going off what aubrey said about her being sweet, bar rafaeli helps out with a lot of charities. i met her in person and she seems like a total sweetie and not at all in a fake way. shes rly outgoing, funny, and open about who she is as a person. her accent is really cute too. and, face it, shes drop dead gorgeous. any guy would be lucky to have her.

Actually, she’s 5’8 1/2. And the average height for runway models is 5’9-5’11. They rarely take girls 6 feet or taller. So yes, she’s short for the standards. Then again, Kate Moss is only 5’6 and she’s one of the wealthiest and most successful supermodels in the world. Bar has long legs though, so she gives the illusion of being taller than she really is.

You also have to give her credit, she started advertising when she was just a baby. It’s hard to go from a child model (which requires less) to an older model. So what if she’s a couple inches short? Marissa Miller’s only 5’8 and Selita Ebanks is only 5’7, and they both do runway.

And it’s not ALL about height and body. I’ve been in the modeling world for five years now, and the business doesn’t want just “pretty”, they want something unique and different. Look at Gisele Bundchen, Cintia Dicker, etc. and you’ll see how their features are unique compared to more “steriotypical pretty girl looks.”

Plus, Bar’s a sweet person. Something that’s very rare in the fashion industry. Leo’s a lucky man =]

Sorry shes pretty but shes no Bundchen! And shes not even tall enough to be a runway model! Shes like 5’7 max; I saw her in person and i towered over her! Every fashion model i dated is like 5’11. SHes pretty, dont get me wrong; but def. not Super-model pretty. Leo—dont lower your standards to raise someone elses!
