The age-old question of “Is that a baby bump or are just a flabby stomach?” has hit Hollywood, with rumours that Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria is pregnant. Her response? She’s just "fat"!

Speculation about her stomach has been mounting of late, but when asked about the pregnancy rumours by a French TV show, she denied them all and used the ultimate excuse – she’s just packed on the pounds.

What do you say to that? She’s well known for being totally tiny, so could we be seeing her relax a little and become more comfortable with her body?

It doesn’t look like anyone is really buying the idea of her weight gain (and her hubby Tony Parker didn’t look too impressed during the interview when she said she was just fat). Eva’s complete denial also isn’t helped by the fact that the Desperate Housewives creator, Marc Cherry, claims Eva and Tony “desperately” want to have kids. He’s convinced that the couple has been trying and that he’ll be the first to know if a baby’s on its way.

Celebs denying pregnancy rumours isn’t anything new - think Jennifer Garner and Nicole Kidman. But now that a baby (equipped with an unusual name) is the latest ‘it’ thing to have in Hollywood, everyone’s waiting with anticipation to see who’s next.

So what do think, does Eva look pregnant or just a little chubby?*

*(But having said that, shouldn’t we all be encouraging our super thin stars to put on a bit of weight?)
