Jonas Brothers Introduce Kid Brother Frankie -- Or 'Bonus Jonas' -- To MTV Audience On 'TRL'





Just in case ternary aren't sufficiency to go around, there's one more Jonas brother.


At 7 long time old, Frankie � a.k.a. "Bonus Jonas" � is camera-ready. He made his MTV debut this hebdomad on "TRL," along with his far-famed brothers. And by blood association alone, this kid knows a thing or two about mugging for the camera.


"Actually, I don't really know [how I got the nickname]," he said on "TRL," his older brothers by his side. "It just came up, and people started talking to me and going, 'Hey, Bonus Jonas,' and I was like, 'Hey, any.' "
