The most searched word on Google is usually related to pop culture: A new video game, a movie star or a pop princess.
At this very moment Eliza Dushku is the most searched for name on Google, she is the star in the upcoming movie "DollHouse"
The show will premiere Friday, February 13 on FOX.
She is part of an underground group whose memories get erased after each secret assignment.
Eliza plays Echo, a woman who lives as a doll for an illegal organization that wipes out the personalities of their dolls and rents them out to their customers, after imprinting the dolls with whatever personality the customer desires.
She was co-star along with Alan Rickman, Bill Pullman, Chris Pine and Rachel Taylor in Bottle Shock, a drama about Napa valley wine. The movie is directed by Randall Miller, who helmed Nobel Son. On August 26, 2007, Dushku signed a development deal with Fox Broadcasting and 20th Century Fox. Under the pact, the network and the studio will develop projects tailor-made for the actress. They also will approach her with existing pitches and scripts.
It was announced on October 31 that Dushku had lured Joss Whedon, famous for creating the Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Firefly series, back to TV, as they agreed to create a new show called Dollhouse. Dushku will play the main character 'Echo' and serve as a producer on the show, which will air on Fox during the 2008-09 TV Season. In an interview, Dushku talked about how Dollhouse, and her reconnection with Whedon came about:
“ I invited Joss Whedon to lunch after I did the business deal and decided that Fox, we'd had a cool relationship in the past and I wanted to do something else and I wanted to get back into a television show. I had him on the brain for sure but I hadn't called him yet, but I sort of took a leap of faith and set things up with Fox and then called Joss. We went to a four-hour lunch where I just sort of used my womanly wiles. No, we've become such good friends, kind of like brother and sister and kind of like he was my watcher, my handler from when I first moved out to L.A. when I was 17 and I was a little bit of a wild child. He's watched me and helped me and taught me over the years. I told him how bad I wanted and needed him back and he accepted and here we are. ”
Personal life
Dushku currently resides in Laurel Canyon, Los Angeles, California.
She has stated that she dated Major League Baseball player Brad Penny.
In late 2008, Dushku broke up with Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane; she is currently dating Los Angeles party promoter and DJ Brent Bolthouse.
Dushku is the CEO of her production company Boston Diva and serves as a producer on her yet-to-be-released Fox sci-fi series, Dollhouse. She is an avid fan of the Boston Red Sox.
Throughout her career, Dushku had refused to appear in nude scenes, saying that people have "a better chance of seeing God than seeing me naked."
Eliza will basically be playing a new character each week, ranging from a cold-hearted assassin to a very expensive wedding date. Whether Dollhouse becomes a cult-classic or another Secret Diary of Desmond Pfeiffer is all up to her acting ability.
Good luck to her.
