Angelina Jolie is my inspiration: Eva Longoria

The 37-year-old actress said Jolie is an inspiration to her and many others, reported Contactmusic.

"I admire her (Angelina). She does the work. She's not just a spokesperson; she is a hard worker and she gets it done. She is authentically tied to the causes she cares about and she knows so much. She is so knowledgeable of the world situation, so everything I am an advocate for," Longoria said.

The actress, who has her own charity organisation which aims to help impoverished Latina women and kids, said it is important for her to give back to her own community.

 

"The Eva Longoria Foundation raises funds primarily for Latina women and children. I will be having a Global Gift Gala to raise money in Marbella. And I'm going to have one in Istanbul. It is important for us politically to recognise that the future success of America is intricately linked to our community," she added.
