Eva Longoria Finds Tears Harder Than Sex  5/30/05

Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria finds it easier to perform intimate sex scenes than turn on the tears.

The 30-year-old actress - who plays unfaithful trophy wife Gabrielle Solis in the hit TV series - has no worries performing the raunchy bedroom scenes for her on/off affair with teenage gardener John Rowland, but dreads the scenes where she needs to cry for the camera.

She says, "The sex scenes were easier for me because I could tap into my sexuality, but crying was hard.

"Some actresses can turn it on like a tap, but I don't have the ability, and I would dread the scenes that called for it."
