Known around the world as the ‘king of horror’, author Stephen King doesn’t need to try too hard to sell his books.
But after writing his latest tale Morality, King decided to give the story maximum publicity, by ‘publishing’ it on the naked body of Israeli supermodel Bar Refaeli.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s model girlfriend features nude on the July cover of the U.S. edition of men’s magazine Esquire, with the opening paragraphs of King’s short story written across her famous curves.
The 23-year-old beauty had several sentences from the story, along with the title ‘Morality’ and Stephen King’s name written in scrawly black ink across her tanned physique.
Morality is billed as a story about a married couple who are struggling financially.
The wife Nora ‘is approached by her employer with a proposition that could make their dream of a home in Vermont a reality. But will it be worth the moral consequence?’
Bar posed naked to launch the magazine’s special Stories of our Time edition.
Bar enthused: ‘I haven’t seen anything like that ever. So I wanted to be the girl who did it.’
The model lay still while graphic designer James Victor painted first 48 of the story’s 6,657 words on her naked flesh.
Victor told Esquire: ‘She’s a perfect canvas because her skin is so flawless. It’s going to be amazing.’
This is the second time this year Bar has features in a revealing magazine cover.
In February, she was unveiled as the coveted cover girl for Sports Illustrated’s annual Swimsuit Issue.
She appeared in a barely-there bikini, tantalising male readers as she pulled down her bikini bottoms to reveal a tan line.
Being chosen to model in the swimsuit issue is considered a benchmark in any supermodel’s path to success and is seen by 66 million readers every year.
