Eva Longoria was the life of the party at her star-studded 50th birthday celebration in Miami Friday night.
Photos obtained by Page Six show the “Desperate Housewives” alum posing for photos and dancing all night with pals like Gabrielle Union, Dwyane Wade, Becky G and more at David Grutman’s Casadonna.
A source tells us exclusively that Longoria was also joined by her husband, José Bastón, who “endearingly stood by her and celebrated her” as she rang in the big milestone.
“Eva was glowing,” an eyewitness adds, noting that the “Devious Maids” alum wore a custom, sheer and sparkly champagne-pink gown for the private gathering. Her hair was styled down in loose curls.
Becky, 28, made a heartfelt speech at one point during the fête, some of which was shared on Instagram.
The singer said in part, “I am so happy to know you. I am blessed to exist in the same lifetime as you, to follow in your footsteps. You are truly one of the most bad-ass people I’ve ever met.”
Longoria, who like the “Shower” singer is Mexican-American, thanked her dear friend for the kind words in Spanish and wrote via her Instagram Story, “Te amo.”
She also thanked her loved ones for making it out to the chic Italian restaurant to celebrate her.
Longoria and Union, 52, who are longtime friends and business parters, appeared to be having a blast, as they were captured sharing a sweet embrace and flashed big smiles during the happy celebration.
We’re told Longoria wanted to keep the party going, so she went to LIV nightclub in South Beach later in the evening. She was joined by Becky, Baby Gyal and Yris Palmer for a “girls’ night out,” per a source.
The insider adds that while at the opulent club inside of the Fontainebleau Hotel, the “Mayores” singer showed the “Land of Women” star how to take a shot “Latina-style” by saying, “Arriba, abajo, al centro, y pa’dentro!,” which is a fun phrase in Spanish that translates to “up, down, in the center, and inward!”
“Eva partied at LIV until very late into the morning,” the source tells Page Six. “She got behind the DJ booth and pretended to DJ. She even got on the mic and was hyping up the crowd!”
Longoria, who documented much of her fun night on Instagram, posted via her Stories early Saturday that she was back to her parenting duties bright and early.
The actress posted a photo of her with her 6-year-old son, Santiago, in bed and wrote alongside of it, ” …. best wake up call at 5 am.”
Ahead of her big birthday, Longoria gave some insight her extensive wellness routine.
In November 2024, she told Marie Claire for her cover story that she was preparing to turn 50 the way “some people train for extreme sports.”
Longoria credited red light therapy, cold plunges, waking up with the sunrise, journaling, meditation and strength training for helping her maintain a youthful look.
“For me, age is just a number, but I’m excited,”she told the publication at the time. “I refuse to believe my greatest success is behind me.”
