Bar Refaeli Flaunts Her Bikini Body For a New Sexy Cover

Bar Refaeli flashed a sexy smile and showed off her famous curves in a black bikini for the September cover of Maxim.

Bar Refaeli flashed a sexy smile and showed off her famous curves in a black bikini for the September cover of Maxim. She tops the magazine's annual Hot 100 List and happily chatted with the publication in addition to posing for an accompanying spread. Bar placed third in our annual bikini bracket, just shy of this year's winner, Sofia Vergara, and our runner-up, Halle Berry. Bar's fit frame is often the subject of photo shoots, but last week she played photographer and snapped some photos of Olympic swimmers Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte. She joined rumored boyfriend Shaun White in London at the Games; however, when she spoke with the magazine, she maintained that men rarely talk to her. Here's more from Bar's interview:

  • Bar on her favorite body part: "My stomach is hard, and I'm very proud of it. I still eat, though. To me that's one of the best things in life."
  • Bar on her Twitter obsession: "I love to tweet. I'm in a battle with myself to get more followers. I even make bets with myself on when I'm going to reach what number. I tweet in English and Hebrew because I'll get lots of messages saying, "Yo, start talking Hebrew! Talk to us in our own language!"
  • Bar on the most important thing men should know about women: "If you can't understand them, just give them a hug. That always works."
  • Bar on the idea of signing up for JDate: "Maybe if I'm still single when I'm 40, but not for now. I'm not even 30! I think I'll be fine."
