VJ Ja Nattaweeranuch Thongmee recently appeared at the FEED x Khaosod Awards 2026 at IconSiam, where she gave an interview about her current work focusing on health and wellness content while also discussing the flooding crisis impacting her neighborhood. Her home in Nanglomsuan sits in a flood-affected area, with water reaching approximately mid-thigh depth on her soi. Water did not enter her house itself but affected the surrounding area, where residents have resorted to using small boats for transportation and many vehicles remain abandoned. She expressed concern about unpredictable weather patterns and the difficulty residents face in coping with sudden flooding, but noted she is fortunate to have an alternative exit route.
Regarding her acting career, Ja mentioned she has pending role offers but is currently prioritizing health and wellness content creation. She emphasized that she is selective about acting projects, choosing only those she feels genuinely passionate about, and noted that viewers continue to discuss her past work long after it airs. She encouraged fans to follow her across all social media platforms.
When asked about being seen as a health and wellness role model at 35 and beyond, Ja clarified she is actually in her 40s and believes beauty and value come from self-care rather than age. She stressed the importance of self-worth, saying people should value themselves first rather than seeking validation from others. She described her approach as balanced, focusing on self-care without creating stress, and invited followers to keep up with her on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok at the handle vj_ja.
