In his latest film “Blood Diamond”, Leonardo DiCaprio is in pursuit of a 100 carat conflict diamond worth US$4 million. In real life, Leo’s buying legit diamonds for Israeli super model Bar Refaeli. Nicccce!!

Refaeli is a leading model in Israel, but the secret of her recent international success, is not such a secret. Isn’t that right Leo? Not to take anything away from Refaeli or her genetic skills, hell, she wooed DiCaprio from Giselle, but dating a Hollywood A-lister certainly boosts your status. Of course there’s nothing wrong with that. If you’ve got it, flaunt it, right? Or shake what your mama gave you? No? How about, looks aren’t everything- that’s just something ugly people say…

Anyway, we should give Refaeli’s her cred. She’s getting big bucks for photo shoots with ELLE magazine, Samsung, Victoria Secret, and others, and oh yeah, she’s frickin’ hot. Plus, she’s earned the distinct pleasure of having her life dissected and photographed by gossip columnists and stalkarazzi … congrats!

This is cool though, according to a recent survey reported in YNET, Israeli’s would like to have Refaeli on their bank notes. I guess we’re tiring of the maternal gaze of Golda? Or perhaps this is some sort of scheme to keep the shekel up? I know, that’s terrible, I’m sorry.

Anyway, it seems that the Tourism Ministry has gotten Refaeli to do some pro-bono advertising to get tourists to Israel. Nice work Mr. Herzog, you sir, are a true patriot.
