Both😂😭😭 I literally have had Jenna in my life since I was 11 years old making me feel better on my days and months when I felt like trash and was trying to be a better person I would always try to model myself after her and try to be better and now that she's not around my days and months where I feel depressed and s***** anymore it's harder and I just have to watch old videos and I feel bad that we made her feel that bad that she had to run away from us or make an excuse to leave the internet instead of just telling us that she was tired of doing this for odd close to 15 years

@BotanyDegreePilkerton 2 года назад

She got her money and split, she was never having a break, she split, it's been 2 years, she can't come back now if she wanted to which she doesn't. Let it go, move on, she has. She is a multi millionaire, she's retired forever. She no longer needs her fans. She has never once tried to contact the folks who paid for her mansion. She never cared about her supporters. She ghosted them. Took 4 dogs away too, heartbreaking. She was under the impression SHE was unproblematic.... Then she took a stand millions of white supremes did NOT approve of so, she stood up for BLM, pale folks exposing all her Problematic videos. She split. She took the loot and ran.

@Aerogrow Год назад

agreed... Anyone that has been targeted by the social marxist pushing identify politics knows its usually easier to just "exit stage left". The hate filled evil of humans and culture is more scarring then anything. Intent and meaning lose all context and it comes down to "illegal words" or "illegal actions" in a constantly changing see of social contracts. Those social contracts change day by day; month by month; then they apply them to history and use the new rules against you (that they just made up last week). I keep hoping more people standup to these bullies; but it looks like that is not going happen anytime soon.

I hate that she’s still attached to “blackface.” Others on this platform are more than guilty of it, but that video originally referenced was a bad tan. She literally worked at a tanning salon when it was filmed and it’s clear her whole body was the same color in videos before and after the one accused. Either way, she owned her past mistakes and she was one of the only genuine RU-vidrs left. She grew with us and showed clear understanding, responsibility, and humanity for her mistakes. I miss her terribly, but I hope she’s living her best life!

@SandyCheeks1896 Год назад

It wasn’t even a mistake. That’s why she left. She had nothing to own up to and she wasn’t going to play by herself he rules this toxic work culture has established, but she also had no interest in opposing it because it’s a pointless fight and won’t make you happy. So she took her ball and went home, and now she’s happy. Badass.

@encycl07pedia- Год назад

@@SandyCheeks1896 That's what really infuriates me. It was just absolutely nothing. There was no reason for any rational person to hate her for that video.

@JumpingTuna Год назад

I don't think it was even that. She saw other content creators losing everything for doing racist jokes. She remembered she did a bunch of racist jokes. She knew what she did was wrong. She publicly held herself accountable before she was in the spotlight, and got out while she was ahead. Also, once she was out, she stayed out. Her private life is probably better for it to be honest.

@Aerogrow Год назад

@@JumpingTuna and a great example on why we can't have nice things. Maybe spend less time cancelling people; comedy and satire is about finding the edge. If you get offended; turn it off. Luckily we have people like chappele and others pushing against talentless marxists forcing everyone to comply to their version of "ok". Going guess you railed against tropic thunder also... Disgusting; go ahead and point out in history where the censors were on the right side. Be a bit mindful/thoughtful on what you are supporting.

@DivShadow Год назад

Never apologize to the mob. Ignore them, and keep making your content.

@alliemazing5774 Месяц назад

I could be wrong but I feel like she stopped making the content she liked making a long time ago. She might have genuinely changed and mellowed out that much. But she used to be a little crass and really funny. She was more of a comedian than a youtuber. But for so many years before her quitting she mostly did super PC content with hardly any humor and the humor was also very PC. She mostly did arts and crafts and at the end vlogs. She gave off "wholesome vlogger" vibes. I still enjoyed watching her because she was a huge influence in my young life. But she even mentioned a few times that she didn't know what to do for videos anymore. She never really took breaks and I think she tried so hard to please everyone that it eventually just wore her down completely. I think she got bored and uninspired and probably felt anxious about being herself online. Now she gets to just be her own funny person without getting judged so harshly by the internet.

@jaimeerobertswarz 9 месяцев назад

She wasn’t cancelled. As a psychology major over her comedic personality she chose to take down videos like the nicki minaj, lady gaga, & many others that people started watching that they found “offensive”. She took the high road and even apologized also she never did black face. Its the new generation who cant handle jokes or sarcasm and she did not want to deal with it. The comments were out of control from new idealist people who just would not stop. I don’t blame her for leaving the platform. The harassment was to much. She was a youtber that was actually funny, and had original content. Now people just repost peoples content for content. Hopefully she will come one day!

@albeerd4436 Год назад

@chelseafrisbie4863 2 года назад

I really feel that Jenna started to become disillusioned with being a “celebrity” for a while before she left. if you go back and watch her videos or the podcast she did with Julien, you can see that in the months leading up to her departure, she seemed less into it and it seemed less enjoyable for her. obviously this is just from someone who has been following her for quite literally a decade, and a parasocial analysis, but I wasn’t super shocked when she made the announcement. I remember thinking months before during one of the podcast episodes that it didn’t seem like she was having fun anymore :( maybe it all just came to a head and she decided at that point, in which her apology was certainly owed for some of the “jokes” in her older videos, as the way to “get out” so to speak, or time to move on. The internet is not at all what it was in 2010 when she started, maybe she felt it was time to move on. again, certainly just one person‘s opinion, and it really doesn’t matter because she’s gone now (and hopefully happy!). And sheeeeeesh do I miss her lol

@ghostek7792 Год назад

this is honestly so absurd it actually almost feels like satire. The sad thing is seeing people even having to describe in detail what should be blatantly common sense. this isn't the result of people thinking and reasoning, it's the result of a whole bunch actual useless human beings coming together to collectively attack someone, so that the person can beg for their forgiveness. This is what those people get out of it, it satifies them because they have control over another person, and they get to sit behind their phones and computers watching it unfold, it's control

@daylight1992 2 года назад

This is one of those cases that are slowly making "black face" irrelevant. If someone is being pressured to leave the internet because of a bad tan while doing an impression of a popular celebrity that's the part that's not ok. Refusing to acknowledge the context of time time the video was made (having a really dark tan was in style), is not ok. Glaslighting someone into believing they did something racist when they didn't, is not ok. People need to grow up, let the past go, and realize that at some point a choice is made to be offended over nothing and that is the real problem here.

@Skenjin 2 года назад

Except if they did that cancel culture wouldn't exist, and these haters just can't have that can they?

@daylight1992 2 года назад

@@Skenjin oh it would still exist, their are definitely cases of people who do things with the core intent of spreading hate and/or harmful misinformation and those people deserve to be canceled. But this isn't one of those cases. In the early 2000's having the darkest tan possible was apart of the "popular" look, especially in California. Frankly if Jenna is being canceled for this why has no one gone after girls in Japan who follow the Gyaru trends? Which yes, is heavily based off of the fashion trends in California in the early 2000's, the style trends that Jenna herself followed at that time.

@um2913 Год назад

The reason she was canceled in the first place was because people got upset that she took down the racist video she made in the past instead of acknowledging them. In her video, she talks about how she knew what she did was wrong in those videos and decided to take them down so that they could no longer influence other people and do harm. But the reason people canceled her was because she did this instead of openly making a big deal about it and making a public apology that way. That’s why she left because she did the right thing by taking them down but the Internet still wasn’t happy because they wanted her to make a public announcement about it. Even though the reason she didn’t was because she felt like that would bring more attention to those past negative videos.
