Why Billie From Sex/Life Looks So Familiar

Towards the beginning of Sarah Shahi's career she had numerous guest roles in several shows, including "Dawson's Creek," "Reba," "ER," and "Supernatural." In the Jennifer Garner spy thriller series "Alias," she played Jenny, the young and talented newspaper intern who was in love with Will Tipin (Bradley Cooper) a local reporter. Unfortunately for the young intern, Will only had eyes for his best friend and secret double agent Sydney Bristow. In 2007, Shahi appeared in another small role in "Rush Hour 3" as a rich girl named Zoe who is pursued by Detective Carter (Chris Tucker). 

That same year she also had a role on HBO's "The Sopranos," in the Season 6 episode "Kennedy and Heidi," which aired in 2007. 

Her character, Sonya Aragon, is portrayed as a college student who also works as a stripper in Las Vegas. Sonya spends a weekend with the show's protagonist Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) after the death of Tony's protégé Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli). As Tony grieves, he and Sonya indulge in psychedelics (peyote, to be precise), and have a winning gambling streak which ends as they watch the sunrise at Nevada's Red Rock Canyon.
