a long way from
kissing girls on

we wouldn’t

a full-blown

Not the kind

a body that makes

What’s the geek

show (Aaron
Sorkin’s The
Newsroom), a movie
(Steven Soderbergh’s Magic
Mike), and,
hope fully, an
appearance in our

stuck on the

Bar
Refaeli
It was decreed that in
the year 2012 there
would be an election
of tremen dous
wonder and import,
celebrating all that
is good and beautiful
in the world. Millions
of votes were cast
by you, the citizens
of the Democratic
Republic of Maxim,
and when the polls
were closed, a victor
was crowned. She
puts the “promise” in
Promised Land—all
hail your No. 1 for
2012, Bar Refaeli!
“I am shocked that
among all these
beautiful ladies, I’m
No. 1,” Bar says of
her incumbency.
“ Thank you so much
for voting for me!
I’m truly honored.
This is a title I will
never forget.”
So God bless
America, God bless
the Maxim man, and
God bless Israel for
being the fertile soil
from which such
hotness grows. Keep
your eyes peeled for
Bar’s upcoming cover
shoot—it’ll be one no
man on Earth will
ever forget!
