Longoria defends Simpson

LONDON:

Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria is pleading with fans to stop blaming singer Jessica Simpson for the poor performance of her boyfriend Tony Romo, an American football star. Longoria is married to basketball star Tony Parker and knows what it is like to be held responsible by sports fans, conatctmusic.com reports. She said, “I felt for her because I’ve been through that and I was always blamed for Tony’s bad games. That’s the life of an athlete’s woman. Believe me, they’re not thinking of us on the court or the field or wherever they are.
