This month we can see more of Bar Refaeli then ever before, and visualize what boyfriend Leonardo DiCaprio sees everyday.The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue profiles 23-year-old Refaeli next week, wearing a string bikini that has become standard attire for SI swimsuit editions.
This cover puts her face and toned body in front of millions of eyeballs, appealing to both men and women, sports fans and fashion critics. This year there are 19 different models throughout the magazine.
Born in Israeli, Refaeli said she knew that photo of her in the water on Canouan Island was the cover shot.
The magazine spends three days shooting each model, starting early in the morning because the light is best at dawn, and have about 10,000 different bathing suits and bikinis to choose from.
In addition to her supermodel career, Bar is trying her hand at movies with the dramatic "Session", written and directed by Haim Bouzaglo. It is a psychological suspense drama-thriller where a psychologist becomes obsessed with one of his patients. The project has a 2009 release date.
