Eva Longoria: Life's Too Short to Work with People I Don't Enjoy

Originally posted 09/13/2012 12:15PM

Eva Longoria has worked with a lot of big stars – and experience has made her picky about who she collaborates with in Hollywood.

"Life's so short," the actress, 37, told PEOPLE Monday. "You should be surrounded by people who make each other better people."

One of her favorite folks to work with, she says, is George Lopez, 51, who happens to be her co-host at the Latin community's ALMA Awards, airing Sept. 21.

"We're in a stage in our lives where we've done a lot in our careers and we work with people we want to work with," the former Desperate Housewives star says of herself and Lopez.

Eva Longoria & Eduardo Cruz Meet Up for a (Very) Brief Lunch

Originally posted 08/02/2012 06:00AM

On and off since their initial split in March, Eva Longoria and Eduardo Cruz recently stopped by Zuma Miami, where they met up for a brief lunch.

But the rocky pair seemed anything but lovey-dovey during the outing.

"They had little to no interaction at all with each other," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "The lunch was far from romantic."

But still, they managed to share their dishes, which included yellowtail sashimi, a spicy yellowtail roll, shiitake mushroom and sea bass sashimi.

Her relationship with Cruz aside, the source says Longoria, who kept her sunglasses on the whole time, was "very cordial to the staff."

Desperate Housewives: Five Memorable Moments

Originally posted 05/14/2012 07:00AM

Desperate Housewives, ABC's groundbreaking dramedy, came to a close Sunday night after eight breezily entertaining seasons full of gossip, backstabbing, friendships and frenemy-ships, and many, many instances of rigor mortis setting in. Here are five of Wisteria Lane's most treasured snapshots – but do add your fondest memories in the comments below:

The mystery of Mary Alice, season 1, Oct. 3, 2004: The series hooked me right from its opener: Wisteria Street resident Mary Alice Williams (Brenda Strong), the show's narrator, tells us in a soothing, almost sunny tone how one day she reached into the top of her closet, took down a revolver and shot herself dead. Even though the mystery of her suicide was eventually solved, Mary Alice has remained the voice of the show ever since, commenting with compassion and sometimes rather heavy irony on the adventures of Susan, Bree, Lynette and Gabrielle. I would have gone for a cheap stunt and had the occasional guest narrator – Joy Behar, for instance – but Mary Alice's voice, even more than the tidy lawns and slickly painted houses, was always the real, unifying vision of Wisteria Lane.
