Happy Birthday Tony Parker!

Tony Parker has been celebrating his 28th birthday for two weeks in three cities, and his wife Eva Longoria Parker is still not done showering him with gifts.

"I got him a lot of things," Eva Longoria-Parker said Saturday before celebrating her husband’s birthday at Las Vegas’s Eve Nightclub. "I got him four-wheelers because he wanted a new four-wheeler, and I got him a Microsoft surface computer that he can touch and play with."

The gift-giving will only continue, with one present still to open.

"I can’t wait to see the surprise," Parker immediately said. "I don’t have a birthday wish list. Whatever she gives me I’m fine with it. I’m happy."

The couple have been celebrating Parker’s birthday for two weeks in Miami, Los Angeles and Vegas, but Saturday was his big blowout.

Felicity Huffman Named Ambassador For Lee National Denim Day

Since it began in 1996, Lee National Denim Day has raised over $80 million to fund breast cancer research and support programs for patients and survivors of the disease. Each Denim Day, Americans across the country wear jeans to express solidarity in the fight against breast cancer and make donations to support the Entertainment Industry Foundation's Women's Cancer Programs.

This year, actress Felicity Huffman is joining the campaign as the official 2010 Ambassador. Huffman is best known for her role portraying a character struggling to overcome breast cancer on the popular television show "Desperate Housewives."

While Denim Day isn't until October 8, supporters are encouraged to register online now to pledge to be a part of the nationwide event. Denim Day teams can be made up of friends, co-workers or other groups and can fundraise in a variety of different ways. All of the funds raised will go towards EIF's work to find new methods for early detection of breast cancer and more effective, less toxic treatment options.

Felicity looks stunning in the promotional ad. Absolutely gorgeous. I couldn't think of a better person to be named Ambassador for Lee National Denim Day. I think that a lot of housewives out there can relate to Felicity's character Lynette Scavo on Desperate Housewives.

Marcia Cross & Her Santa Monica Sweeties

Marcia Cross and her husband Tom Mahoney ran some errands with their 3-year-old twin daughters EdenSavannah in Santa Monica on Thursday (May 20).  (striped top) and

The family-of-four stopped at an Albertsons and bought Toy Story Band-Aids and Dora the Explorer toothpaste.

Marcia is currently on summer holidays and will return to the set of Desperate Housewives in July as the fabulous Bree Van de Kamp.

Marcia is looking really thin lately. I also find it interesting how her hubby is the only one that's dressed up. It does look a little odd to me. 

Can't wait for season 7 to start and see what Bree's up to next. Will she get her company back to Sam and how is she going to cope with Orson leaving her.

Kyle MacLachlan to exit Desperate Housewives

Bye Bye Orson!

Wisteria Lane is about to lose another longtime resident: Kyle MacLachlan is leaving Desperate Housewives after four years of playing Orson Hodge, sources confirm to me exclusively.

Exit rumors have swirled around the woefully underused MacLachlan for the better part of the past two years. Speculation picked up again after Sunday’s season finale, during which Orson — disappointed that Bree would allow herself to be blackmailed by Sam — abruptly moved out.

I’m told MacLachlan will likely return for an episode or two next fall to tie up the Orson/Bree story.

MacLachlan’s decampment brings to three the number of series regulars coming off the Housewives payroll. He joins the dearly departed Drea de Matteo and Dana Delany.

Thoughts? Is this something that should have happened two years ago when Orson started to drift onto the back burner? Will the return of Mark Moses and the recent addition of Vanessa Williams more than fill the void? Sound off below!

I'm so glad that Kyle is finally leaving Desperate Housewives. I felt that his storyline with Bree has been dragging on forever! He should have left ages ago. I'm also glad that Dana is gone as well. I was never crazy about Katherine. So am I worried that they both left? NO! Desperate Housewives can and will continue without them! Can't wait to see what Vanessa Williams is going to add to the mix?

Vanessa Williams Joins Desperate Housewives!

Source: Pop Watch

Kudos to ABC for the smartest move of the yet-to-be-hatched 2010-2011 TV season. Nope, I’m not talking about picking up The New Adventures of Old Christine from CBS — hasn’t happened yet, and probably won’t, according to Ausiello — but rather for adding Vanessa Williams (multiple Emmy nominee for the network’s recently departed Ugly Betty) to the cast of Desperate Housewives. “ABC is infinitely smart to keep her in the fold,” my colleague Tanner Stransky (EW’s resident Housewives recapper) emailed me. “They’re awesome about keeping talent they like around.”

Smarter still, the addition of the delectable Ms. Williams breathes instant buzz into a show that, six seasons in, has settled into the role of comfortable Sunday night companion, but ranks pretty low on the water-cooler flow chart. Now, of course, the question arises: What kind of role do we want to see Williams play? And how do we make sure she avoids getting Alfre’d (the syndrome that befell Alfre Woodard, Dana Delany, and Drea de Matteo — high-profile Housewives additions whose roles started strong and eventually turned to little more than suburban lawn mulch)?

Here’s my suggestion: As much as I want Williams to bring the patented bitchery of Ugly Betty‘s Wilhemina Slater to Wisteria Lane — can you imagine the high comedy of seeing Willie take a golden parachute from the Meades and land smack in suburbia? — an actress of her caliber probably isn’t interested in getting typecast. So how about casting Williams as a big-shot financial planner who moves from Wall Street to join Carlos’ firm, then lures her neighbors into unwittingly investing in a Ponzi scheme that brings them all to the brink of financial ruin? Williams’ housewife could be frenemies with Gaby, forge an instant working-girl connection with Bree, and perhaps activate Lynette’s competitive side when she realizes she’s not necessarily the fiercest businesswoman on the block. 

Plus, the role wouldn’t waste Williams’ talents at rocking outrageous couture. And naturally, Williams’ character would carry on a torrid affair with Mike Delfino –’cause it’s time the most boring household in Fairview got rocked by something harder than unpaid plumbing bills.

What think you, Housewives fans? Does the addition of Williams make you more interested in ABC’s aging soap? And how exactly would you cast the newcomer? Sounds off in the comments below!

It's no longer a rumour! Vanessa Williams will be moving into Wisteria Lane in season 7's Desperate Housewives. We wonder how Marc Cherry is planning to add Williams to the cast. Is she going to have a deep dark secret as other residents do or is she going to be a villain? or another Edie? Let me know what you think by leaving your comments below.
