Eva Longoria Poses for Same Sex Couple's Project to Spread Love Against Homophobia [PHOTO]

Eva Longoria is joining the fight against homophobic behavior by posing in a same sex couple's photo shoot, for an Olivier Ciappa project titled, "The Imaginary Couples"

Entertainment Weekly reported the Telenovela actress stood face-to-face, in an affectionate and endearing photo, alongside singer Lara Fabian in an effort to promote love, peace and unity.

Longoria and Fabain represent only one photo from "The Imaginary Couples" project. According to the site, Ciappa enlisted the help of other straight actors, artists and athletes to project the message of love, despite one's sexual orientation. Ciappa posted on his website a brief explanation as to why he was inspired to create this body work, explaining that a photo posted on the web of himself, his partner and their child received such a response from the internet world that exhibited homophobic behavior.

"Homophobia is the first symptom of a widespread ignorance of homosexuality, a distorted vision, sometimes fantasy," Ciappa explained on his website. "...I wanted the viewer to confront the gentleness, the simplicity of these images in order to change their look, sweep their representations, and keep only the essentials: love, nothing but love." The French actor shared other photos from the project on his Instagram that speak to what American families can look like in 2016. Captioned with the hashtag #gaydads, Ciappa captured the image of two men and a little boy taking a group photo while sitting on the sand at the beach.

Others who joined Longoria for the Ciappa project were director Denis Villeneuve and Jean-Marc Vallée.

Though Longoria showed her support for Ciappa and his project, she is in the process of celebrating a love of her own after recently becoming engaged to Jose Antonio Baston. According to ET, the Desperate Housewives star announced her engagement on Instagram by flashing her Ruby engagement with the hashtag, "ummmm so this happened."
