."
Longoria then talked about the strange turnaround that her career has had on her personal life. Thirteen or fourteen years ago, when she was just starting out in Hollywood, she used to crash on friends' couches. Now that she's successful, two of those same friends are living with her, though we're a little suspicious of the names Longoria gave.
How Not to Ask Eva Longoria for a Date (VIDEO)
by Nick Zaino, posted Apr 11th 2011 5:30PM
Eva Longoria in (somewhat) newly single, having filed for divorce last year. On today's 'Rachael Ray' (weekdays, syndicated), Longoria spoke of the awkwardness of dating as a celebrity, and gave a hint about how not to approach her if you happen to see her and would like to ask for a date. She is not terribly approachable just "on the street," she said, at least for amorous advances. She's fine with her fans.So here's the "don't": Longoria has been making appearances to support 'Eva's Kitchen,' her new cookbook. This is not the best opportunity for a cheesy pick-up line. "There's so many guys who are like, 'I'm gonna cook out of your book so you can come over' and I'm like, 'Aaaagh!'" she said. "Gimme the book back!"
So, not only will that approach earn you a rejection, Longoria will make a loud, unpleasant noise, and you may also lose your book. She mostly meets people through her friends. So the best plan is to meet and make friends with one of her friends first. Good luck.

At least according to David Letterman on 'Late Show' (Weeknights, 11:35PM ET on CBS).Not helping matters was a possible wardrobe malfunction with the suit jacket she was wearing with nothing underneath. But even before that Letterman was so distracted he could barely talk.
"We're gonna lose our liquor license," he said after the near-incident. "I know it."

Actress Eva Longoria has been on seven seasons of 'Desperate Housewives' -- and she's planning on returning for an eighth.
