Jasmin Brown, also known as “Jazzy,” rapidly became an online sensation known for her in-car rants and original characters, such as Reggie, Termite, and—everyone’s hood favorite—Toya Turnup. She quickly built a rabid fanbase by simply being herself (or heightened versions thereof).
Funny, inspirational, unapologetic, and down-to-earth are a few of the many words used to describe this comedic actress. Her radiant and charismatic personality has enabled her to build a solid standing in the entertainment industry. She is working on projects with Kevin Hart, Will Smith, Jamie Foxx, and 50 Cent, for networks such as MTV, BET, LOL Network, Cleo TV, Bounce, SiriusXM, and Netflix (where her first movie, Always A Bridesmaid, debuted). The multi-hyphenate star inspires millions of people around the world with a raw and authentic style of comedy that has her selling out shows across the country.
Brown was born in Takoma Park, Maryland, and raised in West Palm Beach, Florida. She is the daughter of two West Indian parents who worked hard to make ends meet. Under challenging circumstances, she and her three older siblings made the best of what they had, embracing the mindset that hard work is key. As a young girl living in a rough neighborhood, Brown was often bullied, and she struggled with self-esteem and identity issues at an early age, which caused her to create her own friends and play elaborate dress-up. Changing her hair, voice, and body language, she unknowingly created the foundation of the original characters for which she would become famous and perform onstage across the world.
