Alaska: Jewel

Alaska is a tricky one, but they actually have one incredibly famous citizen: Jewel. She grew up in Anchorage, Alaska, and somehow burst out of the frigid music scene. Her family was featured on an episode of Alaska: The Last Frontier.

Jewel always talked about her magical childhood. She remembers riding horses, fishing, and picking berries with her brothers and sisters. Even though she left for a fast-paced life in LA, she still loves Alaska.
