Eva Longoria of "Desperate Housewives" is closing her Las Vegas nightclub, amid financial troubles.Eve Club, which is located at the CityCenter complex on the Las Vegas Strip, is attached to the actress' successful Beso Steakhouse restaurant, which will remain open , according to CBS News.
Beso LLC filed for bankruptcy in January after the company accumulated $5.7 million in debt. The federal Chapter 11 filing reported that the club was losing over $76,000 a month. Longoria owns approximately one-third of the business.
"Beso Restaurant continues to thrive, and at this time Eve Nightclub will remain open for special occasions and private events during a slight remodel," Longoria's representation said in a statement obtained by OnTheRedCarpet.com on Friday.
Now, an unlikely company is showing interest in the venue. Ashley Madison, a dating website catering to those interested in having affairs, has expressed interest in turning Eve Club into "the exclusive restaurant and club in Las Vegas for discrete meetings and intimate encounters," Radar Online reports.
Ashley Madison CEO sent a letter to Schwartzer and McPherson Law Firm, expressing an interest in the location and stating that "a main barrier to Beso's success was its branding as a singles' club."
Longoria opened her first restaurant, Beso Restaurant and Kiss Nightclub, with celebrity chef Todd English in Hollywood in 2008. The Las Vegas location, Beso Steakhouse and Eve Club, opened in December 2009.
In April, the actress released her first cookbook, "Eva's Kitchen: Cooking with Love for Family and Friends" and told OnTheRedCarpet.com that as a kid, she would make casseroles in her Easy-Bake Oven.
"I would put like casseroles in it instead of the brownie mix it came with," she told OnTheRedCarpet.com host Rachel Smith at a recent event promoting her cookbook. "And it wouldn't work, really, because it wasn't powerful enough. The light bulb would not cook the casserole and I couldn't understand why."
