The Real Jessica Rabbit

Did you think Veronica Lake inspired the vampy Jessica Rabbit in the movie "Who Killed Roger Rabbit"? Well think again. 


Miss Vikki Dougan was the 1950s ‘It girl’ who inspired the iconic cartoon sex bomb, Jessica Rabbit. Vicki earned herself the nickname, “The Back” in 1950s Hollywood for so often wearing her outrageously provocative backless dresses. But her fame was short lived and by 1959 her back end loaded career was over.

    I remember Vikki Dougan (thought it was Duggan, though) and the song some folky group (Brothers Four?) did about her: "Vikki, Turn Your Back On Me".

    You have a good memory, SoD. The song was by the Limelighters: http://www.kingdomoftalossa.net/index.cgi?lingo=&page=RUMPMoll2006
