Jessie The Yodeling Cowgirl, or simply Jessie, is a fictional character from the films ''Toy Story 2'' and ''Toy Story 3''. At Christmas in 1999, the ''Wall Street Journal'' called Jessie toys among the hottest of the season.〔("How Did Stores Do This Season? Just Two Syllables: Ka-Ching!", The Wall Street Journal, December 27, 1999. Accessed October 2, 2008 )〕 In the movie, she is a very rare toy modeled after a character on the fictional television show ''Woody's Roundup'', where the characters included Sheriff Woody, Jessie, Stinky Pete the Prospector and Bullseye, Woody's horse. Her hair is formed in a ponytail braid tied with a bow. 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, which left her somewhat distrustful. Years of being in storage have made her somewhat withdrawn, and noticeably afraid of the dark, to the extent of hyperventilating whenever she is inside dark enclosed spaces, or even at just the thought of being abandoned. But she longs to again be a source of joy to a child, and this wish comes true at the end of ''Toy Story 2'' when Andy accepted her (and Bullseye) into his toy collection. In ''Toy Story 3'', while she still displays signs of the fear of the dark, storage, and being abandoned in the beginning when she and the toys mistakenly believe that they are being thrown away by Andy, throughout the rest of the film, she appears to be more loyal, confident and helpful to others, in the process developing a romantic relationship with Buzz Lightyear. She reappears in the short films ''Hawaiian Vacation'' (released with ''Cars 2'') and ''Small Fry'' (released with ''The Muppets''). Jessie is voiced by Joan Cusack in all the films, while Mary Kay Bergman voiced her yodels and "Woody's Roundup" TV-show voice in ''Toy Story 2''. Bergman died just before ''Toy Story 2'' was released, so the film was dedicated to her. Her singing voice is supplied by Sarah McLachlan (Jessie's song in ''Toy Story 2'', "When She Loved Me", is sung by McLachlan rather than Cusack or Bergman). Jessie also makes a cameo in ''Monsters, Inc.'' as one of Boo's toys that she gives to Sulley.〔(Toy Story 2 )〕 In October 2000, Jessie received the Patsy Montana Entertainer Award from the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame.〔(Cowgirl Hall of Fame - Special Awards )〕 She is also portrayed by Devon Dawson live on stage as a guest with Riders in the Sky in their concert and plays the guitar. Jessie is the namesake of version 8 of the Debian operating system. The code names of Debian releases are names of characters from the ''Toy Story'' films. This naming tradition came because Bruce Perens was involved in the early development of Debian while working at Pixar. ==Appearances== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jessie (Toy Story)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
