My parents divorced when I was born, and my mother is a political science professor, like a feminist Mormon, which is sort of an oxymoron.
From Eliza Dushku
My mother would take groups of students to different countries and always brought us along, so by the time I was 10, I had been to Russia, China, Nicaragua and several other countries.
My mom is this liberal, feminist, Mormon powerhouse. I just love her to death.
It's easy to play a bad girl: You just do everything you've been told not to do, and you don't have to deal with the consequences, because it's only acting.
In my first movie, That Night, with Juliette Lewis, I had a scene with two other girls where we applied a cream to our chests to make our breasts grow. I was 10.
I'm self-confident and not afraid to speak my mind.
I'm a more mature actress now.
I was raised in Boston by three older brothers and a very strong and empowering single mom.
I remember hitting Sarah Michelle Gellar with a right hook during my first week on the job. It was awful. They usually pair actors with stunt doubles to avoid things like that.
I don't let guys do hickeys. That's like a dog marking his territory or something.
