Rayna Russell a pop star who earned her fame under Bill 'Biz' Zarella. Biz hires the Dollhouse to protect Rayna, who was nearly attacked by a stalker during a pyrotechnic malfunction in one of her performances. The pop star eventually grew tired of her life when she realized that her fame would fade in time so she made a deal with her stalker involving her death during a live concert. In reality, Rayna secretly wished to be killed onstage to end her career prematurely and go out with a bang. Jordan saves her from getting shot after the stalker is infuriated with Rayna's introduction of Audra, her #1 fan. He takes Audra hostage and threatened to kill Audra if Rayna didn't come to meet him. The concert shortly ends after the incident and Rayna chooses to wallow in her own problems and remains indifferent with the incident. While practicing in front of a mirror, Jordan confronts Rayna about the incident involving Audra's kidnapping, Jordan decides to take matters into her own hands and initiates a hostage negotiation with the Rayna's stalker. Jordan knocked the starlet out and tied her up, countering the stalker's threat by threatening to kill Rayna unless he released Audra. He called her bluff and she dropped Rayna from a catwalk (unbeknownst to both him and Rayna, who had a lifeline). Rayna's attitude changes saying that she still wanted to live.
