Alert the Wedding Crashers! Sacha Baron Cohen/Isla Fisher on Hold

posted by Esther Kustanowitz | 11:00am Friday July 11, 2008

boratandislapicforic.jpgTrue, the wedding had been planned for this summer. But this week a London tabloid reported that actor/comedian/rabble-rouser Sacha Baron Cohen and “Wedding Crashers” actress Isla Fisher are postponing their nuptials until Fisher has had a chance to learn more about the Jewish faith:

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 far from being close to completing her studies.’

As one might predict, this is leading to a bit of tension between Isla and her prospective in-laws. How does the artist formerly known as Borat cope with the stress? He throws himself into filming for his new “Bruno” movie. And as for la Isla bonita? She’s finishing up “Confessions of a Shopaholic,” and according to reports, is committed to the relationship, even if there are challenging moments, the source observes:

‘No matter what Sacha’s mother throws at her, Isla isn’t going to be scared away from the relationship or the family. You really get the sense that her devotion to Sacha is total, even if she’s stalled a little bit on her Jewish studies. She loves sharing her life with this guy.’

Baby Olive could not be reached for comment, but rumor has it that she (through a statement issued by her publicist) wished her parents “very nice…much success.”

it sounds kind of silly to me –just because she did not convert to the jewish faith he is putting off the marriage? and whocares what the in-laws think –she is not marrying them–i would run away, very fast from this one—my husband and both have different views on God and salvation-but it never shadows over us-everyone has their own way of praying –nobody should tell you how to worship

It is because of alot of faith believing jewish people will not marry unless their spouses convert to the jewish faith.

I do not like the anti-semitic undertones of this story or the comments made upon it. If there love is strong it doesn’t matter what their background is – I am sure she has her own set of culteral pressures.
