The joke is itâs ârags to richesâ because she went from driving her momâs Porsche (a luxury sports car brand) to having her own special ordered Porsche. If theyâve got a Porsche the only rags theyâve seen are the ones they use so they donât have to touch poor people
I appreciate it, but you re-explained the parts that I did understand. Who is this Jennie? Why does their parent have a porche? Whoâs the person commenting (in the event that it matters vs just some random internet person)./
Since this seems to be about a singer (not that I knew, itâs in the comments), I guess they refer to before their first album release or something like that.
Honestly, it doesnât really matter, the joke works without knowing who it is. But it looks like this was the singer âJennieâ from a Korean Girl Group called Blackpink. A lot of these groups will swap out members to keep the fame and fans of the group but allow talent to move on/retire, looks like Jennie is a new member and sheâs doing so well because she was able to order her own Porsche. Yay for Jennie pulling herself up by her gold inlaid bootstraps.
I was curious about the family connection. Was the mother already rich/famous? It implies the subject didnât buy her mom the first car, so I assume so. The wikipedia linked didnât have anything for a ctrl+f on âmotherâ

The person commenting is being sarcastic.
