That was singer Anita Bryant.
The industry fired her after that and hired Burt Reynolds and his then-wife Loni Anderson to do the commercials after that.
And it was awesome then! Burt was the number one box office star in the world at the time and of course Loni Anderson was the gorgeous big tit blonde from "WKRP Cincinnati"
They did some great commercials that were pretty funny.
But yeah...Anita Bryant was a religious nutjob and made some anti-gay remarks in an interview that started a firestorm. It got her fired, and pretty much screwed her career.
