So I'm a day late on the whole Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue dropping. But it's never too late to talk about hot models wearing skimpy bikinis. You know this year's issue is going to be good since it has the one and only Bar Rafaeli on the cover. Don't know who that is? You will know a lot more about her when you check out the gallery. She's an Israeli model best known for being Leonardo DiCaprio's girlfriend. Lucky man.

In case you were wondering what makes the lovely Bar cover girl material, the magazine's editor Terry McDonell gave Yahoo News the inside scoop: "The cover has to reflect the athleticism and sexiness of the culture. This photo is modern, her hair and swimsuit look natural. You see her freckles. Her body is amazing and she looks intelligent." Intelligent? Whatever you say... as long as she keeps tugging on that bathing suit bottom. Who needs the rest of the issue when you can look at Bar over and over again in our gallery.
