Just another video of Bar Refaeli doing what she does best… Need I say more ?

Refaeli says about the under.me brand, “I feel I look my best when I’m comfortable. Especially when it comes to underwear. My underwear is the clothing article closest to my body, and as such, I want it to complement it and not steal the show. There is nothing better than simple, comfortable, quality clothing.”

Esther Petrack, made famous in the US as the first observant Jewish contestant on “America’s Next Top Model” in 2010-2011, is now a soldier in the IDF Armored Corps.

“My nails are no longer what they were, but the girls in the course are nicer than those on the show.”

It’s a well-known fact: history repeats itself, first as tragedy, and then as bad French-Israeli co-production of a B-movie starring Bar Refaeli. The supermodel and underwear enthusiast will join (Hebrew-only) a cast of Israel’s finest actors to bring the 2010 assassination of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai to the big screen.

And if you thought that the real thing was comical, what with all them Fletch-like disguises and poorly forged passports, just wait until you see The Spear: according to the Israeli press, the film will revolve around a band of Mossad agents who are shocked to realize that the assassination they’ve been planning had already been carried out by a team of four unknown professionals. It’s like The Fugitive meets Trading Places!

Knesset passes bill that forbids use of models with BMI below 18.5 in commercial advertisements. MK Danon: Knockout in the war against anorexia

The Knesset passed into law a bill that bans the use of underweight models in Israeli advertising, Ynet reported Monday night.

According to the law, models with a Body Mass Index (BMI) below 18.5 would not be able to appear in advertisements. Moreover, any advertisement in which computer editing was used to make a model thinner, would have to say so clearly.

The law does not apply to non-commercial advertisements.

Knesset Member Rachel Adatto (Kadima), who submitted the bill along with MK Danny Danon (Likud), said “today the plenum started a revolution in the way beauty is perceived in Israel. This law shatters the ideal of anorexic beauty, which served as a model for the country’s young people, who tried to imitate this impossible illusion and suffered from eating disorders as a result.

“This law will send a message to teenagers that being thin is acceptable, but slimness has its limits, and there is such a thing as too thin,” she said.

MK Danon said the law constitutes a “major breakthrough towards eradicating eating disorders in Israel” and a “knockout in the war against anorexia.”

According to Danon, the law also conveys a clear message to modeling agencies – that “life is more important than money.”

The MK said he was approached by members of the US Congress who are considering promoting a similar law.
