Princess Jasmine is a famous character from Walt Disney Pictures' animated movie Aladdin, released in 1992. The speaking voice for Jasmine is done by American actress Linda Larkin. Her beautiful singing voice is provided by Filipina singer Lea Salonga.

Jasmine is the lively Princess of Agrabah. She feels tired of being stuck inside the palace all the time. An old law says she must marry a prince before her next birthday. But Jasmine wants to marry someone she truly loves, not just someone who is rich or royal. She was created by directors Ron Clements and John Musker, along with writers Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio. Jasmine's character is based on Princess Badroulbadour from the old fairy tale "Aladdin and the Magical Lamp" in One Thousand and One Nights.

Jasmine's Story

Jasmine was born in the royal palace of Agrabah. She grew up with many luxuries and comforts. Her only friend was her tiger, Rajah. Jasmine's mother passed away when she was young. Her father, the Sultan, raised her.

Jasmine was happy until her father tried to make her marry. She was supposed to marry a prince before her 16th birthday. Unhappy about this, Jasmine ran away from the palace.

Meeting Aladdin

While exploring the city streets, Jasmine met a kind young man named Aladdin. She later found out that Aladdin was arrested for stealing food. This made her sad.

Saving Agrabah

Later, a bad guy named Jafar took control of Agrabah. He made Jasmine his slave. Luckily, Aladdin returned and bravely defeated Jafar. Jasmine realized she loved Aladdin very much. They decided to get married. After their wedding, Jasmine became the Queen of Agrabah.
