Jenna Marbles spotted for first time in years doing what she loves most
Jenna Marbles made a rare appearance in public five years after leaving YouTube behind – and fans are begging paparazzi to leave her alone.
Jenna Mourey, famously known as“Jenna Marbles,”was one ofYouTube’sfirst major stars. However, shortly after creating her channel in 2010,Mourey created content that critics deemed racially offensive, which included a controversial impression of rapper Nicki Minaj.
“For now, I just can’t exist on this channel… I think I’m just going to move on from this channel for now,”Mourey saidin a June 2020 YouTube video. “I don’t know how long it’s going to be. I just want to make sure the things I’m putting in the world aren’t hurting anyone. So, I need to be done with this channel, for now or for forever.”
Though the YouTuber has been MIA from the internet, where she once thrived as a comedian, Mourey was pictured for one of the first times in five years on June 23, 2025.
On that Friday, Mourey was seen walking her dogs withher husband and fellow YouTuber. Julien Solomita. As she strolled down her neighborhood in Los Angeles, Mourey wore black sweatpants with a red-checkered flannel.

Despite her millions of fans going without content from their favorite creator for years, when photographs of Mourey walking her dogs appeared online,they rallied behind her, saying it wasn’t fair for paparazzi to follow the retired YouTuber.
“This is so invasive. Stop this. Jenna is off limits,” commented a fan on aTikTokvideo of Mourey’s outing.

“Man, this is NOT how I want to see her. I want to see her when and if she wants to be seen,” said another.
Though Mourey hasn’t created new content in years, her rare public appearance is no indication of whether or not she’ll return to the spotlight.
She is far from the only big-time YouTuber to step away from the internet. YouTube star CoryxKenshinfamously left the platformfor a year and a half before making hislong-awaited comebackin late 2024.
