World, brace yourself,

Bar Refaeli got a tattoo. The Israeli model and pride of the Jewish people posted announced new ink on Instagram with the caption: “I finally did it. My first (and last) tattoo.”

She graduated from the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism with an M.S. magazine concentration in 2012.
