The Lookout Wins & USA Today Photoshoot

Congratulations to the cast and crew of The Lookout for winning Best First Feature yesterday at the Independent Spirit Awards! :love:

To celebrate the occasion, I’ve added Isla’s complete USA Today photoshoot in the gallery. The photos are very simplistic and soft and she looks nothing short of stunning! Look at her big brown eyes, how beautiful!

Shopaholic On Set Pics & Release Date News

I have updated the gallery with two sets of Shopaholic on set pics, taken in New York City in the past few days. Enjoy Isla’s quirky fashion in these cute shots!

Some exciting news:

Now that the writer’s strike has finally come to close, Disney has announced its feature releases through 2009 and early 2010. Disney has decided to make Isla Fisher-Hugh Dancy romantic comedy Confessions of a Shopaholic its 2009 Valentine’s Day release.

So unfortunately the film will not be release late this year unlike earlier reported but at least it should be pretty big same time next year.

New Articles

I’ve added four new articles/interviews with our lovely redhead, which include some quotes about co-star Ryan Reynolds, and how much Isla liked to work with him. She also talks about her family in one of the article and tells us that she likes bands like Oasis and Nirvana! One of the article contained a new photoshoot picture so click on the thumbnail next to here to view it :blush:

Some fun quotes:

“Everybody is in love with Ryan Reynolds,” Isla Fisher told me. “I just think if you open the dictionary and look up the world ‘smoldering,’ you should see his name. He’s gorgeous.”

“And also being kind of little and having red hair, you get teased a lot, and making jokes is a way to turn it around. I don’t mind making a fool of myself: let’s just put it that way!”

“I still write. I’d love to write more trashy chick-lit. At the moment I just rewrite my own lines, which probably annoys most directors – though, thankfully not Adam Brooks!”

Cosmopolitan – March 2008

Miss Isla is featured in the March issue of US Cosmopolitan. Thanks to my dear friend Mycah we now have a scan of Isla’s page. It has a few quote snippets plus a gorgeous shot (which we have seen before). Here’s my favorite quote from it:

“Comedy has always been important in my family. If you got in a good joke at the dinner table, it meant more than almost anything else.”

Definitely, Maybe Playing in North America

I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine’s Day and that the fans are enjoying Definitely, Maybe, which opened in North America yesterday. :happy:

As earlier reported, Isla appeared on Live with Regis and Kelly yesterday. If anyone has a video of this, please send it in. Thank you so much in advance! I am not sure if Isla was on The Today Show on Monday after all. A friend taped it but apparently our girl was nowhere to be seen. So do let us know if you did catch Isla.

Definitely, Maybe New York Premiere Photos

As earlier reported, Isla and the Definitely, Maybe cast attended the world premiere of their movie yesterday in New York City. This is Isla’s first red carpet event since giving birth to Olive and she certainly looked amazing in her little black dress and tights. I love her hair like this, long and curly. Va-va-voom! 76 pictures have been uploaded from this event.

Edit: 41 more HQ photos added!

ComingSoon.net & USA Today Articles

Check out these two new features on Miss Fisher, from ComingSoon.net and USA Today:

Isla Fisher on Definitely, Maybe
‘Maybe’ star Isla Fisher is a new mom, but definitely don’t ask!

Both are great reads, especially USA Today. Isla talks about Hollywood’s body fascism, her love for Juno and privacy. It seems that every single article pays special emphasis on Isla’s decision not to talk about Olive and sort of portrays her like she was being rude about it. I, for one, definitely respect her decision to not discuss her baby and private life in the press.

“I’m choosy, definitely,” Fisher says. “I’ve made a lot of product in my life that I’m not proud of. I’ve had to work. Now that I’m fortunate enough to get to choose, I’m fussy. Now, I don’t have to make decisions as much from fear. It’s given me freedom.”

Last but not least, check out this stunning image from the USA Today article on your left.
