According to an on set source, Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria was reluctant to shoot a racy scene where her character Gabrielle, a regular yoga practitioner, does yoga naked in her home.
However, producers came up with a nifty solution - they plied her with chocolate to calm her nerves.
A source says, "It's a hilarious scene, but Eva needed some coaxing first."
Producer Marc Cherry knew the star had a sweet tooth and ordered dozens of boxes of chocolate to be delivered to the set immediately. The source adds, "She was a lot more agreeable (after the chocolates arrived). Marc now keeps a steady supply of Godiva chocolates close by for all his divas on the show."
If chocolate becomes the bait of choice to woo the celebs into compliance, can we expect these women to eventually look like someone who actually lives in the suburbs?
