Hillary Clinton Invited Her to the White House
Elisha Ann Cuthbert was born in Alberta, Canada to Patricia, a housewife, and Kevin, an automotive design engineer. She lived in Quebec and Toronto before she found her calling.

Her first acting appearance was on the kids’ horror show, Are You Afraid of the Dark? She started as an extra in the series before becoming a regular. Before this, she co-hosted Popular Mechanics for Kids with Jay Baruchel which caught Hillary Clinton’s attention. The former First Lady invited Cuthbert to the White House. She acquired more TV and film credits in Canada before moving to LA.
She was on 24
Soon after moving to Hollywood, Cuthbert landed the role of Kim Bauer, Jack Bauer’s daughter, in the thrilling TV series, 24. She appeared in the first three seasons and had guest roles in subsequent seasons. She also had small roles in some box office hits like Love Actually.
Her first big break was in the coming-of-age flick, Girl Next Door. She played an former porn star opposite Emile Hirsch. When she told her parents about her first lead role, they were shocked, to say the least. In fact, her mother told her to come back to Canada right away!
Cuthbert also acted in movies like House of Wax and appeared in Weezer’s music video for “Perfect Situation” as well as Paris Hilton’s “Nothing in this World.” Christina Ricci’s role in Speed Racer almost went to her, but she continued her role in 24. Her most memorable role was in the ensemble comedy, Happy Endings.
She currently stars in the Netflix series, The Ranch and her latest movie, Goon: Last of the Enforcers is expected to release this year. She is sometimes called a “has-been” actress but Cuthbert is by no means a washout. She is one of the most beautiful actresses on TV, critically-acclaimed for certain roles, and has amassed a net worth of $20.0 million.
She Splits Her Time between LA and Canada
The 34-year-old is an avid hockey fan and a Los Angeles Kings Season ticket holder. After dating a few actors in the past, Cuthbert began a relationship with NHL player, Dion Phaneuf. She married the professional hockey player in 2013. Cuthbert’s ex-boyfriend, Sean Avery, also an NHL player, made an absolutely crude “sloppy seconds” comment on Cuthbert’s relationship with Phaneuf.

NHL took action against Avery, who was also criticized by the media and fans. Cuthbert and Phaneuf got engaged in 2012. Their wedding was in Canada, a year later with 300 guests in attendance. Her traditional wedding dress got attention for drawing inspiration from Grace Kelly’s iconic wedding dress. With her husband being an alternate captain of the Ottawa Senators, she splits her time between her work commitments in LA and attending her husband’s home games in Canada.
Tyler Henry Contacted Her Grandmother
Hollywood Medium Tyler Henry contacted the spirit of Elisha Cuthbert’s grandmother in the latest episode which aired on Wednesday (June 14). Cuthbert’s grandma passed away alone at home and Henry said that she was okay with it.
“She had always said that like, ‘I’m never gonna go, even if something were wrong, I’m not gonna go to the hospital, I’m not gonna die in the hospital,'” Tyler told Elisha who had tears in her eyes, “She didn’t want to have to go through that process and she passed away alone at home, and she’s OK with it.”
