MISS USA


JAZMYN FERGUSON
Miss Metro St. Louis USA 2021
As a classically trained dancer, Jazmyn is no stranger to the stage. In 2009, as a way to build her confidence, she entered into her first pageant competing in the Pre-Teen category of National American Miss. At the National American Miss Missouri State Competition, Jazmyn placed in the top 15 and was awarded 1st Runner Up in the Talent category for her tap solo--her favorite style of dance. It was that weekend at St. Louis Union Station that Jazmyn realized pageantry is more than pretty gowns and girls--it is a platform for women to feel empowered to use their voice, embrace THEIR beauty, and encourage the success of women around them.
​
Today, Jazmyn is blessed to be competing in her first major pageant system as she vies for the title of Miss Missouri USA 2021 with the Miss Universe Organization. As Miss Metro St. Louis, Jazmyn has dedicated her reign to her platform, She’s the B.O.S.S.—Brave, Optimistic, Successful Sister, which focuses on inspiring girls to reach excellence through the Girl Scout sisterhood. In partnership with Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri, she has assisted the council in shifting to provide virtual programming opportunities for girls during the COVID-19 pandemic. During her time as a Girl Scout, Jazmyn served as a girl member on the council Board of Directors, working alongside businessmen and businesswomen to develop strategic planning for the eastern Missouri region. This year, she is excited to work with Bonnie Barcykowski, CEO of GSEM, to launch the CEO Girl Cabinet, made up of Senior and Ambassador (high school) level Girl Scouts, giving them the opportunity to learn leadership lessons from a CEO and Girl Scout alumna.

Jazmyn has been preparing for this opportunity for an entire year, as the pageant was originally scheduled for November 2020 and rescheduled due to COVID-19. She will go on to represent St. Louis in the Miss Missouri USA 2021 Competition Saturday, May 1, 2021 in Kansas City, MO.
