Bar Refaeli Might Be 2008 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition Cover Model

She’d actually be the hottest cover model SI has had in awhile. More pictures of Bar Refaeli.

Israeli model Bar Refaeli, who is Leonardo DiCaprio’s main squeeze, may be the cover girl for Sports Illustrated’s 2008 swimsuit issue next February. That’s the buzz in the N.Y. Post, anyway, because she was in Israel last week being photographed for the mag by fashion photog Raphael Mazzucco, and because Refaeli (she sometimes spells it Rafaeli, it seems) is apparently the only model he’s shooting in more than one country.
She, and all the rest of this year’s crop of babes, will be in front of his lens this month in the Virgin Islands.
