Eva Longoria

Before she was strolling down Wisteria Lane in four-inch heels as Gabrielle Solis, Eva Longoria played Isabella Brana on “The Young and the Restless.” The Texas native’s guest appearance on ABC’s “General Hospital” led to her big break to play Brana in 2001. Longoria stayed with the daytime show for two years before she landed the role as Solis on the successful show “Desperate Housewives.” Fun trivia fact: Longoria’s first husband is “General Hospital” star Tyler Christopher.
