Frankie Jonas Pranks Top Influencers Into Posing With His Scientology Chain

Earlier this week, the lesser-known Jonas Brother Frankie Jonas went viral on TikTok with a video showing off rapid-fire photos of some of TikTok's most popular creators and influencers unknowingly posing with a Scientology chain. The video has since been deleted by Frankie but was quickly reposted to Twitter.

The video begins with Frankie posing with the chain around his neck and the on-screen text reading, "Wear my Scientology chain and pose." It then transitions into a rapid-fire montage of TikTokers posing with the chain, including names like Lil Huddy, Noah Beck, Charli D'Amelio and Suni Lee, an Olympic gold medalist.

The video has caused some backlash against the influencers in question, who seem eager and happy to pose with the "Scientology Symbol," as it's called on the official Scientology website. Mainly, people are confused why these influencers would pose with a symbol that they assumedly know nothing about beforehand.

happy tuesday to the agents that have to explain to their tiktokers why it was a bad idea to pose with the scientology necklace for frankie jonas

While many are praising Jonas for the prank, others are criticizing him for doing it at all, deeming it unfair and a desperate move to gain clout. Others are curious why he has the Scientology necklace at all, although there is no evidence to support Jonas being a Scientologist. It is also unclear why Jonas deleted the original video from his TikTok page.

frankie jonas was dead wrong for that one but i hope the photos never ever disappear from the internet they’re GOLDDD

so let me get this straight, frankie jonas bought a scientology necklace (as in the cult) and thought it would be funny to have a bunch of young influencers take photos with it to post on tiktok and people are still siding with him and saying it was their own fault
