Longoria shines a light on others

Eva Longoria never wants to outshine lesser stars than herself on the red carpet, because she remembers how embarrassing it was when photographers used to ignore her as an up-and-coming star.

Eva Longoria never wants to outshine lesser stars than herself on the red carpet, because she remembers how embarrassing it was when photographers used to ignore her as an up-and-coming star.

The Desperate Housewives actress often guides snappers away from herself in a bid to let everyone get their share of the limelight.

She says: "I feel really bad sometimes because if there's a newcomer on the red carpet and I get out of the car, the photographers are all shouting, 'Eva!'

"And I'm saying, 'No, there's somebody else there. Take her picture.'

"I know how it feels. I used to be that person being ignored on the red carpet, when the photographers would all surround Jennifer Lopez or Johnny Depp!"
