Eva Longoria’s marriage failed on "Desperate Housewives" in part because she was personally tipping the lawn boy. But in real life, Eva is hoping for a better result with her engagement to basketball star Tony Parker.

The 31-year-old actress said "yes" to her longtime beau, 24-year-old French-born Parker, who is point guard for the San Antonio Spurs. The couple met in 2004, briefly split in September, but obviously turned things around after a romantic trip to Paris in October.

Longoria’s representative Liza Anderson confirms, "Eva and Tony are officially engaged. The couple has never been happier. Tony flew into Los Angeles last night after his game and surprised Eva at her home as she got off work". Lucky for Eva she wasn’t tipping the lawn boy at the time!

Anderson continued: "The couple plans to wed in France in the summer of 2007 in what they describe as a big, happy ceremony with lots of family and friends." This will be the first marriage for Parker and the second marriage for Eva, who in 2004 divorced Tyler Christopher from ABC’s "General Hospital" after two years.

When Eva and Tony started dating, Eva publicly stated that she was "the teacher" in the bedroom and that Tony was an excellent student. Well, that’s one class in which I wouldn’t mind getting lots of homework!

Jamie Pressly got a nice surprise this weekend–an engagement ring. The Emmy-nominated hottie actress, known as trash-talking Joy on NBC’s “My Name is Earl,” got engaged to her boyfriend, DJ Eric Cubiche.

Jamie’s publicist Megan Pope confirmed the engagement, saying “It’s a beautiful ring. They’ve been dating about a year and a half, and have been friends for nine years.”

Perhaps Jamie is better known for getting naked on film. Jamie started her film career as Drew Barrymore’s body-double in the film “Poison Ivy.” Jamie also posed nude for the March 1998 and February 2004 issues of Playboy. In 2003, Jamie launched her own line of lingerie called “J’Aime” which has since become a full-line of clothing including sleepware.

In an interview with Dr. Drew, Jamie said she has no trouble with nudity. “Being nude in front of a photographer doesn’t bother me. I love being naked–who doesn’t come home after a long day and just strip off? It’s the best thing you can do.”

I agree, especially when you have a body cut like Jamie’s.
