Jessica Ferguson grew up anticipating a life onstage. Musicals. Broadway. Three bucks, two bags, one her. (Annie reference, thank you very much.) The Sugar Land native was a repeat performer for both Theatre Under the Stars (The Sound of Music, It’s a Wonderful Life) and Masquerade Theatre (Godspell, Seussical, Grease).
“It was always theater for me,” Ferguson, now 22, says. “When I was four years old, my mom put me into competitive dancing. I was constantly getting in trouble from my teacher for singing the words while dancing. I was the only one in the group picking, like, Barbra Streisand and Bette Midler.” (Click on the link for more.) - 29-95.com (Houston Chronicle)

Bio
In this age of instant, fleeting stardom, it is all too easy to get jaded when one hears about a 24-year-old pop singer. Fortunately, for Jessica Ferguson, her love for song is matched only by her talent, [Music] was the only thing that could get me going anywhere, Jessica explained. My mom would put in the cassette tapes and Id be good to go! Music became an escape for me
Inspired by legendary artists like Barbara Streisand, Gene Kelly, Michael Jackson, and hometown stars Destinys Child, Jessica knew at a young age that she wanted to be a professional performer and began her formal dance and musical training when she was five years old, School was very hard for me growing up, Jessica said. My heart wasnt into formal studies, so it became frustrating. I could not wait to get out of class and go to my dance, theatre, and voice classes. Performing became my outlet. By the eighth grade, Jessica was being home schooled, which permitted her to channel all of her energies into the arts. By the age of 13, Jessica landed leading roles at the Masquerade Theatre and Theatre Under the Stars, and began to make a name for herself in Houstons local theatre scene.
In 2009, Jessica began to work on her debut LP with High School Musical producer Andrew Lane. The single Rockstar, released via digitally, became a smash hit. Rockstar is one of the records that Ive been told speaks to a lot of different people, Jessica said. No matter where or who you are, if you want to, you can be a rock star!? She later recorded Entertainment on an indie label, and the track was included on the soundtrack to the 2009 hit Paul Blart: Mall Cop.
Jessica recently embarked on a high school tour, during which she is set to performed and speak with students about achieving their dreams. Its always been my hope to inspire, through music the way that music has inspired me, Jessica said. I have been inspired by entertainers such as Janet Jackson, Justin Timberlake, and Jennifer Lopez, to name a few, because of their music and the show they put on. I hope to bring that kind of [element] to the stage and be an inspiration through my music, message and entertainment.
