Actress Isla Fisher

Isla Fisher is a young and up-and-coming actress from Australia, born to Scottish parents and currently engaged to the outrageous comedian Sacha Baron Cohen.


She first gained fame in Australia as Shannon Reed on the television serial "Home and Away" in the nineties She has appeared in many films in the past decade, including 2004's I ♥ Huckabees and 2005's Wedding Crashers.

Not all of her films have been favorably received. In 2009 she starred in the comedy Confessions of a Shopaholic as Rebecca Bloomwood, a young woman who works as a financial journalist to support her addiction to shopping. It was released just as the world was going through a recession that resulted from overspending and overconsumption, and suddenly being broke was no laughing matter.
