As you have heard by now, Barack Obama was elected president at 11:01 p.m. Tuesday, November 4th, 2008.

E! News has learned that Courteney Cox and hubby David Arquette hosted a Barack Obama victory party Tuesday night at their Beverly Hills home.

Sources say that Jennifer Aniston, Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher were among those in attendance, and that the Cristal was flowing liberally (pardon the pun) as Arquette made the rounds with his guests.

Last night Isla attended the 15th Annual Elle Magazine’s Women in Hollywood Tribute. She was there to be honored by Courteney Cox. She looked classic and chic with her hair straight and in a black dress with matching clutch and heels. Let’s just say it: how amazing does Ms. Fisher look! Absolutely stunning – and this is her first time on the red carpet since February!

The first few images have been uploaded. Many more to be added throughout the day so check back for updates!

Again, congratulations to Miss Fisher for this wonderful honor! We will add coverage from the event, as usual. From E! Online:

Actress Nicole Kidman will be honored at Elle magazine’s annual Women in Hollywood Tribute and will receive her award from legendary Hollywood starlet Shirley MacLaine, according to E! Online.

The October 15 ceremony will be the 15th annual event and will celebrate eight of Hollywood’s most popular and powerful leading ladies.

Actress Isla Fisher, whose film credits include Wedding Crashers, will accept an award from television star Courtney Cox. Actress Salma Hayek will also be honored at the event and will be awarded by her best friend, Mia Maestro.

Actress Jane Fonda will also receive a tribute from Kerry Washington, her former costar in the New York City reading of the play, Necessary Targets.

Yesterday I asked for Shopaholic stills… And today we’ve got ‘em!

Check out the first seven stills from the movie and an interesting article from USA Today regarding the movie right below.

“I literally jumped up and down when I heard about the movie. I would have been the first one in the cinema even if I weren’t involved. I can’t tell you the number of women who have told me, ‘I am Becky Bloomwood.’ She is humble, sweet, optimistic and gets really excited about things.”

Confessions of a Shopaholic appears to be a breezy romp through Manhattan’s high-end store aisles as its first theatrical trailer premieres Friday, before showings of Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist.

Especially with accident-prone Becky Bloomwood, the insolvent heroine of Sophie Kinsella’s best-selling chick-lit series, leading the “charge-it!” charge.

But when the comedy opens Feb. 13, with Isla Fisher (Wedding Crashers) as the irrepressible spendthrift, it could also serve as a cautionary tale, given that the dreary economic climate isn’t about to brighten soon.

“The consumerism in the movie kind of puts it out there,” says producer Jerry Bruckheimer, who’s taking a break from such manly fare as the Pirates of the Caribbean films for more pink-hued pursuits. “Credit companies gladly will send you a number of cards, you get into debt, and then they come after you.”

Mommies with new babies at home Nicole Kidman, Halle Berry, Salma Hayek and Isla Fisher are among the eight women who will be honored by Elle magazine next month at the 15th Annual Women in Hollywood Tribute.

Other honorees include Jane Fonda, Sigourney Weaver, Anne Hathaway and Catherine Hardwicke, director of the upcoming big screen adaptation of Twilight.

The festivities happen Oct. 6 at a VIP dinner at the Four Seasons hotel in Beverly Hills.

Women in Hollywood was started by movie magazine Premiere, but was taken over by Elle when it folded last year.

I have no idea if there is any truth to this article, especially as Isla and Sacha are such private people. But since there is not a whole lot going on in the Isla world at the moment, I thought I’d post anyhow.

Sacha Baron Cohen and fiancee Isla Fisher have been forced to postpone their wedding over religious issues, MailOnline has learned.

The Hollywood-based couple, who welcomed a daughter last year, originally planned to tie the knot later this summer.

But they have decided to delay the nuptials because Isla, 32, has yet to convert to the Ali G star’s faith of Judaism.

A source said: ‘Isla was supposed to spend her time after giving birth hard at work on her Torah studies, and that’s gone far slower than expected.

‘It’s very much frustrated her future in-laws, especially Sacha’s parents, who were really hoping for a wedding this summer.’

The source added: ‘Right now there’s no wedding date set because Isla hasn’t fully converted yet, and even though she’s working at it part time, she’s are far from being close to complete with her studies.’

Here’s photos from the set of Shopaholic on May 4. Right now Isla filming in Miami Beach, Florida and she has her cute little Olive with her.

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:

• Isla Fisher’s Definite rise to success
• Funny girl
• Isla Fisher’s latest a labour of love
• Isla Fisher Falls For Ryan

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!”

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.
