Sports Illustrated's annual swimsuit issue recently hit newsstands and this year's cover model, Bar Refaeli, is lighting up the Buzz. The drop-dead stunner is absolutely huge in Search. Ready or not, Refaeli-mania is upon us. Here's a primer on what you need to know...
Is she single?
Doubtlessly, this will be the first question asked by males, aged 13 to 99. Alas, Ms. Refaeli is off the market, and frankly, you have no shot. She's currently dating Hollywood A-lister Leonardo DiCaprio. Interestingly, rumor has it that the Titanic star campaigned to get his special lady on the cover. The men of the world thank you for your dedication, Mr. DiCaprio.
Where is she from?
Is she an alien from the planet Ogle? Was she genetically created by an elite crew of Maxim scientists? Neither, actually. Ms. Refaeli is the first Israeli model to grace SI's cover. In an interview with Time magazine, the model revealed that while she can't participate in the upcoming Israeli elections, she'd probably vote for Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni.
How long has she been a model?
Proud of yourself because you were bagging groceries at 15? Big whoop. Ms. Refaeli had her first modeling gig when she was 8 months old. The ad was for a baby bib, and in the Time interview, Ms. Refaeli says that it still airs on TV in her native land.
Does she "act"?
It seems like a near certainty: Pose on Sports Illustrated's cover in a bikini (or less) and you're guaranteed an acting career. Kathy Ireland, Elle Macpherson, Paulina Porizkova, Gisele Bündchen, Tyra Banks... The list goes on, but is Bar going to be on it? Yep. According to IMDb, she's set to star in a "psychological suspense drama-thriller" in which a doctor becomes obsessed with a beautiful patient. You'll never guess who Bar plays.
