In late July, Jenna drew widespread attention when she performed at the opening ceremony of the 2026 ASEAN Cup at Morodok Techo National Stadium in Phnom Penh.
She shared the stage with singer Sambath Sok during the pre-match show as spectators waved banners and posters in support. Clips of the performance quickly spread across social media, attracting millions of views and praise for her singing and confident stage presence.

Jenna is known not only as a member of Cambodia’s royal family but also as a young cultural ambassador. She often appears at major events wearing the traditional Cambodian sampot, according to the Khmer Times.
Her image blends royal tradition with modern pop culture, helping her connect with younger audiences while maintaining strong ties to Cambodian heritage. Long referred to affectionately as the “little princess,” Jenna was formally granted the title of Royal Highness by her grand-uncle, King Norodom Sihamoni, in April 2026.

Born in Paris in 2012 to Princess Norodom Bophary and a French businessman, Jenna is a great-granddaughter of the late King Norodom Sihanouk.
She began receiving artistic training at an early age and studied opera at the Music Arts School in Phnom Penh. The South China Morning Post has described her as one of Cambodia’s most active young performers and a prominent figure among the country’s younger generation.
Jenna entered show business at the age of six, appearing in Cambodian television productions. Her acting career later earned her the Best New Actress award at the second Cambodia-Asia Film Festival in 2024 for her role in the horror movie “The Night Curse of Reatrei.”

Her music career has also expanded beyond Cambodia. She signed with South Korean agency K’ve Entertainment in 2022 before later becoming an independent artist, according to the Korea JoongAng Daily.
Jenna regularly demonstrates her language skills by performing songs in French, Thai, Chinese and English on her YouTube channel.
She has also showcased her interest in K-pop through dance covers of songs including Aespa’s “Next Level” and Blackpink’s “Pretty Savage.” In 2022, she performed her original K-pop-inspired track “The First Day Without You” at a Korea-Cambodia music festival.
Speaking to South Korea’s YTN in 2023, Jenna said she was drawn to K-pop for its modern, distinctive and energetic style, naming Blackpink, Twice and Momoland among her inspirations.
Her popularity extends into China as well. She performed Chinese-language songs on CCTV in 2023, while her official Weibo account has attracted nearly 300,000 followers.
Jenna also continues to appear on popular Cambodian television programs and has built a combined social media following of more than seven million, making her one of the country’s most visible young royals. She has also represented several major commercial brands.
Taiwan’s SET News previously suggested that Jenna could pursue a career similar to Blackpink’s Lisa and enter the K-pop industry.
Her representative later said that although she received an offer from a South Korean entertainment agency in 2023, she turned it down to prioritize her education and manage her career independently, according to The Straits Times.
