A Star Transformed
Eliza Coupe turned heads on the red carpet at the Hollywood premiere of Netflix’s The Residence, marking nearly 15 years since Scrubs came to an end.
The Scrubs star stunned at The Egyptian Theater in a shimmering gold dress, paired with knee-high black suede boots and a draped black coat. Her dramatic smokey eye and nude lips completed the bold, sophisticated look.
Coupe first captured audiences’ attention in Scrubs, where her portrayal of the blunt yet endearing Dr. Mahoney earned her a dedicated fanbase. Following the show’s conclusion in 2010, she solidified her comedic chops with the role of Jane Kerkovich-Williams in Happy Endings, a performance that further cemented her status as a television favorite.
Now, Coupe is embracing new creative frontiers. In The Residence, she steps into the role of Margery Bay Bix, a key player in the White House staff residence, in a mystery drama helmed by Paul William Davies. Starring alongside Orange Is the New Black’s Uzo Aduba, the series offers a fresh, behind-the-scenes perspective on the intricate relationships within the First Family’s household.
Off-screen, Coupe’s personal evolution has been just as transformative as her professional one. She has openly shared her journey toward holistic well-being, including a deep connection to spirituality and self-discovery, often reflecting on time spent in Joshua Tree, California.
Her highly anticipated book, Coyote Woman and the Odyssey of Soul Contracts, dives deep into self-discovery, healing, and personal evolution, offering a fresh perspective on spiritual growth. Excited about its release, she took to Instagram, teasing fans with, "My book… coming soooooooon!!”
Beyond her work on-screen and in writing, Coupe has been vocal about her wellness transformation. She embraced a vegan lifestyle after struggling with food intolerances, opting for a more holistic approach to health. “I'm trying to heal that part of myself and also handle my physical issues naturally by putting the best things into my body,” she shared in a 2017 interview.
With a thriving career, a commitment to wellness, and an ever-expanding creative repertoire, Coupe continues to prove that reinvention is an art she has mastered.
