Washington, Jan 9 : It seems Israeli model Bar Rafaeli doesn't really like being called a "supermodel" as she has turned down the title bestowed to her by saying that it should be used only those for whom it was coined.
It seems Israeli model Bar Rafaeli doesn't really like being called a "supermodel" as she has turned down the title bestowed to her by saying that it should be used only those for whom it was coined.
The 22-year-old model insisted that only the likes of Elle MACpherson, Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell were the original supermodels in the 1990s, and the title should exclusively be used for them.
"I don't even know what a supermodel is. Of course it's nice, it's very flattering, if people want to talk about me like that. But to me, there will only be one group of girls who were supermodels. They were the product of a particular time," Contactmusic quoted her, as saying.
The on/off girlfriend of Leonardo DiCaprio was modesty personified and said that she's just one of the models who were at the same level in their career.
"Now, there are so many girls who are kind of at the same level, and I'm one of them," she said. (ANI)
