Eva Longoria Parker to trace her roots with DNA testing -- on TV

PBS has announced a new mini-series called “Faces of America”, with Henry Louis Gates Jr. — where they’ll use DNA testing to trace the ancestry of each of 12 celebs.

Our favorite Mexican American housewife, Eva Longoria Parker, was one of those chosen.

Joining her will be Yo-Yo Ma, Malcolm Gladwell, Dr. Oz, Meryl Streep, Stephen Colbert (!!!Yes!!!), Kristi Yamaguchi and more.

The airs on Wednesdays from 8 to 9 p.m. EST, from Feb. 10 to March 3 on PBS.

I’m there.

    We are -so- going to watch it. It’s been on before (another network?), and he traced Chris Rock’s history back. It made for *amazing* television!
