Bar Refaeli is considered among the most internationally successful models to come from Israel, alongside models such as Nina Brosh and Michaela Bercu.
The Israeli supermodel, will host the 2019 Eurovision competition, unless something big comes up, you know, like a criminal indictment.
The major televised event, which will be held in Tel Aviv this year to honor Israel’s win last year by singer-songwriter Netta Barzilai, will be co-hosted by Refaeli and three other Israeli talents.
In early January, the Israeli state office informed Refaeli that she is being accused of tax fraud. The supermodel allegedly hid over $8 million between 2005 and 2012, and accepted luxury cars as payment for publicity work that she did not declare for tax purposes.
However Refaeli cannot be charged until she either attends or waives her right to a hearing, at which point she may face charges of perjury and money laundering in addition to tax evasion.
Bar Refaeli looks as good as ever as she posted some recent photos on Instagram.
The Israeli model, 33, displayed her incredible physique in a scanty red two-piece as she enjoyed an idyllic tropical island.

She has already admitted to having a breast augmentation, nose job, Botox and fillers in her quest to resemble Kim Kardashian.
But it seems Married At First Sight's Martha Kalifatidis is still not happy with her appearance, as she looked almost unrecognizable in a selfie shared to Instagram on Tuesday.
The 30-year-old makeup artist posed in the same black bikini she wore on her honeymoon to Michael Brunelli, but the social media version was heavily airbrushed.
In the Instagram photo, Martha's lips appear noticeably plumper and her breasts look larger. She also sports a much darker tan than in real life.
She told Monday's NW magazine: 'I don't have fillers in my lips - but I do have them in other places on my face. And I've had my boobs done.'
"I do Botox but I like to keep it really understated and natural, so I don't like to look like I've had anything done. If you can tell you've had it done, then it's gone wrong," she added.

Speaking to Women's Health, Melanie opened up on the secret to her fabulous figure – and revealed that it takes a lot of hard work and dedication.
While posing naked on the cover of the magazine, she told them: "I work out an average of four times a week – a mixture of weight training, high-intensity boot camp classes, tennis, barre classes and reformer pilates.”
The busy star also spoke about she regained her stunning figure after giving birth.
Melanie added: “I didn’t become really interested in exercise until a few years after having my children. I was broadly happy with my body – I’m still a size 10 – but I loved going to the gym as it gave me a bit of time alone.
"It also gives me more energy, which is important when you have an active, growing family".
This isn't the first bikini clad picture Mel has shared while on her trip, as just a day earlier she posted a snap as she lounged on a picturesque beach in a cream bikini.

The action hero star, Kate Beckinsale. learned a thing or two about keeping an intense fitness regimen after leading vampire flick Van Helsing and helming the Underworld franchise.
She is trained by Gunnar Peterson for the past five years. The British star is dedicated to her workouts. “Anybody I’ve worked with," says Gunnar "seek me out because they know that we’re going to get the work done, it’s going to be safe, it’s going to be as fun as that can be and they’re not going to cut any corners. It keeps them on the straight and narrow."
Last Friday, the 45-year-old actress supported Pete Davidson at his stand-up comedy show in Los Angeles.Though the pair left the venue hand-in-hand and headed back to Davidson’s Santa Monica hotel together, a source close to Beckinsale says her relationship with the Saturday Night Live star, 25, is not likely to go any further — due in part to her failed marriage with Len Wiseman.
“Kate’s not looking to get serious with someone. She was really hurt after her marriage with Len ended,” the source told PEOPLE. “She wants to have fun with guys and date around. She loves the attention from the younger men she dates.”
“It makes her feel good about herself too,” the insider added. “She doesn’t care what people think.”

Hawaii is one of the most idyllic vacation destinations in the world. Millions of people fly to Hawaii to enjoy the arresting volcanic landscape, hospitable locals, and fascinating culture. There are six main islands and several smaller islands. Each island has its own unique character, but all of them offer plenty of opportunities to try water sports.
Here is a quick guide to some of the best water sports on offer in Hawaii.
Surfing - Hawaii is the birthplace of surfing and Duke Kahanamoku, a former Hawaiian beach boy, won several Olympic gold medals in the sport.
There really is no better place if you want to be at one with the ocean. Oahu is the most popular island for surfers. Head to Waimea Bay and Sunset Beach on the north shore or Makaha on the west shore.
Scuba Diving - Hawaii is so remote that you will meet some very unusual marine life below the surface. The waters around Hawaii are known for excellent visibility all year round. There are some world-class dive sites around the Hawaiian Islands.
The Manta Ray Night Dive is one of the most famous. There are lights on the ocean floor, which attract huge quantities of plankton. This, in turn, attracts all kinds of marine life. Manta Rays feed on the plankton and they are unafraid of scuba divers. You can swim among the rays and marvel at their beauty.
Stand-Up Paddleboarding - Stand-up paddleboarding is a popular variation of surfing. Rather than riding a wave, you balance on your board and use a paddle to move along in calmer waters. It's not easy and you need good core strength and a sense of balance, but SUP is fun.
If you are new to the sport, only try stand-up paddleboarding in the company of an experienced instructor. Your instructor will make sure you only head out on the water in an area where it's safe for a novice. There are dangerous currents and hidden reefs off some beaches. You also don't want to end up colliding with a surfer or scuba diver.
Kayaking - Kayaking is a fun way to explore the coastline in the Hawaiian Islands. The Napali Coast is a quieter spot for adventurous kayakers. It takes approximately one day to kayak between Polihale State Park and Haena Beach Park, but the views are well worth your efforts.
If you want to kayak inland, head to the Wailua River. The current is nice and slow, so it's perfect for beginners. It's also the only way into Uluwehi Falls, which is a perfect end to an idyllic trip.
