Eva Longoria's hubby plays her hairdresser!

New Delhi, July 21 : American actress Eva Longoria has credited her basketball star husband Tony Parker for her new short haircut, as he was the one who cut it for her.

Longoria revealed that her role as Gabrielle Solis, on the hit US TV show 'Desperate Housewives', required her to cut her hair for the role, and she said no one was more thrilled by the news than Parker.

"Tony cut my hair. Well, my hairdresser Ken Paves fixed it. Tony has been wanting me to cut my hair. Ken came over and set it up for Tony and said, 'You do the first cut. 'So Tony cut about half of it and then Ken fixed it," China Daily quoted her as saying.

The 33-year-old actress also revealed that she is thrilled her character is turning into a housewife, as the new season of the show flashes to five years in the future, which also meant that she could have a break from her strict diet and exercise regime.

"I love it. I come into hair and make up now and it's ten minutes instead of two hours. It's way more fun to play frumpy. Then you can focus on story and character as opposed to having to always look great. I feel like she's dealing with a lot of real issues," she added to America's OK! magazine.
