Award-winning actress Eva Longoria has been named the lead ambassador for a new public service campaign, created in partnership between the Callaway Golf Foundation and the Entertainment Industry Foundation, aimed at raising awareness and funds for ovarian cancer prevention.

In her role as the campaign ambassador, Longoria will appear in both TV and print public service announcements to encourage women to better understand their risks for the disease and to urge them to get involved in the cause. Ovarian cancer is the second leading gynecologic cancer and, the most deadly, accounting for more than 15,000 deaths annually. Because there is no accurate screening test to detect ovarian cancer, it is typically diagnosed at a late stage when it is more difficult to treat.

“I was shocked to learn that ovarian cancer is the most deadly reproductive cancer with no early detection test available,” said Longoria. “That’s why I’ve teamed up with the Callaway Golf Foundation and the Entertainment Industry Foundation to educate women about ovarian cancer. Until there is an early detection test, we are urging all women to get involved in understanding their personal risk for the disease.”

Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry warned Tony Parker his new wife Eva Longoria has the body of “a 12-year-old boy” at the couple’s star-studded nuptials earlier this month (07Jul07). Cherry joined his Housewives stars Teri Hatcher, Nicollette Sheridan, Brenda Strong and Felicity Huffman at the couple’s romantic ceremony at the Chateau of Vaux le Vicomte. During a speech at the reception, Cherry joked about the bride’s petite frame. He said, “Tony, what you have to realize is under all that hair and make-up, her body is just like that of a 12-year-old boy.

Eva Longoria returned to the set of Desperate Housewives Monday after a three-week wedding celebration and honeymoon.

“It was a great wedding, but it was time to come home,” Longoria’s rep Liza Anderson tells People mag. “I got a call from her this morning and she was already at work. She sounded so great, really upbeat. She’s completely content.”

Longoria, 32, arrived at the Universal Studios lot at 7:30 a.m. fresh from her low-key honeymoon with basketball star Tony Parker, 25, to the Caribbean Island of Turks and Caicos.

The newlyweds dined over long candlelit dinners and spent their days relaxing and playing pingpong and Yahtzee.

“It was just her and Tony,” says Anderson. “They had a private villa. She’s completely relaxed and rejuvenated. She had a full week alone with Tony to decompress. It was the perfect balance to gear up for Season 4. So she’s really excited. She wasn’t dreading work at all.”

“She’s happier than ever right now,” says Anderson. “Life is great.”

Eva Longoria and Tony Parker jetted off for a romantic honeymoon on the Caribbean islands of Turks and Caicos.

But unlike their lavish wedding, which capped off a week of festivities, the newlyweds have been keeping a very low profile and enjoying quiet time with each other on their honeymoon, sources tell People magazine.

Since arriving at their Caribbean resort at the beginning of the week, Longoria and Parker have been spotted dining over long intimate candlelit dinners at the islands’ exclusive restaurants.

During the days, the couple have been relaxing under the shade of an umbrella at the beach, “cozying up to each other,” according to a resort guest.

The most spirited activity for the two thus far? A game of Ping-Pong and an afternoon of Yahtzee – played in the shade, of course.

The couple are due to return to Los Angeles on Sunday, with Longoria expected to report back on the set of Desperate Housewives to begin filming the fourth season of the ABC hit series on Monday.

Meet Mr. and Mrs. Parker — the newlyweds landed at LAX on July 9th, after their romantic European wedding extravaganza, but quickly boarded a private jet headed for a secret tropical location.

Prior to the wedding Eva said in interviews that she had to go back to the states the day after the wedding to begin filming DH on July 9th…perhaps they gave her some time off.
