"I'm thirty she ain't never been thirty" Charmane said you don't know about that lifestyle JaNa😂 ya'll's bond is so sweet I hope yall's friendship continues to flourish.

[@AzulaL-m9m]

Yall relationship is genuinely so heartwarming and cute. I would love to see more vlogs with yall shopping, traveling, trying foods!!

[@meccapcd]

I love this friendship so much! You can feel the authenticity and tell how deeply you love each other. I love all the ideas, but especially the Day in the Life of NayNay and prayer board ideas! "What I eat in a day" and "week/weekend in my life" videos are always interesting too

[@me72010]

JaNa, let our grandmother know that she's a star to all her new grandkids. 😍

@@janacraigI think your prayer board should be your eyes only .. it’s between you and God and no one else … not every who follows you have good intentions.. Thank you and have a lovely day

[@shyxlio]

Hello, could you please assist me with my tuition? I sent you a dm on tiktok.

[@collegebballfan1]

You can tell how genuine this friendship is. Just so real. You two are so blessed

[@ashm4566]

love the cozy vibe of this one. good food cooking and a chit chat with two pretty besties. y'all have such a fun back and forth, it's a treat to watch. also, the matching bob talk had me cackling, but y'all would kill it!

[@Deb-vt3sj]

Charmaine’s skin is FLAWLESSSSS we neeed a skincare routine

[@alanajones4169]

Ideas for future vlogs: - organizing your apt/closet and showing fave gifts from the unboxing - 2025 rebrand/vision board party & NY resolutions - go shopping & let Charmane or Kenny style you & then you do them - another solo Q&A but get into the real tea ☕️ 🤭 - my fave interview of yours is the almost adulting podcast- loved hearing more about your upbringing and how that affected how you navigate life today … a vid like that while you do GRWM

[@jaim3278]

Love all these ideas and crossing my fingers she does them all but you really cooked with the 3rd option! Her and charmane going out and styling eachother would be something I think JaNa would have a lot of fun with just from what she said about what style she would like to see Charmane in!

[@alanajones4169]

@ ah! TYSM 🫶🏾

[@sarinaelaine17]

This was so cute to watch! Charmaine reminds me of a 90s vixen, and that FOOD! love how you include her in your channel, real ones! love all your vlogs you were made for this!🤩

[@oluchizzle]

I love this hair on JaNa 😻 great Q&A, the sisterhood you two have is beautiful to watch!

[@OmoLN]

THEE best duo! We love a supportive friend that doesn’t pick and choose when!

[@raysmorais]

The person i like to see you with the most is Charmane, because of course she is the person who knows you the most, matches your personality and understands you. It's so good to see a friendship like yours! 🥹 💖 She is really your ride or die 🫂🫂🤍

[@swatishanbhag1598]

Jana and Kenny's real self is clearly visible in these videos. And the energy they have and the people they are associated, whether frnds or fam are so grounded, humble and positive about life. Jana, your gal pal has that sass and personality, something that missed among many of your loveisland pals too. Happy new year in advance. Hope you and kenny have it planned for your new years. Keep smiling and send my regards to your gal bestie.

[@brendamwenda7406]

They're genuinely good people. They'll forever have my support

[@Imeanittho]

You are both so beautiful and the love is so easy to see. Glad you have a genuine angel and sister like Charmane. 💕

[@MéganneOthello]

Wow! The best Q&A. This friendship is everything. You guys are like soulmates ❤

[@LoLo-r5g2m]

This is my favorite video episode yet! I love seeing fellow Christian baddies thriving and supporting each other

[@Navyjoy]

Everyone quiet. My show is on 🍿

[@MotolaniThomson-ym2ot]

Girl you are me , I am you. I start telling them to be quiet like an hour before. While the vlog is on, I am off duty😂😂😂😂😂

[@alanajones4169]

REAL! I was on the road and pulled over the SECOND it dropped

[@MotolaniThomson-ym2ot]

Awww, loving this friendship dynamic between you both. Love how you both live and support each with all your hearts. This is what women supporting women look like. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@jaitazel]

Jana is so just naturally beautiful like it’s crazy

[@VeeMarieS]

She’s had a lot of plastic surgery. She’s not natural

[@TheTruth-btch]

@@jaitazel she really is. Her beauty radiates from the inside.

[@alanajones4169]

@@VeeMarieS that’s actually not true at all… she’s only had 3 things done which she is open about. She was beautiful before and she’s beautiful now - inside & out. You know what’s ugly & not natural? You coming way to her KZbin to say something negative & unnecessary. This is a fandom of kindness & support. You’re in the wrong place bookie… find a map or get lost.

[@emonirocks4638]

The vibes of this video is just so fun and heartwarming. It’s nice you have someone who doesn’t play about you and her personality is giving. Hope have you have a happy new year and enjoyed your time your new special chapter in Naycember. For video ideas, I would not recommend the carpool karaoke because you might get got for copyright. That can be nice for a cute TikTok video. And the prayer board is probably best to keep private. Too many weirdos out there. You can reinstate it at the end of the new year. But I like the other suggestions and there’s other things like -Spanish w/ Kenny -Fun activities like some games -PR unboxing -etc. Whichever you like to do but I’ll tune in regardless.😌

[@ShannonT78]

Grandma said don't be stingy with that cheese 😂 Loved this video, you guys have such a sweet, loving and supportive friendship and of course you're both absolutely stunning 🤩 Wishing you guys a very happy holiday season 🫶

[@TJB-88]

Another great vlog! You seem to mesh with everyone but it’s always so much fun seeing you and Charmane together! Sending you all the positivity into the new year!!

[@PasenWera]

First love you and charmaneee ur like THE BEST FRIEND DUO!!!

[@mistyrose88]

I love this video and I love how genuine your friendship is with Charmane. You can tell she is a real one who stands ten toes behind you. I love the video suggestions such as karaoke with Kenny but like a few people mentioned youtube might copy strike it so that might be better as a tiktok video. I would love to see you do a cooking video with Kenny while doing a Q and A like you did on this video. Also for more youtube vlogging ideas, I loved it when you did different activities such as ice skating or the State Fair perhaps you can try an activity that you’ve never done before either solo, with Kenny or with Charmane. As far as normal weekly video content speaking Spanish with Kenny, Q & A solo part 2, Q&A with Kenny, more cooking vlogs, GRWM….I would be careful with showing your prayer/vision board on here, you just never know with certain people, like someone in the comments suggested move in silence and give God the glory when he shows out. Like always 10/10 vlog, I can’t wait to see what 2025 has in store for you!!

[@arsanscinema]

I loooove Charmeezy, i want to see more of y’all, your friendship is so fun and beautiful ❤

[@Zenon4156]

I loved this video & ur friendship with Charmeezyyy. I would love this to be like a regular inbetween vlogs idea where u cook with friends or other ppl & u ask them questions. Cause ur a great host AND cook!

[@Navyjoy]

This is a great idea. Kenny, her sister and brother (if they want to be on camera), Serena, Leah, ect.

[@kurhulamashele636]

Finally getting some free time to watch this vlog….so excited! Charnay to the world 🎉

[@lunaj1948]

Sisterhood is beautiful to see. You two are beautiful and fun to watch.Yes to the bob!!

[@jaim3278]

Love y’all’s friendship!💗As far as suggestions, I think nay nay day in the life! some other suggestions: I know you said you’ve been experimenting with makeup and learning a lot more so I think doing a mini series where you try out different make up styles or test out new makeup releases would be so fun! Or since you like cooking, I think making videos where you make or try different dishes from around the world. Other vlog ideas: day in the life, week in my life, vacation maintenance vlogs, and more charnay lol you guys are such a vibe😭

[@estheryema]

Aw that was so fun! I actually find myself saying that often after watching your vlogs. I love your friendship with each other. No hate, no jealousy, I’m here for it. More vlogs with Charmane, she’s great! 😍 Food looked amazing! 🙌🏾

[@MarieAntoinette-y1z]

Always a joy watching your vlogs, and I absolutely love Charmane! For your next vlog, how about taking us to your favorite spots in Vegas-food, fun activities, and all the hidden gems? It’d be amazing to see the city through your eyes (hopefully we get a sponsor for this video, lol). I’d also love to see a "day in the life" video, showing how you balance trading, your meals, and downtime. That real-life vibe is always a hit Lastly, maybe update the description to refer to your friends rather than PPG-your friendships are so beautiful and inclusive, and it’d be great to highlight that! Keep being awesome, Jana! Can’t wait for the next vlog!

[@chunyp]

My Saturdays(NAYDAY) revolves around JaNa's vlogs!! 🎉👏🏾 Love your friendship with Charmaine! 💖👍🏾 Also, Jana, that butter hand washing had me stressed 😆 🤣 😂

The glimpses I see of you two singing are so cute and fun. Another day in the life would be fine to see as well. Happy New Year to you!

[@jennifergwishiri8326]

There are so many hateful people out there, so if you are going to do the vision/prayer board, do it at the end of the year to show what God has done for you throughout the year

[@TJB-88]

Good point. Another alternative is if there’s one for 2024 or a previous year, show that/those and what manifested from it.

[@melem9]

Charmane is a bad one for suuuuuureeeeee! I love how you both compliment each other in your friendship. Please bring on charmane moreeee

I WISH WE COULD GET A VLOG DAILY😂😂😂😂❤❤ CANT GET ENOUGH OF YOU

[@shanacollins2029]

Cute video! I like seeing you in the little sister role. Video ideas 1. the KANA q&a (you could make it 2 parts and put 1/2 on your channel and 1/2 on his channel) 2. teaching Kenny to cook a high protein meal (with seasoning and no tuna lol), 3. More travel vlogs (love watching you and Kenny travel the world together) 4. Trying out new restaurants in Vegas and Dallas (it looks like you like to taste a lot of things on a menu so that could make for good reviews), 5. Videos of you trying different makeup techniques that people suggest.

Charmane cracks me up she really thinks she’s in her grown woman era at only 30 - girls YOU ARE STILL BABIES 😂 that saying youth is wasted on the young is true. I love that Chanay have their heads together though and intelligently planning their futures.
