Bar Refaeli to present X Factor Israel
Bar Refaeli has been confirmed as the host of the Israeli edition of television show ‘The X Factor’. Following repeated rumours on the subject, the 27 year old Israeli supermodel is to present the show alongside a panel of judges, including singers Rami Fortis, Ivri Lider and Moshe Peretz, and has signed a contract believed to be worth one million NIS with production company Reshet TV.
Refaeli is no stranger to headlines, both domestic and international, having appeared in a high-profile advert during the 2013 Super Bowl and also courting controversy in her home country by donning a Santa suit on Instagram last December.
The series will debut in Israel via Reshet Broadcasting this autumn.
