<P> Jessie the Yodeling Cowgirl is a fictional character from the films Toy Story 2 and Toy Story 3 . 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 braid tied with a bow . </P> <P> 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 Years of being in storage have made her somewhat withdrawn, and noticeably afraid of the dark, to the extent of hyperventilating whenever she is inside dark enclosed spaces, or even at just the thought of being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 accepts her (and Bullseye) into his toy collection . In the beginning of Toy Story 3, she still displays signs of fear of the dark, being in storage, and being abandoned when she and the toys mistakenly believe that they are being thrown away by Andy . However, 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 . </P> <P> 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 . </P> <P> Jessie also makes a cameo in Monsters, Inc. as one of Boo's toys that she gives to Sulley . </P>
