Evan Longoria of the Tampa Bay Rays still gets questioned about Desperate Housewives. He still gets asked about Tony Parker of the San Antonio Spurs. However, Evan Longoria (no relation to Eva Longoria) is quickly making a name for himself.
In his second season in the big leagues, Longoria might be the hottest hitter in the entire game. Against the Boston Red Sox on Saturday, he went 2-for-4 with a walk, three runs and five RBI. In the first inning, Longoria hit a two-run homer that put the Rays up for good. When the bashing was all done, the Rays had …read more

Or is it just crazy talk underscoring the Hollywood obsession with thinness nearly unachievable by mere mortals who don’t have access to personal trainers and high-end body treatments?
True, the super-duper-cutie pie and wife of San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker did pack on a few pounds for her role in Desperate Housewives:

This reminds us: We couldn’t help but notice how all-too-happy co-star Felicity Huffman was to blab about Eva’s fatness. (Yeah, she disguised it as a she-isn’t-preggers commentary but you can almost hear the suppressed glee nonetheless). 
But anyway, this is a picture dated just a few days ago—that is, in the midst …read more

In honor of the Opening Ceremonies of the Olympic Games in Beijing, we decided to award a few medals of our own. The event is Athlete-Celebrity Couples, and they will be judged on Hotness, Likability, and Endurance Potential (each category is worth 10 points; a perfect score would be 30 points).
In no particular order: 
Derek Jeter and Minka Kelly
Hotness: 9.7  Pretty boy + cutie pie=A darn respectable score. 
Likability: 9.0 She OK but hey, he’s a member of the New York Yankees. We’re Boston Red Sox fans. ‘Nuff said.
Endurance Potential: 4.6 Playboy boy + cutie pie=A good time had by all. For a few months anyway.

Last week we mentioned that Victoria Beckham turned 34. We posed 10 questions, one of which involved our curiosity as to whether the erstwhile Posh Spice smiled on her birthday. To that we can’t attest one way or the other, but we can certainly see by Exhibit A here that grins still aren’t a priority for David Beckham’s bustier half, seen here shopping yesterday:

We didn’t get invited to the birthday party (that’s 34 straight snubs, in case you were wondering), but MSN Hot Gossip’s rundown of the celebratory and celebrity-filled shindig reads like a Who’s Who in Hollywood: …read more

Not only did the Easter Bunny bring us Cadbury Mini-Eggs (yay!) and tasty Polish babka (way to bake it, Ma!), but he also slipped in a little blog foddah. What a guy.
As you know, this is a sports blog but we also dish on celebrities connected to the sports world, like Victoria Beckham and Eva Longoria. Imagine our delight to learn that Posh and Eva went shopping together recently. This means worlds are colliding . . . in a good way, not the George Costanza way, also known as the Worlds Collide Theory.
For a fleeting second we envisioned Victoria and Eva in a shoe store or designer’s boutique, perhaps …read more

If you think Eva Longoria doesn’t have a clue, you’d be wrong. She has the birthday party pictures to prove it.
Are you thinking, WTF? Hey, so was Eva!
OK, enough with the games. Well, not really, or else we wouldn’t be able to explain the theme for Eva’s birthday bash: the boardgame Clue.

Indeed, San Antonio Spurs star Tony Parker planned one heck of a party for his wife. (Sorry, Mike H. You may not want to read any further).

Eva Longoria, heartbreaker. 
Since we’re ‘Net pals with Mike from SteadyBurn, we feel compelled to let the world know that Tony Parker of the San Antonio Spurs is a dreamcrusher for at least one twentysomething guy.
Here’s why, complete with photos and amusing captions.
Would it be cruel of us to then link to this post about Eva’s “mystery” moments?
Maybe, but that’s the role of a sports humor blog.

Turning 9, for this bloggerette and her friends, involved balloons, cake, presents, sometimes bowling, occasionally a swimming pool, and once, behavior so rambunctious that one of of the mom’s excluded yours truly from the invitation list the following year.
Compare that to Brooklyn Beckham, fortunate offspring of David and Victoria Beckham. He blew out candles before the likes of Heidi Klum and Eva Longoria at the chic Pink Taco in Century City, CA. (Beck himself was traveling in Asia with the L.A. Galaxy–and doing an admirable good deed: visiting young leukemia patients).
Impressive. The closest we ever came to birthday celebrity encounters in …read more

From Eva Longoria’s lips to US Weekly’s ready ears comes the following no-need-to-elaborate quote on the looker’s domestic life with hubby and San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker. (Yours truly spotted this in the mag at the gym last night just before the tush-kicking personal trainer acted like we were in boot camp met with us for an hour.)
Anyhoo, quotes like this are the reason “TMI” came into the vocabulary of American pop culture: 
“We’re still in the honeymoon phase. I love him—but I don’t fart in front of him! I save it for myself. You have to keep the mystery.”
Nice thought. However, given that such sensual insight has been published in …read more

David Beckham is an easy guy to like. He’s a great athlete and he’s a do-gooder. He’s also hot and stylish. No wonder some chick fainted upon meeting him (and getting a Beck Peck on the cheek) last Sunday.
And if that weren’t enough, he’s got a romantic side, too. Perez Hilton reports that he surprised wife Victoria with a vow renewal ceremony at their U.K. digs. (No word as to whether or not she actually cracked a smile when he broke the good news.) The good times took place a couple of years ago but the “news” just leaked.
Family and …read more
