Eva Longoria Begs Bosses to Axe Naked Scenes  7/28/06

Eva Longoria has begged her bosses on Desperate Housewives to stop making her take baths on the TV show - because she hates spending all day naked in water.

The sexy star - who plays man-eater Gabrielle Solis in the show - has grown tired of being forced to strip off while her male cast mates parade through the set to ogle her naked body.

She says, "I didn't realize how much lingerie I'd be in and how much time I'd spend in the bathtub. I actually had to go to the director and go, 'Can you please stop putting me in the bathtub?

"It's a pain in the butt to shoot. You're naked and they just fill it up with bubbles and basically they put body make-up on you so you look beautifully tanned with flawless skin and then it just comes off in the water so you're sitting in this brown water all day.

"There have been times when they do all the tub scenes in one day, so I go out and in comes Ricardo (Chavira), then in comes Jesse (Metcalfe). I'm like 'Guys, can we space out the tub scenes?'"
