Bar Refaeli recently made news when she lamented her single status. Everything she said in the interview with Yedioth Ahronot, as related by the Daily News, made her seem not only super relatable, but also shockingly attainable.
Everything, that is, except for the part about how she likes her men “big and strong and famous.”
If that doesn’t sound like the words of a woman who’d just proclaimed her desire to be in a relationship with someone from a warm and loving family and who shares her values, it’s because they weren’t her words.
In fact, the Israeli model was so perturbed by the Daily News piece she tweeted about it.
Just woke up to DailyNews saying I’m looking for a strong FAMOUS guy- what?!?! Where did u get that?? Completely false.

Phew. Now we can continue to like her, and she, in turn, might just end up liking one of us. Then again, she also suggested that being single is not so bad after all.
