Like every other young comic says in their bio- Jessi Campbell is one of the fastest rising stars in comedy. But this time it’s true. Jessi started comedy at age 18 and after choosing to leave college when she failed out, she pursued comedy full time. She had her first real gig at age 19 and never looked back.

Recently, Jessi was selected to be a part of CMT’s Next Big Comic. She made it all the way to the finals, losing by a narrow margin and gaining a secret hatred for the winner.

Jessi has headlined at over 100 colleges, quickly building a young and nation wide fan base. As a contributing comic for Life and Style magazine, she regularly makes fun of celebrities she will no doubt suck up to if she ever meets them. She has also appeared on the Bob and Tom radio show and was featured on the accompanying television show.

In 2009, Jessi was the winner of the People Choice Award at the Aspen Comedy Festival. In the same summer she was a semi-finalist in the Great American Comedy Festival honoring Johnny Carson.

In 2010 Jessi was honored to be part of the ARMY I. A.M. Strong tour. Spending a month on a tour bus with bands, singers, poets, and soldiers, she performed at bases all over the country. Jessi was also invited to perform at the ARMY GI SHARPS annual summit.

Jessi has been described as “relatable to both men and women of all ages” and “straight up gangsta”. She has been touring for over a decade and commands the stage with her not to be missed performance. With a charismatic and unique personality, Jessi brings the audience into her world of hilarious stories and observations. Read more on Last.fm.
