Unfortunately Desperate Housewives did not get an Emmy nomination in the Best Comedy Series category =( However, Felicity Huffman did receive a nod for Outstanding Actress in a Comedy Series!

All the Desperate Housewives ladies, apart from Marcia Cross who couldn’t leave her twin babies, attended Eva and Tony’s wedding in France. From left; Felicity Huffman, who brought along her husband (not pictured), Teri Hatcher and her daughter Emerson Rose, and Nicollette Sheridan.

Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry — a self-professed musical theatre fan — may bring his love to his current ABC gig with a musical episode.

The producer-creator of the ABC dramedy told Variety of his consideration of turning Wisteria Lane into the Great White Way.

Of his bevy of beauties — Teri Hatcher, Nicollette Sheridan, Felicity Huffman, Marcia Cross and Eva Longoria — only Hatcher has previously appeared on stage in a musical, the Cabaret national tour. Sheridan sang with her beau Michael Bolton on Bolton’s latest album. Huffman is a Broadway and Off-Broadway veteran — traditionally in non-musical fare, but sang in a play with music, The Joy of Going Somewhere Definite.

Cherry has previously asserted that he plans to head directly for the theatre once his television run with the series has completed. The former “The Golden Girls” writer has also nodded at musical theatre in the titles of his “Housewives” episodes, a great number of which reference shows or songs: “Pretty Little Picture,” “Anything You Can Do,” “The Ladies Who Lunch,” “Children Will Listen,” “Sunday in the Park with George,” “No One Is Alone,” “Not While I’m Around,” and “Into the Woods,” among others.

Eva Longoria has had four wedding shower parties – a family one in Texas, one thrown by the wives of basketball star fiance Tony Parker’s San Antonio Spurs teammates, another hosted by Teri Hatcher for the cast and crew of Desperate Housewives and one at fellow co-star Felicity Huffman’s Los Angeles home.

Eva Longoria and her husband-to-be Tony Parker are getting serious about their summer wedding plans – they’ve started shopping for gift ideas. The couple was spotted making a wedding list at Macy’s in New York after store bosses agreed to let them browse after hours recently.

A friend tells Life & Style magazine, “They took a private two hour tour of the registry department. They’re making it totally affordable, and were just having fun.”

The couple will wed on July 7 in basketball star Parker’s native Paris, France. The wedding is being planned by Mindy Weiss, who also took charge of Jessica Simpson’s nuptials.

Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria is furious about reports Heather Mills will appear in the TV show and plans to confront creator Marc Cherry.

Cherry recently revealed he’d love to audition the estranged wife of Sir Paul McCartney for a spot in the ABC series, saying, “If Heather Mills can act I’d be interested. It would be fascinating.”

But regular Longoria was livid when asked if Mills would appear in the next season, saying, “Oh God no. Not at all. That’s crazy, it would be completely crazy.

“If she did have a part I would be offended.”

Desperate Housewives received a Golden Globe nomination today in the category for Best Comedy Series. Woohoo, way to go ladies – congrats!

Marcia Cross, who is expecting twins in April, is looking forward to seeing double.

“I won the lottery at my age to have two,” the 44-year-old Desperate Housewives star tells TV’s Extra.

Cross and stockbroker Tom Mahoney, 48, were married in June. In October, Cross announced on The Ellen DeGeneres Show she was expecting twins, saying: “I was sort of blown away that I was having twins, so I just needed a minute to deal with it.”

And there are some things she’s still dealing with. “I was really freaked out and I was terrified – what if I can’t be a good mother to two and somebody would always be feeling left out?” she tells Extra.

Unlike her Housewives character, Bree Van de Kamp, Cross says she’s “domestically challenged with a very big heart.”

She also clears up any rumors of a problem pregnancy – “I haven’t had a thing,” she says, “I am absolutely, 100 percent fine” – but admits, “It’s hard to carry around all that weight. I wake up feeling like me and then I step on the ground and I’m like, whose body is that walking to the bathroom?”

As for this week’s news that her costar, Eva Longoria, is engaged to Tony Parker, Cross says: “She showed me the ring and I screamed. I think I scared them. Tony was there, and it was just fantastic!”
