这张美国影坛小天后“超级购物”的新闻图片，很容易让人联想到中国2006贺岁影片《购物狂》。虽然与张柏芝饰演的芳芳相比，小天后林赛·洛韩还没到购物成瘾的份儿，但狂轰乱炸的媒体新闻，已经把“购物狂”的帽子戴在了她头上。

请看外电相关报道：Lindsay Lohan has hit back at claims she is undergoing hypnotherapy to overcome a $1 million a year shopping addiction¹. An American magazine recently alleged² the actress is a shopaholic, who is struggling to control her habit of spending as much as $100,000 in just one day.

报道中的shopaholic就是我们常说的“购物狂”，如果联系上下句，您会发现前句的“shopping addiction”已经解释了它所有的内涵。

Shopaholic是个合成词，由shop（购物）和后缀-aholic构成，-aholic（-oholic）指“one that is addicted³ to or compulsively in need of”（对某种需求有瘾的“强迫症”患者），照此构词法，我们可以得到其它一系列单词，如chocoholic（巧克力狂）； workaholic（工作狂）；alcoholic（酒鬼）。
