Frankie Jonas wants brother Joe Jonas to go on ‘Love Island’
Joe Jonas just can’t help but tease his baby brother Frankie, who’s 11 years younger than him.
The singer pranked Frankie in a video for Elle magazine published Tuesday by pretending that he had been invited to be a “bombshell” on the TV dating show Love Island, which means that he would come in and shake things up on the series meant to put couples together. (The video notes that it was recorded before the Love Island season finale, which is set to air next month.)
“I’ve been asked to be a ‘bombshell’ on Love Island, and I think it could be kind of amazing,” Joe says in the video below. He then explains that, since he doesn’t watch the show, he thought he should put the question to Frankie.
His brother is excited, to say the least.
“Holy, s—! Holy s—!” he says, before adding that there’s a 70 percent chance that it’s “the most legendary s— ever. Like, of all time.”
“So you’re leaning on ‘yes’?” asks Joe.
To which Frankie retorts, “I’d lean on ‘that’s the f—ing most epic s— ever!'”

The Jonas clan is obviously well acquainted with the reality dating show. Just last week, Nick Jonas compared the series to a 2008 experience he had in real life, while competing on the Disney Channel Games.
“For those that don’t know,” he told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, “the Disney Channel Games were basically the Olympics, but where they would bring in a hundred-ish Disney Channel stars from all over the world and make us compete in silly games. But what it really was, was like Love Island on crack.”
For what it’s worth, Joe is legally single, following the split from his wife, Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner, in September.
