Israelis transfixed by Hollywood visitor
Israel’s prime minister held an important meeting with the Palestinian president this week, but few things appear to interest Israelis more right now than Leonardo DiCaprio.
The Oscar-nominated star flew into Israel early Sunday with his girlfriend, supermodel Bar Raphaeli, igniting a paparazzi storm. The two have been romantically linked for about a year, and the Israeli papers regularly run breathless updates on their relationship, tinged with pride that a local girl snagged an A-list Hollywood heartthrob.
