Isla Fisher Plays Big Spender

When Isla Fisher started thinking about her wardrobe needs for Confessions of a Shopaholic, she had one important request for famed costume designer Patricia Field.

She wanted her character - the clothing-addicted Rebecca Bloomwood - to wear heels so high that they threw her off balance.

"I think there's nothing funnier than a comedic character tottering and the impracticality of wearing something that clearly doesn't fit her and is uncomfortable," says Fisher blithely.

"But because she's a shopaholic, she has to have it."
This 33-year-old Australian with the flaming hair and the mischievous disposition has a knack for ferreting out the essential absurdities of life. Take the fan dance she performs in the movie, which opens Feb. 13.

"It's always been a comic dream of mine to attempt to seduce a man doing a dance that's actually repulsive," she declares sweetly.
