After giving birth to daughter Olive almost a year and a half ago, it was up to Isla Fisher to lose the 60 pounds of pregnancy weight before filming the much-anticipated (by me, anyway ...) upcoming Confessions of a Shopaholic movie. But she says she's lucky because "I was blessed with good genes because I had a really bad attitude towards exercise - like stopping when it hurt or got boring and having a cup of tea and a slice of cake. Apparently you are not supposed to do that in Hollywood."

Thank goodness, then, for Spanx, those miracle undergarments that tone and trim in all the right places. Of the popular product she told reporters: "I swear my waist now is skinnier than it was when I was pregnant -- how do they do that?" She's not alone -- mega celebs like Oprah and Eva Longoria-Parker owe allegiance to Spanx too. And I'm with them.

So, ladies, us common folk aren't the only ones who've made Spanx a regular part of out wardrobe. Nice to know, isn't it?
