STUNNING New York supermodel Janina Davis flew in to Blackpool to perform the Fanta-stic switch-on ceremony of Blackpool Tower Illuminations from North Pier.
Janina, hailed as the hottest model of '97, spent a wet and windy day in Blackpool being whipped by gale force winds as she stood smiling and statuesque in her sexy Fanta-coloured bikini.
The weather didn't dampen Janina's spirits however, as she rode up and down the beach on a donkey, licking candyfloss and sporting a kiss-me-quick hat.
After that, she just had time to squeeze in a traditional Blackpool fish and chip dinner, before hot-footing it on to the pier for the switch-on ceremony, lighting up the side of the tower with a giant advertisement for Fanta pop.
The tower display had to be delayed until two weeks after the rest of the Illuminations due to a planning hitch.
