Eva Longoria was shocked when London department store Harrods sent her a bill for clothes and accessories she took home after opening their January sale.

The 'Desperate Housewives' actress had been under the impression she could have the $19,000 worth of designer goods from the world famous shop for free.

A source said: "Eva was paid $100,000 for her personal appearance at Harrods, and after she'd opened the sale she went round the store and did a lot of shopping for herself.

"But she was stunned when she was sent the bill. She thought she was allowed to have what she wanted for free as an extra thank you for turning up."

Although she was surprised to receive the bill, Eva paid it in full rather than cause a dispute with the store - which is owned by Mohammed Al Fayed, the father of Dodi Fayed who was killed along with Princess Diana in a tragic Paris car crash in 1997.

Just another good example of a talentless waste of airtime thinking they should be given free reign to acquire goods without having to pay like the average person.There is not an actor or actress in the film world today that is good enough to demand the ridiculous amounts that are demanded.The same is also true about the sports world and the childish behavior they often exude,and people want their kids looking up to these so called role models?,no thanks I'll pass.Give me the actors,actresses and athletes of the old days and keep your talentless overpaid media whores.

These so-called entertainers - films, sports, music - got rich because the public spent their hard-earned money to support them. Boycot might be the way to go instead of plunking down those dollars to feed their ridiculous lifestyles!!!!
