Isla Fisher has revealed that she was forced to drop a common Aussie trait in order to help her achieve success in Hollywood as an actress - swearing.
The Australian star, who grew up in Perth, has opened up about the differences between her home country and Hollywood while speaking to the Daily Telegraph.
She confessed that she’s been making an effort to try and cut down on using bad language recently after her latest role made her slip back into her old Aussie habit.
“I am working on my swearing,” Fisher said. “I actually had managed to break the habit of swearing because it’s actually frowned upon in Hollywood.”
She confessed that while swearing is common place in Australia, those within Hollywood tend to clutch at their pearls in response.
“It is not given the gravitas that it is in Australia where you can get kind of in macho circles taken seriously with a bit of a swear word, or at least around my brothers when I was younger, you got credit for it after we saw Eddie Murphy’s Raw and then the stand-up tour,” she explained.
Fisher is currently starring in Wolf Like Me, where she plays a woman who falls in love after a chance meeting, who also just so happens to be a werewolf.
“My character Mary swears all the time. I have so much dialogue and basically I was just swearing all day, every day,” added the actress. “That’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it, that is why I have a filthy gutter tone.”

Meanwhile, in October, Fisher said that Australians should feel “shame” over the result of the Voice to parliament referendum.
Following the result, Australian actress Fisher took to social media to blast those who opted to vote against the proposition. Fisher shared a picture of a news article on Instagram and captioned the post: “Day of shame for Australia”.
Her post proved to be divisive among her followers, with many rushing to echo her sentiment and express their shock and disappointment at the result, while others hit back at the star for shaming voters.
