Her youngest sister, Andrea, has been described by Evangeline as “the actor in the family.” Before leaving the town of Fort Saskatchewan for Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada, Evangeline briefly attended three elementary schools, Fort Elementary, Rudolph Hennig and James Mowat Elementary. To me Fort Saskatchewan holds a lot of really great memories. Lilly was a flight attendant with Royal Airlines and also did some modelling for phone chat line Livelinks. On May 11, 2010, Lilly announced on The View that she places writing and being a mother as top priorities, but she likes acting as a day job and she will continue acting when possible. On June 19, 2011, it was announced that Lilly would play the role of the Elf Tauriel in Peter Jackson’s upcoming two-part adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit, due for release in December 2012 and 2013 and currently in production in New Zealand. On Oct 17, 2011, Lilly stated on Jimmy Kimmel Live that she is trying to distance herself from her character in the TV show “Lost” and is now focusing on her future film projects. Lilly has also used her celebrity status to help promote Just Yell Fire, a 2006 video aimed at teaching teenage girls how to defend themselves against rapists.
