Hello! My name is Jenna Suffern and I am a comedian, producer and writer.
I could list what I have done to prove to you that I didn’t pay for my blue tick on Instagram but the only real achievement worth mentioning is that about 6 years ago a stranger came up to me and said “I know you. You’re a prominent Sydney Lesbian”.
Does that make sense?
the court jester in all their glory
this is the online bit:
At least twice a day a song will come up on Spotify and I think “if I just had one singing lesson I reckon I could really nail this” Have I ever had a singing lesson before? No. That’s not important. I just like KNOW deep in my heart I’d crush it. Recent songs include:
The grudge - Olivia Rodrigo
Vertigo - Griff Defying gravity
The wickedly talented Idena Menzel and Kristen Chenoweth (I play both parts)
It’s just really funny to me. Like people posting about what’s happening in their life but in like business talk. Silly!

I can’t explain this. but if you watch RHOBH you get it and also can’t stop screaming NAME ‘EM!
this the irl bit:
A moment in time at 4am
I was grossly reminded last week that I’m the “chronically online girlfriend” as I woke up at 4am in a PANIC to discover that I had no service (thanks Optus). I chose in this moment at 4am to wake my girlfriend up in a panic to “QUICKLY CHECK IF YOU HAVE SERVICE”. Turns out she did not agree that this was a live or die situation.
Saying “god forbid a girl has hobbies”
@mattxiv recently posted this Instagram story which yes is online (read above) BUT I have REALLY been enjoying saying “god forbid a girl has hobbies” since seeing the insta story. Please note you can only say it in response of things that should not be hobbies. But I don’t need to explain to you how comedy works.
Concerts R Fun!
Last week I went to TWO (2) in real life concerts and they were very fun. I saw bad ass musician Big Wett and the sister I never had who would have taught me how to kiss boys and then out me as a lesbian to myself, Cat Cohen. Both were fun reminders that I do in fact like to leave the house and it’s okay to be in bed past 10pm!
mwazies!
