She really did go through a seemingly extra long "innocent" phase. For the longest time she dressed really modestly  (I remember people who hated Madisen used to rag on her for dressing "slutty" and comparing it to how "classy" Jennette was.) And she's always said that she didn't get her first kiss until she was 18, which is pretty late (all other rumours notwithstanding). Plus, while she still had moments where she'd freak out about things, like her music video meltdown, (which, I think if anyone had really been paying attention back then, could have seen as a giant red flag), generally speaking she was, as she herself said, much more amiable and personable well into her late teens. It really wasn't iCarly ended and she hit her 20's that she publicly started acting out.

Which sort of makes sense if you think about it. When iCarly ended, she lost this thing that had probably been keeping her sane, a place where, (again rumors notwithstanding) she had 2 positive influences in the form of Miranda and Nathan with her everyday. Feeling super vulnerable, lost, and (going by her tweets at the time) really desiring of romantic male attention, she ended up turning to Paul (who'd probably been bidding his time anyways) + got talked into doing a show she hated from the start, all while her mom's health was deteriorating and it's just been a downward spiral since. (Honestly, the happiest Jennette's seemed since iCarly ended was, ironically, the few weeks she was dating Andre right before her mom passed. She was literally tweeting everyday about how happy she was, which she never does.)

It's sad.
