The daughter of Kevin, who worked as an automotive design engineer, and Patricia, a housewife, she lived in Greenfield Park, Quebec, and later Toronto, Ontario, before she changed country, and settled in Los Angeles, California, when she was 17, having matriculated from Centennial Regional High School in 2000.

Elisha’s career actually started when she was only nine years old, when she was chosen as a model for children’s clothing, and then became a foot model. In 1996, Elisha made her first television appearance, though as an extra in the horror-themed series for children “Are You Afraid of the Dark?”, while in 1997 she became the host of the show “Popular Mechanics for Kids”, after which she made her real acting debut, as Sarah in the drama “Dancing on the Moon” in the same year. She continued with roles in such films as “Nico the Unicorn” (1998), “Who Gets the House” (1999), and the lead role in “Airspeed”, also in 1999, which further established her net worth.

With the start of the 2000s, Elisha’s name started becoming more popular, with the role of Kim Bauer in the TV thriller drama series “24” (2001-2010), while in 2004 she was chosen for the role of Danielle in the romantic comedy film “The Girl Next Door”, which cemented her name in Hollywood. She continued with the role of Carly Jones in the horror film “House of Wax” in 2005, and the same year co-starred in the crime-drama thriller “The Quiet”, next to Camilla Belle and Edie Falco. Elisha earned a reputation for appearing in thrillers, and in 2007 starred in the film “Captivity”, however, in 2008 starred in the romantic comedy “My Sassy Girl” with Jesse Bradford and Austin Basis. After the end of her stint in “24”, Elisha was cast in another notable role, that of Alex Kerkovich in the TV series “Happy Endings” (2011-2013), while since 2016 she has been portraying Abby in the TV comedy series “The Ranch”, which has also added to her net worth.

Thanks to her looks, Elisha has been considered as a sex symbol for over a decade, and in 2013 she was elected “The Most Beautiful woman of American TV”, while in 2015 she was voted the sexiest actress in the world by the Glam’Mag magazine. To speak further of her accomplishments, she is on the list “ The 25 Hottest Blonde Bombshell Actresses” by Complex magazine, while back in 2005 she was No. 5 on the FHM list of “100 Sexiest Women in the World”, among many other recognitions and honors.

When it comes to her personal life, Elisha has been married to hockey player Dion Phaneuf since 2013; the couple has one child together. The family resides in Ottawa during the hockey season, while they spend their summers in New London, Prince Edward Island.

Quote
1 Off set, I’m always dancing and acting like an idiot. I’m kind of goofy and do stupid things. Am I comic genius? I don’t know. But I can be funny.
2 [on the difference between playing comedy and drama] In drama, you coast along your own plotline and know where your character is going.
3 I’m not knocking 24 (2001), but after playing a character like Kim, you can’t help wanting to do something completely different. The criticism didn’t hurt me. I wasn’t writing the storylines, I was just doing the best job I could.
4 [on 24 (2001)] From the beginning, you could tell that it was something really different and it was 10 years of my life. I went from being an 18-year-old girl to a woman.
5 [on Kiefer Sutherland] He taught me not to read anything in the media or on the Internet. He’s definitely a long-time mentor to me.
6 I’m a huge fan of video games and comic books. I’m not die-hard or anything, but I definitely appreciate the art in it, which is really cool.
7 I’m very mellow. I think if I hadn’t become an actress, I would’ve lived the simple life. You know, get married and sit on my porch.
8 At the time, Sex and the City (1998) was in its prime and I remember thinking, “God, those girl are so lucky! They got to wear all these different outfits and I’m stuck in the same thing for ten months.”.
9 With friends and family in Montreal, it’s always in the back of my mind. I like going back. I miss the nightlife. It’s such a great city. I’ve been a lot of places in the world, and I’m sure I’m biased because I grew up there, but I love it.
10 [on her performance in the Weezer’s video] I remember just sort of thinking I’m not going to get to do this too, too often, so I just went crazy and threw alcohol around. I was acting ridiculous and screaming at everybody and throwing a fit.
11 [when asked about moving from Montreal to Los Angeles at age 17] I just went with my gut feeling and thought that if I care this much about what I’m doing, then maybe there are opportunities elsewhere and I’d be stupid not to give it a try.
12 I definitely believe in fate. And I believe what you put in is what you get in return. That’s the way it’s worked for me. As for the big picture – there’s some sort of plan.
13 [on The Girl Next Door (2004)] I don’t ever want to be doing the same sort of thing, I never want to be typecast, because I have way too much to give to be sort of, to always be the hot chick in the movie.
14 I was lucky,” (in Los Angeles) “I found what I wanted to do when I was 11.
15 I believe not giving up on doing things.
16 I feel like I’m one of the Simpsons. (She will have to stick with the same wardrobe all season on the Fox series 24 (2001).
