Wednesday Israeli Hotties – Keren Michaeli Is Cute, Infamous
Posted on June 2, 2010Unlike last week’s Bar Refaeli gallery, I don’t really have a news hook justifying these pictures. It’s just that the Facebook sidebar randomly told me yesterday that I have some mutual friends with Keren Michaeli from Tel Aviv, and then... -
