Jessie, the Yodeling Cowgirl is a fictional character featured in the film Toy Story 2. At Christmas in 1999, the Wall Street Journal called Jessie toys among the hottest of the season. In the movie, she is a toy modeled after a character on the fictional television show Woody's Roundup, where the characters consisted of Sheriff Woody, Jessie, Stinky Pete the Prospector and Bullseye, Woody's horse.

Her hair is formed to be a ponytail braid with a bow decorated on the tip. Jessie the doll has a character very similar to the one portrayed on the television show. She is excitable, brave and very athletic.

The doll, however, carries a great deal of sadness, as she was abandoned by her original owner. Years of being in storage have made her somewhat withdrawn, distrustful, and a little claustrophobic, but she longs to again be a source of joy to a child, which came true at the end of the film when Andy accepted her (and Bullseye) into his toy collection. Jessie also makes a cameo in Monsters, Inc.

as one of Boo's toys that she gives to Sulley. She was voiced by Joan Cusack in the film (voice actress Mary Kay Bergman voiced her yodels and speaking role of the TV show). In October 2000, Jessie received the Patsy Montana Entertainer Award from the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame.
