Israeli Supermodel Bar Paly Talks About Her First Time

CHECK OUT VIDEO OF HER PHOTO SHOOT!

This stunning Israeli is the first thing you’re going to see in this month’s big-screen thriller The Ruins, based on Scott Smith’s bestseller about a pack of friends who find more than just pottery shards on an archaeological dig in Mexico. “I’m in the first scene,” she says, “and nothing good happens to me. That’s all I can say.” Speaking of firsts, Bar revealed a few of her other seminal experiences.

First Kiss
I was a geeky girl who studied a lot, so it didn’t happen until I was 17. This guy I studied theater with asked me to get some burgers and take a walk in the park, and that’s when the kiss came. I don’t think he knew what he was doing.

First Crush
This is embarrassing, but I think Conan O’Brien is hot. I think it’s because he’s funny and quirky. Or maybe it’s the red hair.

First Concert
Garbage came to Israel when I was 16. It was the first time my folks let me go somewhere alone, so I saved up money and went with my friends. We smoked cigarettes, and when I got home my parents noticed the smell. They caught me doing lots of stuff I shouldn’t have been doing.

First Time Fired
I tried to bartend, but half an hour into it I threw a drink at a customer because he hit on me.

First International Incident
I moved to Milan to model when I was 17, and after a week of auditions I got tired of it. I packed my stuff and took a train to Berlin without telling anyone—not the agency in Milan, not the agency in Israel, not even my parents. As a teenager, you don’t really think about those things. Everybody was freaking out, and my parents finally called the Israeli embassy. Nobody knew where I was, and they were looking for me for a week! I caused a lot of trouble.
