Devious Maids Premieres Sunday, June 23, at 10pm ET\/PT<\/strong><\/p>\n

From “Desperate Housewives” creator Marc Cherry<\/strong> and executive producer Eva Longoria<\/strong>, “Devious Maids” stars Ana Ortiz, Dania Ramirez, Roselyn Sanchez, Edy Ganem<\/strong> and Judy Reyes<\/strong> as maids who work for the rich and famous in Beverly Hills.<\/p>\n

In Devious Maids<\/em>, murder and mayhem collide in the mansions of Beverly Hills\u2019 wealthiest and most powerful families. Class warfare has never been as fun and dirty as it is in the tony enclave where the staff is as clever, witty, outrageous and downright devilish as their employers. Whoever holds the dirt holds the power, and before the season is over, illicit affairs will be revealed and deep, dark secrets exposed as we learn the sordid details behind a shocking murder of a beloved housemaid.<\/p>\n

The series centers on a close-knit group of maids bonded together by their jobs, life struggles and the melodramatic \u201cupstairs-downstairs\u201d universe that engulfs their employers. Rosie (Ram\u00edrez), a widow who left her son back in Mexico when her husband died, works as the maid and nanny for a pair of self-absorbed and successful actors, Peri and Spence Westmore (Mariana Klaveno, True Blood<\/em>, and Grant Show, Swing Town<\/em>). Aspiring singer Carmen (S\u00e1nchez) hopes that her pop-star employer Alejandro (Matt Cede\u00f1o, Days of Our Lives<\/em>) can help jump-start her career, but Odessa (Melinda Page Hamilton, Mad<\/em> Men<\/em>), his very loyal housekeeper and her boss, will stop at nothing to stand in her way. Zoila (Reyes) is the senior maid for Genevieve Delatour (Susan Lucci, All My Children<\/em>), a codependent, emotionally unstable wealthy woman. She works alongside her teen daughter Valentina (Ganem), who has a crush on Genevieve\u2019s handsome son, Remi (Drew Van Acker, Pretty Little Liars<\/em>).<\/p>\n

In the series premiere, the women turn to one another for support when their friend and fellow maid Flora (Paula Garc\u00e9s, CSI: Miami<\/em>) is brutally murdered at the home of her employers, Evelyn and Adrian Powell (Rebecca Wisocky, American Horror Story<\/em>, and Tom Irwin, Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em>), at one of the largest society events of the year. Meanwhile, newcomer Marisol (Ortiz) is hired to clean the home of Taylor and Michael Stappord (Brianna Brown, Homeland<\/em>, and Brett Cullen, Damages<\/em>), a newlywed couple with a complicated love history. But Marisol has ulterior motives, and when someone she loves becomes wrapped up in Flora\u2019s murder, she goes undercover to learn the truth.<\/p>\n
