About

The "Put a Girl On" Taco Bell Phone Prank refers to a prank that involves calling a fast-food restaurant and repeatedly asking the male employee who answers to put a girl on the phone. The trend was started on TikTok by a TikToker named @putagirlon who began by calling a Taco Bell every day until they put a girl on. His series of viral videos documenting the stunt-inspired memes that imagined the reaction of the Taco Bell employees hearing the phrase "put a girl on." In many of the videos, the employees get extraordinarily mad and berate the prankster on the phone. In some of the clips, the TikToker showed up at the actual Taco Bell location where the employees threw drinks, yelled and attacked him.
