WHITESNAKE COVER MODEL FAINTED AT THE SIGHT OF SNAKE

The teenage model on the cover of WHITESNAKE's SLIDE IT IN album passed out when she realised the reptile around her neck was real.
The album has just been re-released to commemorate its 25th anniversary and frontman David Coverdale has revealed the story behind the iconic cover.
He tells Metro.co.uk, "There were actually two girls. The first one was 17 years old and she fainted dead away (immediately).
"We had to get another model in to do the back cover."
