10 Things You Didn't Know About Eliza Dushku

9. Her Bishop Was Mitt Romney

Plenty of celebrities knew others from similar acting schools, drama programs and other places you'd expect to find people in the showbiz profession, but Dushku's link to former-US Presidential candidate Mitt Romney could well be the weirdest. Dushku began to distance herself from Mormonism during her teenage years, stating that she felt differences to what was being taught, though she did admit to having a crush on her bishop, Romney. She told NY Mag: "I mean, he went from being my first crush at six years old €” I named my Ken dolls 'Mitt' €” and then when I was old enough to hear what was coming out of his mouth, it was over. I'm sure he's a nice guy. I knew him to be a nice person to those around him. He had five sons that I knew, that my brothers would play with growing up, and they were kind to others, but what they stand for I don't find to be tolerant or just."
