Eva Longoria has been a star guest on the red carpet for years. Her dress takes your breath away at Cannes, but the Hollywood heavyweight can be more than just beautiful.
She has been a regular on the Cannes red carpet for many years. She spoke to “Vogue France” two years ago about her fashion secrets and the magic of the festival. The extravagant clothing gives her self-confidence, the appearance and the person then match. “I think with my body when my clothes fit well. Then I feel very comfortable in my skin. I feel like I could conquer the world.”
Eva Longoria’s anecdotes
The actress revealed that everything had already happened to her in Cannes. “I fell on the red carpet, I accidentally wore a dress backwards on the red carpet, my clothes didn’t show up and my luggage got lost in Cannes, it rained in Cannes, everything.” She even lost her jewelry on the red carpet. “Luckily someone found him.”

Hot looks on the final weekend and great joy about the “Golden Palm” award
The actress remembers one anecdote in particular: “We used to do all the press work on the roof, and once during the lunch break it was so windy that the salad blew off my plate. Just completely wrong. I ate and it was gone and I thought, ‘What’s going on now?'”
Eva Longoria delivers “The Whole Package”
At that time, she called for more initiatives and programs to support female filmmakers. Longoria is a Hollywood heavyweight because she’s not just a star who performs. She directed and produced countless series and films. The best known are the series “Grand Hotel” and “Devious Maids – Dirty Secrets”. In the globally successful series about murder and maids, she delivered “the whole package” – idea, direction, production and leading role. Only a few actors manage to do that in an A-production.
Her mother is said to have never emphasized her beauty. “She always said, ‘You’re so smart, you’re so strong, you’re so independent.'” If her mother had her way, Eva Longoria would have become a lawyer. And that’s what “Emilia Perez” is all about – here Zoe Saldana plays a lawyer in Mexico who is supposed to help a cartel boss disappear forever – at the premiere of which the 49-year-old appeared on the red carpet in Cannes. Longoria’s brilliant performance draws attention to this film – an act of feminine solidarity.
