Eliza at Super Model Albania 2006

Keri · 09-19-2006, 06:11 PM

It would appear that those Albanians finally managed to tempt Eliza back to judge a modelling contest! (Haven't they been talking about doing this for ages?)

I've had an article emailed to me but it's all in Albanian, so if anyone can translate it please let me know by PM.

lovely_disaster · 09-19-2006, 07:54 PM

i really hope someone can translate it. whats so bad about judging a modelling contest? :P although, it'd be better if she was in it! thanks for heads up keri!

BlackWolf · 09-19-2006, 10:01 PM

Damn, I guess that means she can't win.....

09-20-2006, 04:32 AM

Any idea when its taking place Keri?

I feel a little sorry for the contestants though, regardless of whoever wins, the judge is going to be the most beautiful woman in the room

Still, it'll be interesting to see if she was good taste in women

Edit: It seems the contest has already taken place...time to start pic hunting

Awww Ben! You're girlfriend is a very lucky girl

But yeah, it was earlier this week I think *screws up eyes to try and translate Albanian* on the 15th I think?

I'm sure our Power Pic Posters will come up with the goodies very soon

thanks keri for the info

i wonder if eliza is there to find out about more details on the film she mentioned on her last visit??

i hope there's some pics of the event

09-20-2006, 05:10 AM

I found pics from the event but none of Eliza, I think this visit was a bit lower profile than the last one.

Heres the winner:

Aphrodite · 09-20-2006, 05:20 AM

Hmm, interesting. That girl looks really pretty in the first pic, but a bit scary in the second.

How strange that this was never mentioned anywhere else! The Boston thing was recent, I'm surprised they didn't mention that she was going to Albania to judge a contest.

Very big edit! I found this picture of Eliza! I have no idea when it was taken but it was on some Albania website and the article was dated September 9th.

Looks like they used some major airbrushing, haha. Oh, and the article thing is here: http://www.albaniac.com/index.php?op...d=69&Itemid=37

Keri · 09-20-2006, 06:19 AM

Wowza! Aph you have surpassed yourself!

I love her hair there... all wild and untamed. Thank you!

Note: *If* anyone is thinking of posting this on another site / forum please have the courtesy to credit Aphrodite with the excellent find

**eliza'snumber1fan** · 09-20-2006, 06:26 AM

thanks aph

great picture,eliza looks stunning

Aphrodite · 09-20-2006, 06:26 AM

You're very welcome, Keri. I was quite surprised to have found it myself! I always manage to find everything *but* what I'm looking for when I do google searches. It looks like it was probably taken back when she visited before because she has that same prop in her hands.

I love everything about the picture. The wild and black hair, the black jacket, the smoky eyes. I wish I was that paddle!

09-20-2006, 06:32 AM

I love that picture!! it looks from the same shoot as the one in your picture Aphrodite

She looks like she's gonna stab someone with that instrument lol
she probably had a flash back of playing Faith

thanks everyone

BTW isnt it Super Model Albania 2006

(it says 2005)

Keri · 09-20-2006, 06:47 AM

LOL, good point. I'm obviously stuck somewhere last year

Thanks LadyDay.

09-20-2006, 07:04 AM

Thanks Aph

Thats definately from the same shoot as your sig. Reminds me a little of that shoot she did for Entertainment Weekly a few years ago....

09-20-2006, 07:12 AM

your welcome Keri

Since i'm bored im trying to transelate that article Aphrodite posted.
Its not easy cuz i cant seem to find a translation site that does a whole text. so i'll just do a few words.

So far i've got the word "çifteli" (dont ask me to pronounce it lol)

anyway the translation said "two-chord musical instrument". So that's probably that thing she's holding in the pictures.

Well i'm off learning some Albanian :P

Another piece of news we missed

Quote:

Hollywood star Eliza Dushku will make a special appearance at the 10th Anniversary Awards Dinner of the National Albanian American Council (NAAC) in New York City on Friday, September 8, to pay tribute to NAAC’s work and the accomplishments of the Albanian-American community, according to an official statement issued by the organization.

The NAAC exclusive gala, to be held at the prestigious Cipriani in midtown Manhattan, will mark the first appearance by Dushku at an Albanian-American function. One of Hollywood’s fastest rising stars, Dushku is of Albanian descent and has just recently completed a high-profile tour of Albania and Kosova where she met with artists, political figures, and various officials.

Dushku has constantly made the American public aware of her Albanian origin and is becoming increasingly visible as an advocate of Albanian-related issues.

As part of her special appearance at NAAC’s Anniversary Awards Dinner, Dushku will lead a host of other celebrated names who will grace the evening with their appearance and/or performances – including: Valbona Coba, model/actress; Mariza Ikonomi, pop singing sensation; Lindita Lole Mezini, accomplished soprano diva; Eralda Hitaj, Miss Albania and other surprise guests.

Dushku’s career began with the lead role of Alice, opposite Juliette Lewis in the film That Night. In 1993, Dushku landed a role as Pearl alongside Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio in This Boy's Life. The following year, she played the teenage daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis in True Lies. She would also have parts as Paul Reiser's daughter in Bye-Bye, Love, as Cindy Johnson with Halle Berry and Jim Belushi in Race the Sun.

Dushku took time off from acting to finish her junior and senior years of high school, and enrolled at George Washington University in Washington, DC and Suffolk University in Boston, where her mother serves as professor of government and previously served as dean of the campus in Dakar, Senegal.

Eliza is working on a new project with her father to help Camp Hale, a summer camp for innercity Boston boys, where the Dushku family is closely involved in with the Eliza Dushku Foundation.

The 10th Anniversary Awards Dinner will pay tribute to Jessen-Petersen with the NAAC’s Hands of Hope Awards for his historic role in enhancing the lives of the Albanian people in the Balkans, and for his outstanding contribution towards Kosova’s independence. Also, Bruno Selimaj will receive NAAC’s Lifetime Achievement Award. Previous honorees include President Bill Clinton, Secretaries of State James Baker and Madeleine Albright, Senator Bob Dole and other dignitaries.

Among the dignitaries that will be present at this year’s dinner are Rosemarie DiCarlo, Assistant Deputy Secretary of State; Lutfi Haziri, Deputy Prime Minister Kosova; Fatmir Meidu, Minister of Defense Albania; Veton Surroi, Ora Party, Kosova; Congressman Eliot Engel; Ambassador William Walker; Ahmet Shala, Kosova Trust Agency.

NAAC invites you to attend this important event where tribute will be paid to numerous individuals who have worked tirelessly for the advancement of the Albanian people
