Isla Fisher's willing to confess things about her much anticipated movie, Confessions of a Shopaholic, which opened today, but she keeps mum about motherhood. At least when it comes to the press. At a recent junket for her latest release, when asked if she had read the book the movie was based on and how she balances the challenges of motherhood and career, the actress said:

Motherhood is my favorite topic in my personal life, but I don’t discuss it professionally just because I want my daughter to have privacy and a normal life. Yes, I was a huge fan of the books. I had read them all long before I heard about the project, and when I heard about the project and that Jerry Bruckheimer was producing it, obviously who I was a huge fan of, I didn’t think in my wildest dreams, that I would even get a meeting, let alone get the role. I literally still cannot believe I got the role. It’s very exciting for me.

No Baby Talk for Isla Fisher

Isla Fisher is a celebrity we loved while pregnant and continue to adore as a new mum. The Australian born talent stole the screen as Vince Vaughn's lady love in The Wedding Crashers, though it definitely was not her first gig as an actress. Her latest blockbuster, Definitely, Maybe is being released while she is already back to work taping Confessions of a Shopaholic.

But don't let this busy mama's work schedule fool you. To her, the priorities in life are her relationship to funny man, Sasha Baron Cohen and her baby girl, Olive. So sacred in fact, that she refuses to discuss them or anything pertaining to them.

In a press interview with USA Today, the red–headed beauty said:

Motherhood is my favorite topic in my personal life, but I never talk about it publicly only because I don't want to draw any attention to her. I want to protect her.

As a commoner, I feel the same way - more than happy to oblige my friends and family with my babe's antics but when it comes to strangers, I like to keep a lil distance.

What do you think about Isla Fisher's reluctance to share Olive with the world?
