(c)1988 NBC -- NBC Universal/Comcast
Promo for the 1988 made-for-TV movie "The Goddess of Love"; which starred Vanna White (at the peak of her fame on Wheel of Fortune) as Venus (the movie also featured former I've Got a Secret panelist Betsy Palmer {by then playing Pamela Voorhees on the Friday the 13th series}; David Naughton {of An American Werewolf in London; Makin' In and the "Be a Pepper" campaign for Dr Pepper}; Little Richard; John Rhys-Davies and David Leisure {future Empty Nest star famous at that point for his role in Isuzu commercials as Joe Isuzu}).
The movie was slammed by critics (TV Guide called Vanna's acting "wheely bad") and would become an embarrassment of sorts to White (who has shown signs of annoyance whenever Pat Sajak brought the movie up)
