January 16, 201015 yr Sorry for ignorance, but if anyone knows is there a more pictures from theese fashion shows? Thanks in advance
January 16, 201015 yr There was a small thing about bar on E! news saying that the army is putting a boycot on bar because she didn't serve. its kinda pointless..
January 16, 201015 yr ^Yeah, I heardd. They're not gonna buy the products that she promotes and all that shit..
January 16, 201015 yr Despite my earlier posts on the subject, I think this is kind of silly. Like closing the barn door after the horse has already escaped. If what Bar did is so unconscionable, change the rules so that no one else can get away with it again. Problem solved. Move on.
January 16, 201015 yr The latest Bar boycott attempt isn't about her not serving in the army. This time it's because she's trying to apply for status as a non-Israeli/foreign-resident to avoid paying taxes.
January 17, 201015 yr She isn't trying to avoid taxes all together. Non-Resident means she'd pay a different tax percentage based on the time she spends in the country and how much property she owns, which I believe is little to none. The boycott however, is still about her avoiding military service, as the above article states.
January 17, 201015 yr Bar Refaeli asks for tax relief Supermodel submits request to pay her taxes abroad, saying 'center of my life is no longer in Israel' ...According to estimates, Refaeli earned about $2 million in the past two years, for which she was meant to pay income tax of more than NIS 3.5 million (47% tax in 2008 and 46% in 2009). In addition, she was forced to pay national insurance in Israel, and because the tax ceiling was removed last year, for each dollar Refaeli earned she was meant to pay 12 more cents for national insurance and health insurance in Israel – in other words, an extra NIS 250,000 ($68,000). ...http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3835369,00.html
January 17, 201015 yr like she's the biggest problem they have so agree. and I don't get what the big deal is that Bar is applying for non-resident tax status. Maybe she plans on living outside and certainly working outside of Israel now so she has every right to do that - I'm sure an other Israeli citizen can do that without an uproar or criticism. It's like they want to make an example out of her or make her life miserable. Thanks for that new SI clip -she looks great!
