There has never been a Miss Montana to win the crown while living in the Mining City.
We have at least on Miss Montana living in the "Holey City" today, and nobody seems to be more of a Butte girl that Jessica Picker.
Jessica, whose maiden name is Criss, hails from Klamath Falls, Oregon, and she won the Miss Montana Crown while attending Montana State University in 2020. She was again “crowned” Miss Montana in 2021 after COVID wiped out the 2020 Miss America pageant.
Today, Jessica is a proud Butte resident.
In five Miss Montana pageants, Jessica took home Miss Congeniality honors five times. She also took home that title at the Miss America pageant in 2021. She has a black belt in Japanese Jujutsu, so she can kick your butt while wearing high heels.
Of course, Miss Congeniality would never do that.
Listen in to hear Jessica's story.
