LISTEN: Eva Longoria on Investing in Soccer and Immersing in Mexican Football Culture With Her New FX Docuseries ‘Necaxa'
On the latest episode of the 'Daily Variety' podcast, Eva Longoria joins co-editor Cynthia Littleton to talk about her new soccer docuseries, 'Necaxa,' premiering on FX on Aug. 7. Before her involvement in the project — which follows Longoria as she tries to revive Club Necaxa, a football team in Aguascalientes, Mexico — Longoria became connected to the sport after initially investing in the Los Angeles Angel City FC women's pro soccer team, which is majority owned by Disney CEO Bob Iger and Willow Bay. More from Variety LISTEN: 'Fantastic Four' Stumbles in Week 2; KCON Lights Up K-pop Fandom; Jason Momoa Triumphs in 'Chief of War' The Key Changes Rocking the Music Industry in 2025 LISTEN: Tatiana Siegel Sits Down With Trump-Loving Superman Alum Dean Cain; Disney, NBCU and Fox Wrap the Upfront Haggle 'Angel City for Los Angeles was a very specific project led by Natalie Portman and Julie Uhrman, who wanted to prove that female owners could run a female team in female sports,' Longoria says on the podcast. 'It was a good pilot program.' Real estate investor Al Tylis and Sam Porter, an executive at Club Necaxa, approached Longoria about her interest in investing in the team. 'They invest in undervalued leagues or teams in huge leagues. They have a cricket team in India and a rugby team in New Zealand,' she says. 'They came and said, 'We want to do La Liga Mexicana because there's so much value in the Mexican League.' The amount of eyeballs watching [soccer] outside of the Premier League and Champions League, and the amount of people that watch La Liga Mexicana, was insane. They have a very moneyball approach. They're very data-driven and statistic-driven.' She continues, 'I'm the opposite. I'm emotionally driven. I don't invest in things. I invest in people. And I fell in love with Al and Sam. I said, 'These are guys I want to be in business with.' Anytime I have an opportunity to elevate what people think of Mexico, the beauty of Mexico, elevate the idea of the talent that comes out of Mexico and the culture, I jump at it. It's what drives me and my purpose as a producer and director. It's the stories I want to tell. So I thought, 'Sign me up. I would love to invest.'' When Longoria originally signed on as an investor in Club Necaxa, she hadn't imagined that producing a series would be the outcome until she arrived in the Mexican town. 'I thought, 'This is a TV show,'' she said. 'The town is a character. The family that runs the team is amazing human beings: the players, the coaches and the staff. I immediately saw a TV show.' It wasn't until later that she teamed with 'Welcome to Wrexham' producers Rob Mac and Ryan Reynolds, who serve as executive producers. 'We started developing the TV show outside of the 'Wrexham' world. By chance, my investment group with Al and Sam decided to invest in Wrexham. In turn, they invested in us,' Longoria says. 'I love what they do with 'Wrexham,'' she says. 'I thought that if there's anybody who knows how to do this, it's Rob and Ryan. I knew we were going to have a show because you can't script what happens. We've been through coaches. We've been through management changes. We sold our star player. We got him back. The emotion and drama are insane. You can't script it.' Since shooting the series, Longoria has had the opportunity to immerse herself in Mexican football culture and learn the significance of soccer to the community while also admitting the fears she had about embarking on unfamiliar territory within the male-dominated sport. One fear, she explains, 'was that I'm Mexican American. I'm American by nationality, and I thought, 'Oh god, I hope they accept me.' I was also nervous as a woman in a man's sport, as one of the few. I thought, 'Oh god, I hope they accept me for that too.' The reason I saw soccer as a national language is because nobody cares about that. They care about what you're doing for the team and how we are going to win championships. So, I've been welcomed with open arms.' on iHeartPodcasts, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Spotify and other podcast platforms.

This New Booze-Free ‘Tequila' Is Made by Stripping the Real Agave Spirit of Alcohol
In what by many indications appears to be a softening spirits market, there is one sector that seems to be doing well: non-alcoholic spirits, which aren't really technically spirits at all. The latest addition to this burgeoning market is a new NA tequila called NeQuila, and this one differs from others in that it appears to be made like the real thing, only with all of the alcohol removed. This might be an unpopular opinion, especially among the younger generation that has been drinking a lot less, but most NA spirits are just not every good. One category manages to do it right—NA amaro—but much of the non-alcoholic versions of whiskey, gin, vodka, rum, and tequila out there are overly sweet and have a weird mouthfeel due to the additives that are used to try to replicate the original. Tequila brand León Y Sol (NOM 1499) is attempting to do something a bit different with the launch of NeQuila (which is technically a '100 percent agave juice beverage' and not tequila due to legal requirements). According to the brand, this NA spirit is made using what it calls 'traditional tequila distillation methods,' although the details of what that means exactly are not revealed. The final step is to strip the alcohol from the spirit using what the brand calls a proprietary process.

Almave is also supposed to be produced using methods that are similar to real tequila, minus the fermentation step that yields the alcohol. Additives are used to try to replicate the flavor and mouthfeel of real tequila in Almave, things like agave extract and syrup, apple cider vinegar, glycerol, and oak tannins. According to the brand, NeQuila has 'no additives, no artificial anything, no flavor engineering,' and there is 0 percent alcohol, as opposed to Almave having less than .5 percent. All that is not to say NeQuila is the better of the two, especially considering we have not been able to sample it, but it does sound like a meaningful difference. If you are looking to cut back on drinking, or go full teetotaler, but still want to enjoy a margarita or paloma every now and then, you can pre-order NeQuila now from the brand's website (SRP $49) to try it for yourself.

Are age-gap relationships too real for reality TV?
"Bachelor in Paradise" mixed its franchise mainstays with its "Golden" cohort for a more age-diverse cast. Other shows are following suit. After more than a decade on the air, Bachelor in Paradise is known for a few things: young, hot singles hooking up and having it out on a white-sand beach, endless swimsuits and humorously edited shots of tropical wildlife. When the reality dating show returned this summer after a two-year hiatus, ABC decided to shake up the formula. Instead of welcoming dozens of 20- and 30-something contestants back for another round of cocktails and confessionals, producers decided to cast a wider net. The revamp would include youngins mixing it up with the older, equally attractive contestants from The Golden Bachelor and The Golden Bachelorette. 'For the first time ever, Golden men and women will be hitting the beaches of Paradise alongside all of your Bachelor and Bachelorette favorites from seasons past,' franchise host Jesse Palmer announced during the Season 29 finale of The Bachelor. 'So how is this whole thing going to work? You're going to have to tune in to find out.' Naturally, age-gap discourse ensued — and just as predictably, controversy soon followed. With the format change, both Palmer and longtime Paradise bartender Wells Adams expressed their hopes for age-gap romances among the Bachelor extended universe in the run-up to the July season premiere. 'This happens all the time in the real world. Look at Bill Belichick right now,' Adams told Us Weekly, referencing the 73-year-old UNC football coach's romance with Jordon Hudson, 24. Some longtime fans and Bachelor alumni reacted negatively, suggesting that the idea was creepy, or at least inappropriate. Palmer soon adjusted his message, instead saying he "encouraged everyone to stay in their generational lane and just not make it weird.' Still, the discourse was curious for a time when so many age-gap relationships seem to be unfolding in the public eye. Is our patience for these May-December romances wearing thin, or is the Bachelor audience specifically primed to reject an age-diverse dating pool? The golden rule When The Golden Bachelor premiered in September 2023 to record ratings, it felt like a potential antidote for the franchise's traditionally narrow outlook on age and dating. In any given season of The Bachelor, any woman over 30 is liable to worry about being treated like a crone next to her younger peers. During Clayton Echard's Bachelor run, a 33-year-old contestant called herself a "cougar." Although The Golden Bachelor and The Golden Bachelorette dig deeper and have earned praise for focusing on participants' emotional depth rather than their age or how they look in a dress or suit, the franchise has kept those shows' participants separate from their younger counterparts, save for a cameo here and there to offer advice. Until now. Bachelor in Paradise's age-gap exploration follows a growing trend in the reality dating space. In addition to ABC's Golden franchise expansion, Netflix launched its own mature dating show, The Later Daters, in 2024. Then there's TLC's MILF Manor, in which mothers and their sons hit the beach together only to find out that they'll all be dating other parents and offspring. Up next in 2026, Bachelor star Nick Viall, who is 44, and his wife, Natalie Joy, who is 26, are hosting their own age-gap dating show, Age of Attraction, where 'age is thrown out the window when singles search for their soulmates.' The flurry of newer shows that subvert age expectations follows a familiar pattern in reality television, Andy Dehnart, editor of Reality Blurred and president of the Television Critics Association, tells Yahoo. Whenever a new format finds even moderate success, everyone races to create their own version 'and generally falls on their face because they've missed whatever makes that thing interesting,' he says. But age-gap dating series and those centered around more mature singles could strike the right balance of familiar and novel to viewers, Denhart says. He doesn't foresee age gaps taking over reality TV, though. 'I don't expect every single show to suddenly do this, or Big Brother next summer to be a house full of 20-somethings and 50-somethings,' he says. A sign of the times While shows about older singles' experiences in the dating world reflect a growing spirit of inclusivity in reality television, the focus on age gaps, specifically, seems out of step with real-world trends. According to Pew Research, the share of heterosexual relationships in which the husband is older than his wife by three or more years has been steadily declining since 1880. In fact, data shows married couples keep getting closer in age. In 2000, 46% of opposite-sex married couples consisted of spouses who were two years apart in age or less. In 2022, that increased to 51%. Whereas in the past, supposed 'gold diggers' were often maligned to the point of outright harassment (see: Anna Nicole Smith), younger generations are highly attuned to the skewed power dynamics that can arise in these relationships and are more likely to criticize the older partner in the couple as a 'cradle robber.' Perhaps because of this, the public discourse has not been kind to many of the celebrity age-gap relationships we've seen of late. Viall and Joy faced criticism from both within and outside Bachelor Nation for their 18-year gap; Belichick and his 'creative muse' Hudson have weathered public scrutiny for their nearly five-decade age disparity; and Tom Cruise's new, much younger rumored flame, Ana de Armas, has already been accused of ageism for apparently liking an unflattering social media post about his ex Nicole Kidman's supposed cosmetic work. Within this context, it's hardly a surprise that the idea of Boomers hooking up with millennials and Gen Z-ers on the BiP beach did not spark joy for many. But Lavonne McNeil, a 60-year-old billing specialist from Englewood, Colo., who has been watching the Bachelor franchise since the 2000s, has a different perspective. When she met her lhusband Larry, who died nearly two years ago, she was 32 and he was 54. They married after seven years of dating and remained together until his death. 'It was a beautiful run, and I absolutely loved and adored him,' McNeil said. 'He made me feel safe, and he made me feel validated. He was the best person I could ever ask for in my corner.' The way McNeil sees it, the dismissive takes about a May-December romance ignore a core reality of falling in love: the heart wants what it wants, social expectations be damned. In her case, the relationship lasted 27 years, throughout which she and Larry loved each other intensely. The difficulty only arose at the very end. As a couple with significant years between them grows older, she says, their dynamic begins to change. 'It's not so much a couple anymore, as it is like taking care of a parent,' she says. 'That is only the downfall [of] that. But I was there until the end regardless, because I knew that was my responsibility.' McNeil feels a little differently about the prospect of age gaps on Bachelor in Paradise than some of the online commentariat. 'Age is not a factor,' she says about falling in love — at least, not in her case. Compatibility 'depends on the couple. It's not a one-size-fits-all. … It's a case-by-case scenario.' Dehnart also believes the Paradise age-gap discourse has gotten a little off track. He acknowledges that age gaps typically bring with them a power differential that can become problematic. Given that dating shows typically reinforce traditional understandings of heterosexual relationships, and especially at a time when the culture is trending back toward conservatism, he says, 'I think it's understandable that when you disrupt that a little bit, people get weirded out.' At the same time, Dehnart argues, the singles on Bachelor in Paradise are in their late 20s to early 30s. 'People in their 30s, especially those who've already been on a reality TV show, know what they're doing — not only in front of the camera, but in relationships,' he says. 'At least enough to make those kinds of choices.' These productions are also hyper-mediated environments, in which many conventional aspects of dating fly out the window. In Paradise, especially, where marriage is a potential result but not necessarily the goal, applying traditional rules of dating starts to feel a little self-defeating. As Dehnart puts it, 'I don't think that anyone's expecting [Paradise] to be, really, the solution to their relationship issues.' Age is just a number So far, the Goldens and their younger counterparts have kept things light on the BiP beach — although Sean McLaughlin, 28, and April Kirkwood, 67, heated things up with a kiss during a hot (and feathered) chemistry challenge. Kirkwood previously gave Jonathon Johnson, also 28, her rose when he faced elimination, but he's since clarified that their bond remains strictly platonic. Chances are, we won't see a full-blown relationship form between any of the Goldens and the junior cohort, but in this horny setting, it's wise to never say never. After a lackluster ninth season, before its hiatus, Paradise, along with the Goldens, has now added a $500,000 cash prize. For the first time since 2007, The Bachelorette won't air a new season this year — news that broke not long before two lead producers left the franchise. Ratings for The Bachelor have been trending downward for years. Within that context, the experimentation we're seeing on Paradise begins to feel like part of a bigger pivot. According to Dehnart, this move could be interpreted as a 'last-ditch effort' to save the Bachelor franchise by taking its newest, Golden success and blending it with something that's historically worked — like transforming its onscreen talent into a revolving cast of pseudo soap opera stars who create new stories again and again. So far, the season has not performed well relative to its predecessors; Season 10's premiere brought in the lowest viewership in Paradise history. ABC and Warner Bros., which produces the series, did not immediately respond to Yahoo's request for comment. 'This is maybe our first network franchise that is ready to go away,' Dehnart says. Mixing age groups, he suggests, 'could be something that injects a little bit of life into it at this late stage and maybe gives us a few more years, depending on how it plays out.'
