Jenna adopted the pseudonym Marbles, and reached her big breakthrough in 2010, when she created a YouTube channel “JennaMarbles”, on which she started uploading entertaining videos. “How to Trick People into Thinking You’re Good Looking” in particular proved to be an instant success, as it managed to attract the attention of more than 5.3 million viewers during its debut week alone. Marbles subsequently managed to maintain relevance in the entertainment industry, by uploading videos that explore various relevant topics. In 2011, she came out with the video entitled “How to Avoid Talking to People You Don’t Want to Talk to”, which attracted the attention of 34 million viewers on YouTube, and was even covered in “ABC News” programs, and “The New York Times” magazine. Such public exposure helped Marbles secure a wide audience on her channel, which currently has more than 17 million subscribers, and has attracted over two billion views, and still counting.
However, although Marbles is best known for her videos, she has also been making appearances in a variety of other projects. Marbles played the character of “Eve” in the video called “Adam vs. Eve” from the series “Epic Rap Battles of History”, which was co-created by Peter Shukoff and Lloyd Ahlquist, which has attracted more than 39 million views on YouTube.

Additionally, Marbles has entered the wider business world, releasing Kermie Worm & Mr. Marbles, a type of dog toy which appear based upon her own real dogs.
