When I see claims of someone doing blackface, I think of this nightmare fuel.

Not someone throwing on a pink wig and singing popular songs by a black artist. Quit diminishing the meaning of this term.
 
She doesn't realize that these people don't have hurt feelings. They just like attacking people.

Exactly. At the begining of Jenna's video, she talks about how we're living in an age where "everyone wants to purge everything that is toxic."

The people doing this "purging" are the REAL toxic ones, and it saddens me that Jenna herself does not appear to realize it. I've gotten the vibes from her channel for a few years now: She appears to lack any sort of confidence anymore, because she appears to be too terrified to say or do anything creative. She doesn't even want to wear remotely revealing clothing anymore, and I personally believe that's because she feels guilty for being conventionally attractive in "Current Year" and not at all because "she's just SO comfortable with herself these days!" If I thought the latter were true, I wouldn't be bringing it up.

Like, even in her crafting videos over the past few years, I got sad while watching them. She'd do a craft, and then continue to beat herself up over how much she hated her artwork. It's been sad to watch, really. To me, she clearly doesn't appear to be a remotely happy person, and it's sad to see because I do still like her.

These people are flat-out abusive. I don't use that term lightly. These people beat others into submission mentally and emotionally (and now physically due to the riots and the ANTIFA camps, but I digress!). It's to a point where people are too terrified to say anything in public anymore because they fear that their livelihoods will be destroyed.

If that isn't abusive (or, you know ... Downright fascist), then I don't fucking know what is.

All of this is just sad. And now that asshole Shane Dawson posts an "accountability" video and starts it off with how inspired he was by Jenna's video. What a bullshitter he is. There was nothing inspiring about Jenna's video; it was SAD to watch.
 
I'm kind of surprised. I remember her getting canceled years ago and she kept going like nothing happened. I guess she's got stacks in the bank and doesn't care anymore.
 
I was trying to find the drama preceding this, but it's very insular. No surprise I guess.

It began with beauty YouTube drama surrounding Jeffree Star, Shane Dawson and James Charles trying to cancel each other or something. Whatever, it's not important.

But it led to Twitter nobodies saying that if Shane Dawson deserves being cancelled, so does Jenna Marbles.

[Drama] A Summary Of Jenna Marbles Problematic History
submitted Fri Dec 22 06:35:34 2017 UTC by [deleted]
⬆ 0

NOTE I absolutely do not want to spread false information. Although I have tried to do as much research as possible, mistakes happen and I apologize for any that I have made in the upcoming paragraphs. If anything I have written is inaccurate, please let me know. If possible, tag my username in a comment with a link to the source. I will edit this to be correct.

A little background for those unfamiliar with Jenna:

Jenna Marbles is a 31 year old (Born September 15, 1986) YouTuber and comedian. She posted the first video to her current channel on February 27, 2010, and has since accumulated over 17 million followers and over 2 billion views. Her channel is the 28th most subscribed YouTube channel, and the 2nd most subscribed YouTube channel operated by a woman.

Jenna has some questionable past behavior, but she still gets lots of praise and support on this sub. I see similarities between her actions and those of other BGs, but those BGs do not seem to get the same kinds of free passes Jenna gets..

Slut shaming and internalized misogyny:

In early December, 2012 Jenna (26 years old at the time) posted a video titled "Things That I Don't Understand About Girls Part 2: Slut Edition"

She begins the video by stating that this is her opinion, and to feel free to disagree. She goes onto acknowledge the negative connotations behind the word "slut", which she defines as a person that has a lot of casual sex. She says "being a slut is a choice, I'm not making fun of you, I'm making fun of your slutty choices." She also notes that she has many friends that are sluts.

Jenna goes on to talk about things she does not understand about sluts. She says that girls have body issues and she doesn't get why they would want to be naked and vulnerable around some stranger. She says "maybe he's got big plans of chopping me up in little pieces and keeping me in the freezer for a while. Maybe he's got like 10 roommates in the other room that are just waiting to close in and gangbang you for the night."

Jenna follows by stating "you know what sounds more fun than that? Just, like, taking down their number and maybe getting to know them for more than a night? Maybe Google their name or something to make sure that theyre not wanted for murder?" She says that she feels that sluts have "a lack of caring friends" and adds "I would never let you go home with a dude, I don't care how dope his axe body spray smells, I'm not judt gunna let you go get murdered and herpes,I watch SVU."

Jenna changes the subject from One Night Stands to Stupid Sluts. She says she is "not using this lightly" and is "not refering to their intellectual capabilities, but the logic behind their actions that is stupid."

Jenna says that she went to college with many sluts. "Guys go to school to look for sluts and many girls go to school cause they're like, 'I'm gunna be a slut!'. These are facts."

She says that she doesn't understand sluts who bang other girls boyfriends, states "they're asking for bad karma" but doesn't shame the guys who cheat on their girlfriends.

Jenna says that she doesn't understand when "a particularly promiscuous girl finally gets knocked up and is like 'you, is everyone so excited for me? Isn't this great? I'm having a baby!' And we're all like 'I'm not excited. Do you know who the dad is? Cause I remember that time in college when the hockey team was running train on you."

Jenna starts the next bit with a little bit of advice: she says to step in if you see a guy trying to take home a girl who is blackout drunk. She goes on to say to "Be a fellow vagina partner in life, go up to her and be like 'are you alright?' Help them. Help the sluts of the world make less bad slutty decisions. Look out for the sluts of the universe, cause I think they're just a little lonely and sad."

"One girl to another: Hooking up with a bunch of dudes doesn't make you cool. Hooking up with one dude that you care about and know and have stong feels for makes you cool."

Jenna gives some more advice, she says to never let anyone pressure you into doing something you don't want to do.

Then she says "John Mayer said 'Your Body Is A Wonderland' but it's your choice if you want Wonderland to be an exclusive club, like VIP, you gotta wait in line forever to get into the club.. Or if you want Wonderland to be like a theme park kids get into for free on Saturday with a canned good."

Jenna promises not to "judge you for the color of your booty shorts and how much titty tata you got hanging out of your shirt piece, but only by the contents of your mouth, butthole and vagina.. That was horrible, but it's true. You can look like a slut, act like a slut, but I'll only judge you by how many dicks you put in your body on a regular basis, of whose names you have no idea."

She uses the end of her video to speak about monogamy: "Someday I hope you realize it feels much better when you're just not having so many dicks in you." "One theory of human sexuality: Monogamy is almost a state of higher being. Anyone can be a slut but it takes lotic and reasoning to be like 'I think I'll just be with one person and not sleep with the world.' Find somebody who likes you for you and it might make you happier than bukake all over your face."

“So girls, out there, please respect yourselves, respect your body and make good life decisions.”

It is worth noting that on October 26th, 2011, Jenna posted a video called Sluts on Halloween that seemed to echo different sentiments to the ones she stated over a year later.

Racism:

Jenna posted a video titled "What Nicki Minaj Wants In a Man" sometime in 2011. In the video, Jenna imitates Nicki Minaj by wearing a pink wig and stuffing her pants to give her thicker thighs and a bigger butt. Her skin is noticeably darker but I am unsure if that is from tanning or make up. If it is a spray tan, I am unsure if it was done with the sole purpose of doing blackface in mind.

On December 21st, 2011, Jenna posted a music video for a song called Bounce That Dick to her YouTube channel. The app won't let me copy the link for some reason (?) But It's the first result if you search "Jenna Marbles Bounce That Dick" on YouTube.

The video shows Jenna parodying many of the common rap music video scenes, with mainly white men. Around the 1:50 minute mark, Jenna appears in yellowface while saying "Hey, Ching Chong Wing Wong, shake your King Kong ding dong Sorry, that was racist, I’m bad at rap songs." Lyrics

Apologies:

For her [300th video](,https://youtu.be/B_PFgg0QnVI), Jenna posted a video of her reacting to her old videos on May 26th, 2016.

Around the 7:20 mark, Jenna reads a comment on an old video that says "I didnt like when she made fun of him by calling him gay but it shows how shes grown in the past few years as a person."

Jenna says "I've said words in the past that just aren't okay. A lot of my older videos, like, I said some words that are just offensive. I think having a comment section and always reading the comments has helped me a lot as a person. You know, kind of grew up and realized that I dont want to talk like that, I don't want to be like that, I dont want to use those words that I used and I stopped."

During a podcast with Shane Dawson on 2015, Jenna had this response to her Nicki Minaj video “Yeah, I did a Nicki Minaj video where I literally was just tan. I was actually that tan…people were like, this is blackface. F**k off! If I wanted to do blackface, it would be like that moonface emoji.” Jenna says.

Another note: Shane Dawson has done black face many times. Jenna has not spoken out against this or stopped associating with him over it.

In 2014, Jenna explained why she didn't respond to the negative feedback to her slut shaming comments and says “I feel the way that I feel about it, and I don’t take back what I said."

Here's an archive of each video they complained about, which Jenna Marbles ended up apologizing for.

What Nicki Minaj Wants In A Man


Bounce That Dick



She made the video Things I Don't Understand About Girls Part 2: Slut Edition private. But it was available until at least April 2020 with YouTube's content warning that restricts viewing to 18+ YouTube accounts or embeds. I couldn't find a reupload to archive. It was notorious enough that a New York Times profile of her (archive) briefly mentioned the drama fallout.

She's made a lot of her other old videos private too. Here's an archive of a few.

What Girls Do On The Internet


Just another day for these intellectuals.
 
She doesn't realize that these people don't have hurt feelings. They just like attacking people.
If she does it from that angle, then she'll be attacked even harder. All it would take is for one person with convincing enough fake tears for her to be "proven wrong".
 
A lot of people I see happy that Jenna is gone are 12 - 15 year old girls who haven't actually watched her before. I saw a tweet where someone was like "Idk who she is but I love when racists get deplatformed." while not knowing her "black face" was a result of a bad tan at a salon. It sucks because their age group is becoming more prevalent, and have an increasing online presence that will eventually control the direction of online entertainment. This reminds me of how Joji fans were shocked to find out he's Filthy Frank, it just proves that anyone "cancelling" anybody else are all 12 year old girls who are conditioned to believe everything is terrible.

Just another day for these intellectuals.

It still blows my mind that the "Things I Don't Understand About Girls Part 2: The Slut Edition" is considered sexist. It wasn't sexist at all. Wasn't sexist then, isn't sexist now. The truth is just a hard pill to swallow.

If you are a person who constantly brags about how many people you've fucked, then don't get mad when all of the sudden people don't trust you-- especially around their significant others. If you make sex and promiscuity your entire personality, then guess what? Normal and well-adjusted people are going to rightfully not trust you and are rightfully not going to want to be around your crude ass, man or woman. It's just common sense, y'all.

I guess I'm the female Mike Pence, or something. lol.

In that video, mind you, Jenna separates actual sluts from normal women as well. She literally made a point to tell her audience that if they saw a young lady in a bar or at a party drunk and about to go home with someone, then they should "go help her!" It was actually good advice to be telling young people, and the fact that she made a point to differentiate between a normal, sexually active woman from an attention-whoring slut just proves that her video was NOT sexist or full of "internalized misogyny."

It's not sexist to call out gross behavior, everyone. It's about setting fucking standards for yourself, whether it be about how you act, or about the people you want to surround yourself with.

Also, let's not forget Jenna's "Sluts on Halloween" video, where she goes out to bat for women who dress sexy on Halloween. Yeah ... What a "slut-shamer" and a "self-hating woman," am I right?
 
Última edición:
I haven't watched her videos since around 2012 or so, but I remember watching them and having a laugh every now and then.

I already hate "cancel culture", but to see such innocuous shit be "cancelled" is extremely fucking stupid. She's already rich and on other platforms so I guess leaving makes sense, but seeing grown adults grovel in the face of ludicrous accusations and publicly apologize and beg for forgiveness is disgusting.

Being "woke" is just a new religion. They're creating their own boogey-men right now as people SEETHE over their favorite shows, games, celebs and even restaurants being destroyed by a vocal minority paired with an opportunistic corporate America.
 
unfortunately the "spray tan is blackface" drooling knuckledraggers don't surprise me at all, because it reminds me of tumblrinas chimping at a photoset of Jurassic world because chris pratt got progressively more tan and the privileged ninnies claimed something along the lines of "how dare u take this racist measure, if you'd rather darken him than hire a black person!" while simultaneously not having the two neurons firing tell them that during summer, exposed to the sun's uv rays for hours, white people will tan,
 
A few weeks ago she made these tweets:
Ver archivo adjunto 1413317
And now the SJWs are canceling her. Her content was always so apolitical that this whole thing just seems weird.

She was a good dancing monkey and always tried to keep everyone happy - even posting the George Floyd crap like a good girl and she still got dragged. If that’s not an indication to ignore cancel culture I don’t know what is.

like others have said - they don’t care if you apologise and beg for mercy, they’re just happy they tore someone down.
 
This might be kayfabe because she didn't have Marbles say goodbye. :story:
