She's having fun making Shrek sweat. After she becomes Catwoman, Selina is uninhibited and fears nothing. She's playing with her food before she eats it, so to speak.
You mean why would Wayne not pretend to be a vacuous party boy? Because that's not always he "cover". Batman: Year One and Batman Begins both have Wayne hide by pretending he's a playboy. This film, and other incarnations of the character, have him a be a millionaire CEO, but not need to constantly be the most vapid person on earth as "camouflage". I actually prefer when Wayne uses his corporate influence to be a do-gooder, too.
Doesn't he need cover? No. He doesn't. He presents as happy, a little screwy, a philanthropist, and a prep boy. Nobody's going to go, "Oh, that's definitely Batman!" from that. Shrek would assume Wayne was making a corporate takeover powerplay type move, trying to intimidate him into losing power in the city. Why? Because that's what Shrek would be doing. He probably assumes the scheming worst of people, including Wayne.
