Jessica Simpson

Eva Longoria has some advice for her friend Jessica Simpson. Both have lost their hearts to “No. 9″ Texas Tonys, People.com points out. And both have been called a jinx for their pro athlete beaus.

“When I first started dating Tony, I got the same flak,” Longoria told People about now-husband Tony Parker of the San Antonio Spurs. “If he had a bad game, it was my fault … if he had a good game, it wasn’t because of me.”

Simpson caught the same flak over her Dallas Cowboys hottie.

“Believe me, they are not thinking of us when they are on the field, particularly Tony Romo, who has 10 linemen coming at him,” Longoria said.

Her advice: “You have to weather that for a while, and once people get over it, they kind of get used to you.”
