Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria Parker is on the cover of Allure Magazine, November 2008 issue. In the interview for Allure she talks about her figure, relationship with Tony Parker and how it was growing up knowing you’r not beautiful. She also reveled she gained weight (around 7lbs) for her role as Gabrielle in hit TV series “Desperate Housewives”.

On her figure:
“I stopped working out and gained about seven pounds over the summer, which is a lot for a small person. Every magazine is tearing me apart … I never went up a size. I just got rounder. I’m still a size 0.

On her relationship with Tony Parker:
“I don’t let those magazines and articles define who I am. I know I’m not pregnant. I know Tony and I aren’t breaking up. I know we’re not cheating.”

On growing up thinking she wasn’t beautiful:
“My nickname was Prieta Fea, which means ‘Ugly Dark one’ in Spanish. I didn’t have a boyfriend. My sisters were so mean to me. They used to say I was adopted, and ‘we picked you up at the hospital. You were the extra baby that day.”
