Employee of the Month: Eddie Cahill

November 18, 2000

TV's Boy Toy du jour, Eddie Cahill, is making Friends and influencing casting directors. He's played Carrie's bisexual beau on Sex and the City and is currently jugling roles as Rachel's hunky assitant on Friends and, starting November 29, Molly's troubled boyfriend on Felicity.

"It's all happened so quickly," syas 22-year-old Eddie Cahill, who had acted in only two New York theater productions before landing the Sex role last summer. "I'm playing opposite beautiful women constantly; I think I can retire."

That's unlikely, considering that his five-episode Friends stint as the object of Rachel's affection, Tag Jones ("It's a porn name, that's my take onit," Cahill says), may be expanded. Cahill insists that he's much more down to earth than any of these characters. "I'm a real homebody. I like to cook and spend time with my friends and family. I even clean sometimes." Hmm, maybe he's be a better match for Monica. — Anabel Vered
