Jasmine

Jasmine is Leshawna's friend who has never actually appeared on Total Drama Island. She only appeared in Leshawna's exclusive video message from home for commercials on Cartoon Network, but she mistook it for an audition for the second season, because she wanted to be part of Total Drama. As part of her audition, she begins to recite Juliet's monologue from the balcony scene from "Romeo and Juliet." She barely finishes the first sentence before realizing it's incorrect and then says that it isn't important. She explains that she has attended McGillis Talent Agency, a drama class, and lives in a rough neighborhood on a peninsula, in which she calls it a "Total Drama Peninsula." At that point, the camera man points out that she is supposed to be talking about Leshawna. Upon hearing this, she misses the point and asks if Leshawna would like an autographed 8x10 photograph of herself. The video then ends.

Her video is unique because the other videos show family members, but this shows a best friend, implying Jasmine is like family to Leshawna. Jasmine is the first family-like figure in Leshawna's life to make an appearance, though it was in a commercial and not on the actual show. Leshawna's best friend and cousin, Leshaniqua, is the second to be revealed, but the first one to make an appearance on the actual show.

Trivia

 * Her overall design almost perfectly matches Courtney's design, with the exception of her nose, skin color, hair color, and her outfit. Her lips resemble Katie's.
 * Despite her audition, she never ended up being a contestant and never appeared on the show again.
 * The poster, the bear, and the bed are similar aspects from Katie and Sadie's room in their audition for the show.
 * In One Flu Over the Cuckoos, Leshawna claims that her best friend is her cousin, Leshaniqua, and not Jasmine.
 * The "McGillis Talent Agency" that Jasmine references during her audition tape is a reference to Tom McGillis, who created, produced, and partially directed Total Drama.
 * Jasmine is the first known non-contestant to make an audition tape, although this isn't technically a real one. It is supposed to be a video message from home to Leshawna, but she either mistakes it for an audition tape, or she deliberately takes advantage of the opportunity to make herself famous, rather than actually give a message to Leshawna.
