Eva Longoria's Citizen K spread for the French fashion/lifestyle magazine's fall issue is raising a few eyebrows as the barely recognizable, petite Latino actress is shown sporting a black bob and glaringly white skin.

The edgy, goth-like editorial of Eva Longoria's Citizen K spread is substantially similar to Kim Kardashian's shoot for YRB magazine earlier this month.

**Implications** - Leave it up to stunning Eva Longoria to once again rock a [fashion editorial](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles). She has got to be one of the most dynamite Desperate Housewives, and would make any editorial instantly a huge sensation.
