Evangeline nearly lost the opportunity to star on ABC's LOST due to her Canadian citizenship. J.J. Abrams and ABC had to obtain
a work visa from the American government before she could start filming.
Prior to her starring role on LOST, Evangeline worked as an extra in several productions filmed in Vancouver. She can
be seen in episodes of Tru Calling, Smallville and Dead Like Me, and in films Freddy vs. Jason and Stealing Sinatra.
Evangeline is currently dating her LOST co-star, Dominic Monaghan. They are rumored to be engaged, since Dominic was spotted
shopping for rings in October 2005.
'Lost' stars Dominc Monaghan and Evangeline Lilly keep insisting they are not an item.
Before her role on LOST, Evangeline attended university in Vancouver.
Evangeline is fluent in French and loves ice skating, canoeing, kayaking, snowboarding and rock climbing.
Evangeline was named the #2 sexiest woman in the world (2005) by Maxim Magazine.
Evangeline says, "I was a broke student whose car broke down every day--who could barely afford to eat--and was trying
to make money for tuition and, therefore, was doing the odd commercial here and there. So, now I just try very hard to keep
my feet planted on the ground. I keep reminding myself that any day now I could go back to that broken-down car and my university
life.
