Isla Fisher was born to Scottish parents in the Middle Eastern country of Oman. Her family moved to Australia in the early 1980s. From a young age Isla showed an interest in both acting and writing. At nine years old she was appearing in Australian TV commercials. She landed some small parts in the Australian TV series "Bay Cove" (1993) (aka "Bay City"). This led to a bigger part in the series "Paradise Beach" (1993). When that show ended she landed a role in the long-running Australian soap opera "Home and Away" (1988).
Australian actress Isla Fisher was a teen sensation in the nighttime soaps of her native land before heading to the U.S. shores, determined to become a big screen comedienne. The vivacious redhead did her duty with a number of underwritten "object of desire" roles in low-brow comedies but established her name with a scene-stealing supporting role as a wanton bridesmaid in the mega blockbuster "Wedding Crashers" (2005). Her charming turn opposite Ryan Reynolds in the surprise low-budget romantic comedy hit "Definitely, Maybe" (2008) led to the actress' headlining role in the chick-lit based "Confessions of a Shopaholic" (2009), where her energy, sass and laser quick comic timing heralded the arrival of a fresh new leading lady.
