Now That's What I Call Jenna! Top Ten Jenna Marbles Videos

Now That's What I Call Jenna! Top Ten Jenna Marbles Videos

Y’all stressed about the world in general right now? Because I am stuh-ressed. Never fear, fair readers. I am here to offer you a safe, warm haven that’s always open, even in the darkest of times. Come, join me and feel okay again, if just for fifteen minutes, as we talk about my all-time favorite YouTube personality and fellow BU alum, Jenna Marbles.

    Jenna has been my go-to comfort presence for the past few years. While she began her YouTube career with, and was popularized by, her comedic sketch videos, Jenna’s channel has recently transformed into something so much greater. Her videos are as funny as ever, but she has essentially abandoned writing sketches for her videos in favor of putting herself, her boyfriend, Julien, and her four dogs in situations in which hilarity naturally ensues. I rewatch these videos all the time, whenever I need to feel that joy exists in the world. I present to you a countdown of my personal top ten Jenna Marbles videos, featuring dogs that are cats on the inside, side-splitting quotable nonsense, and one woman who has made a living out of doing whatever craziness pops into her head with the one man and the four animals (give or take) that she loves. Note: While pretty much completely wholesome in content, there is explicit language throughout the videos.

10. 11 Shirts For Marbles’ 11th Birthday – Watch the happiest Chihuahua in the world parade around in a slo-mo fashion show.

9. Treating My Dogs Like Babies For A Day – Dogs love onesies. Who knew?

8. My Dogs Eat Pupsicles – The dogs get a fun, messy summer treat with a very special, very polite guest dog.

7. Teaching My Dogs How To Swim – Jenna, good dog mom that she is, teaches the dogs to swim after Kermit falls into the pool.

6. ASMR Mukbang Unboxing Gaming Tutorial – This is the closest to Jenna’s old style of video that’s on this list, as she combines all of the trendiest YouTube genres into one video. There’s no way Ralph Breaks the Internet didn’t draw inspiration from this!

5. My Boyfriend Cooks My Favorite Meal – Jenna’s “leisures” in this video, berating Julien in sunglasses and wine mode as he makes her favorite meal from her home state.

4. Reading Mean Comments About My Dogs and Reading Mean Comments About My Dogs 2 – In these two videos, Jenna solicits sick burns from the internet and roasts her dogs, one by one.

3. We Went Camping In Our Backyard – Jenna, Julien, and the dogs pitch a tent, make s’mores, and pretty much have the perfect day.

2. Giving Myself a Beard – I’ve never seen Jenna as happy as she is in this video, as she becomes her truest self in an instant.

1. I Want to Be Tall – This is the best video on the internet, with the greatest song to accompany the grandest New Year’s resolution.
