Few people believe in the story of Cinderella. Modern girls do not expect mercy from the prince, but make their own destiny. They believe that talent and hard work can make a world-class star out of a simple girl. Eva Longoria, the "hottest" of desperate housewives, was able to prove this.

Having received a bachelor's degree, Longoria did not work in the profession, but decided to fulfill her dream and become a model. However, due to her small stature, the girl (157 cm) failed to attract the attention of agencies.
Young Longoria is helped by her experience of participating in beauty and talent contests. Remembering him, she goes to Los Angeles in search of an agent who will help her become a star. And Eve finds such a person.
The hot blood of a Spanish ancestor and incredible hard work paid off, and Eva got her first walk-through role in the series "Beverly Hills". She is followed by another small role in the television series "General Hospital".
