Nicknamed "The Back" because of her dresses that were more than backless--they were cut down to just above the gluteal cleft, causing quite a commotion. The Limeliters wrote a song titled "Vikki Dougan" to commemorate this phenomenon, in which they sing of her "callipygian cleft" ("callipygian" meaning "having shapely buttocks") and beg her, "Vikki, turn your back on me".
