The looks, I guess they cant figure out if you Black, Indian or Coloured. You have a distinct look to you.
I’ve always wondered what her nationality is
@@monae2ishshe did an ancestry test. She’s 100% American. Im guessing shes culturally Caribbean as well, just on putting 2 and 2 together with the stories she tells.
Nationality is definitely USA, you dont need an ancestry test for that. I think what you mean is ethnicity. She said something about getting a Sudanese visa un Egypt, so I assumed maybe shee might have Sudanese ancestry. Anyway I don't know anything about this lady so take that with a grain of salt.
@@monae2ish she's just black american
People stare at you because they acknowledge your beauty.
Thats what i said.
That’s so funny you posted this cause I was thinking to myself “Maryjane fits perfectly in SA. She would thrive there. “
South Africans are affectionate, but on the list of other things, we are starers.I don't know if we do it in wonder or if we focus our attention on that person.We don't tire of just looking at you,when you catch us starring we smile ...but we are generally kind, we talk with strangers as if we have always known you,when you don't greet us we think ,you think you're better than us ! Stay safe and look simple .❤
Agree 100% with you..we speak to everyone and yes we openly stare...with good intentions....probably even trying to get their attention to great them.
Girly your skin is glowing
The energy is like night and day between living in USA and traveling overseas. Stay safe✈️
That beef biltong you picked up and left 3:05 is the best thing would've picked, tasted and ate. Nothing beats that snack.
Because you look beautiful
When we see beauty we stare, believe me.
The looks....sometimes it's trying to figure out what language to use
Lol, yeah... we look at each other, to compliment, to see if you're OK... in simple terms, we like to acknowledge each other
I think you should research weather/climate accessibility to your preferences and needs food etc, cost of living to make best decision. Perhaps wearing the faux fur in hot weather draws stares?
Exactly 😂❤
💯😂
Yes!! Mary Jane! Absolutely. Do whatever makes you happy..
Yep! MOve to S.A.!!!🎉 I can't wait to visit S.A. it's the highest place on my bucket list along with Ghana
People stare because you seem to be a mix we are not familiar with… and beautiful
I'm part Ethiopian & people do the same thing to me lol. I was bullied a lot growing up for looking different- I just embrace It now.
It's not America that's the problem, its certain Americans thats the problem. The passionate and loving people are mixed in with the irate and hateful people in America. All Americans are not in the same category as them. It's such division here but it's also love with the rest of us who long for harmony and peace.
Excellent answer. I love my country America and I try to live in harmony and love with fellow Americans no matter their race.
Woolworths is comparable to Whole Foods only more affordable.
It’s better than Whole Foods. There was a scandal that some of WF products are not organic and some are even sourced from China.
You absolutely should. I’m moving there at the end of this month.
how do you do it? Maryjane thank you for reviewing Joburg positively!
Honestly I have noticed all africans stare there and in Ghana . To them it is not rude like it is in America.
They stare in Japan, did you not get stared at there? When I was traveling in Asia we were constantly stared at. It’s weird.
Trying to figure out what are you mixed with 😂
Good luck and God speed on your journey.
& yes you should for SURE move there. I will be watching every vlog when you do ❤
They stare at the headphones, you look scared too.
Beautiful. I saw a guy on Black Hikers Unite hiking group he's also a traveler that's visited 100 countries his name is Anthony Hare
Lol 😂 I agree with you on the service in the States. We were in NY in 2018 and I was so shocked at how aggressive staff were..it's wild 😅 BTW we do have road rage in SA but it's not often.
Abouf the long stare...... People are trying to place you... Where are you from? , etc. Just curious. Good news is in Cape Town you will see your double for sure. 😂....
A completely different mix of people... All living in peace😊😊😊.
They stare because they think you're Ethiopian. Mary Jane, that's the answer.😊
Move anywhere but USA right now too much drama. I'd go back to Kyoto.
lol you’re speaking my mind. Japan is such a dream 😅
USA is getting worse. The mental illness is through the roof. Japan sounds like a blast!✈️
I'd stare too coz you're pretty 😂
They stare 'cos you look exotic. They can't place where you're from
Safe travels 🛍️✈️ 🛫 🌍 Yeah Woolie's as We Call it is the best place to purchase the best quality food items.
I love u mary jane ✨....be careful and be aware of your surroundings look between 4:24-4:28 the guy behind u
She said when hell freeze over I’m weak Mary Jane standing on business
14:30 Someone is not used to her own breathtaking beauty 🤣🤣 Cute! 😍🥰 We stare at beauty.
stop exaggerating bro she looks very average
@@yan1914she actually doesn’t look average at all. What do you look it ?
Osiyo, do whatever makes you happy but vacationing isn't permanently living: Injoy!
I just knew you would love SA😊
Long stare is admiring like saying you’re beautiful!
Wait until you arrive in Cape Town. They call us slaapstad. Everything moves slower this side even traffic
I will stare at you when I see you because I see beauty, especially when it's natural. Yes you do look Ethiopian.
Yes!
because your beautiful
Yes move there !!
You look like Indian my dear bcos you gained alot of glowing since you arrived here in SA. The weather here is great indeed.
Tell Trump to leave us alone
They see beauty. There must be something unique about you.
you look exotic
You know what to do if you want to make yourself happy.Relocate
That's so true about how people in the U.S get very angry in traffic. In Florida, especially cutting people off might get you flipped off and cussed out.💀🙈
Love ur content Maryjane
They admire you
Some have you tube they are happy to see you
We dont usually tell when we admire a person we dont k ow - we just stare
It's a pick of influence according to ur observation
They stare because of the headphones - donning that look isn’t normal these parts. Looks weird.
I think they admire you
They no shops in Zimbabwe😢
Mary jane i know what you mean im getting out of America to very sorry
Just got to san diego. People staring at me like they see Jesus or alien or something. Crazy . I think we are glowing.
Lmao. We? Uhm... sure😂
South Africans are very friendly 😂😢 and you also look familiar
❤❤
The stares are because you look "exotic" ,and beautiful of course
😮 are you serious, they have a woolsworth there. That looks nothing like the woolsworth when i was a kid 😂
Don’t let your imagination get best you baby 😎
You look a little exotic and had to place racially if you get what I mean
Yup, people here are probably staring because they're trying to figure out her race
@@patriciatembo8881 she's american
In your opinion, who's running the country?
SANS stare at people trust me they are not aware of it. They will LOOOOOK !!!
I thought Japan was your favorite?
@cydnicolquitt3429 As of right now Japan is her favorite, however, she's still not done visiting other countries. So that can easily change.
They stare at your beautiful exotic looks. ❤
Oh wow, i havent seen one of your videos in such a long time; its been years but you look the same; you havent aged one day
You different in a good way...Indian Ethiopian kinda like
Pls don't make hasty decisions without going to Ghana & compare the 2.
Ghana is known for safety & great hospitality.
Nuff respect for your hustle.
Bless up🙏🙏💖
Please take a permanent resident, we love you ❤❤😂😂🇿🇦🙏
The steers are worse in Rwanda
They just want to know what you're about
Yes move here
America don’t want to take accountability of the wrong doings they’ve done to other people so the tension grows nobody can come together 8:34
You’re getting stares because you’re recording yourself. Unfortunately some Black South Africans do stare when they see something that’s unusual, and it’s not common for people to vlog so they’re trying to see what you’re doing.
I’ve noticed the stares when I try to record videos to make a reel for Instagram and it makes me feel awkward.
Hi, MaryJane. I was wondering if you're single or have you ever dated anyone that you've met during your travels?
If I'm not mistaken she's mentioned that she's engaged to a European
She's definitely not single. She's engaged.
Im in America and 95% of the people around me are sweet as can be lmao. I've seen more times I can count people bumping into someones car and they just wave it off...lmao.
One thing I realized from frequenting Xiaohongshu (Rednote) is that Americans complain A LOT and have a lopsided negative bias towards America lol. We're overdramatic AF
Are you living in the South per chance?
Please go to Soweto by train. Find Mandelas house.
Worst idea ever! Ufuna amaphara amqwenge Umntana.
Kodwa Elizabeth, what type of suggestion is that. It's like telling a tourist in the USA to take a train to East Harlem.
Native NY'er here - You can absolutely walk around East Harlem. Idk what you heard but you're more likely to be the victim of a crime on 42nd street downtown 😂
True peace and security forever will be enjoyed under heavenly kingdom rule coming shortly and righteous mankind will live in harmony in perfect conditions.
Gen 1:27-30; Psalms 37:10,11,29;83:18; Matt 24:3,14,42,44; John 17:3; Rev 21:1-5
Most women there don’t look like u
You should Def move in.
Being that you're a TH-cam celebrity, people see you as if they were looking at a famous actor, saying to themselves, "is that so and so?" IMO. Thanks for sharing the video.
😂😂 it's talking while filming, it grabs attention
Maybe they are staring at the Apple headphones..it’s like wearing a Mercedes keychain around your neck 🤣
Yeah cause it's the 1st time people in Rosebank have seen Apple headphones🙄
That's definitely not the case.
You look racially ambiguous😅
I also followed you to stare😅😅
You should greet them learn the culture please are you ok?
Stop putting your own country down. The United States is not perfect, but it is one of the best countries in the world. Look at all the people who are risking their lives to come to the United States.
It’s also fair that she shares things from her experience/perspective.
I’ve met Americans before when they were volunteering in my country and they were all shocked at how friendly the people are here.
They risk their lives because they are clueless about life there. US is not what it's cracked out to be. Especially these days.
She not putting down the US, I noticed the mean-spirited, angry people. I have traveled many times outside of the country, and the people I met were very friendly and happy.
They're risking their lives for economic activities... That's all
When hell freezes over I like that😅😅😅😅
Staring airpods 😅
We only state at gorgeous demure women
As South Africans, we are the most hated, you will lose a lot, just visit.
