Eva Longoria was one of the first to hit the red carpet at the 96th annual Academy Awards on Sunday.
Her directorial debut, Flamin’ Hot, is nominated for Best Song for Becky G’s The Fire Inside, written by Diane Warren.
The Desperate Housewives veteran, 48, exuded old, classic Hollywood glam in a black Tamara Ralph off-the-shoulder dress with an hourglass silhouette.
Eva accessorized with a diamond studded necklace from jeweler Bucherer with a giant diamond in the middle, a diamond ring on her index finger and diamond earrings.
Her make-up was done in bronze shades to accentuate her features and she sported smoky eyes, muted blush and a natural peachy lip colour.

She wore her long dark hair parted in the middle and blown straight, yet full of body.
Her movie, Flamin’ Hot, is about a janitor named Richard Montanez, who was a janitor at Frito Lay when he got the idea for Flamin’ Hot Cheetos. His creation, inspired by the flavors of his Mexican community, was a hit and disrupted the snack food industry.
The 96th Academy Awards honor the best films of 2023 – with the glittering ceremony held at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood.
The most long-awaited films of the past year – Barbie and Oppenheimer – lead the nominations.
Oppenheimer has 13 nods, including best picture and best actor for Cillian Murphy – who is favorite to win the lead category after winning a BAFTA, a Golden Globe and SAG Award for his role as physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer.
The impressive total — which also includes Best Supporting Actor and Actress for Robert Downey Jr. and Emily Blunt, as well as Best Director for Christopher Nolan – is just one nomination short of the all-time record set by Titanic in 1998. Last year’s other Smash hit film – Barbie – was nominated for eight awards, but was also the victim of notable snubs from the Academy.
Its star Margot Robbie was not nominated for Best Actress, while Greta Gerwig was not nominated for Best Director.
Another surprise saw America Ferrera nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Barbie, with pundits saying her character’s impassioned speech about feminism sealed the deal.
For Best Actor, Bradley Cooper and Cillian Murphy are set to win the award. Colman Domingo, Paul Giamatti and Jeffrey Wright also received nominations.

Annette Bening, Lily Gladstone, Sandra Huller, Carey Mulligan and Emma Stone have been nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role.
Gladstone is the first Indian to be nominated for Best Actress for her performance in Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon – and is the favorite in the category thanks to her wins at the Golden Globes and SAG Awards.
What Was I Made For by Billie Eilish and I’m Just Ken by Ryan Gosling from Barbie received their expected nominations for Best Original Song.
