Frankie Grande responds to viral TikTok rumor about Ariana Grande being a cannibal

Ariana Grande's older brother, Frankie Grande, recently shut down rumors about his popstar sister that has been going viral on TikTok, accusing the Thank You, Next artist of being a cannibal.

Reposting a story of the conspiracy on X on Thursday, June 11, Frankie set the record straight before the hoax can get even bigger on social media, writing:

"Wow! This might be the most creative and lowest y'all have ever gone. Reaching new depths daily!"

Frankie Grande also had a sarcastic clap back for those joking about his sister online, further commenting:

"Listen, I know my sister's been eating the girls up for years but this is a bit extreme! Besides, she's vegan. See you on tour!"

The speculation that Ariana Grande eats people started as a prank. It followed the internet trend of her fans posting outlandish allegations about the singer as a joke in an attempt to deter other people from buying Ari's concert tickets.

What started as a loose joke, however, spiraled out of control as some people began making accusations. False information was shared online about how police allegedly found human remains and evidence of cannibalism in the singer's old home in Chicago, which she sold in 2013.

Frankie Grande has always been a supportive brother

Ariana and Frankie Grande have been each other's cheerleaders, and sometimes rumor debunkers. The two seem to have a close relationship, and in April, Frankie celebrated the We Can't Be Friends singer during National Siblings Day.

Frankie Grande took to Instagram to honor his "BEST sister in the world," with a picture of them side-by-side and making goofy faces for the camera. In the caption, he appreciated his sister being there for him and for supporting him in his sobriety, writing:

"On #NationalSiblingDay, I want to take a moment to thank the BEST sister in the world for being there for me through thick and thin. From helping me with my sobriety journey to showing up for me at big moments in my life and career."

He also called the God Is a Woman singer the "best sister," further writing:

"You are the best sister anyone could ask for and I'm eternally proud of you and all the sunshine you continue to spread in this world."

Ariana, for her part, commented on her brother's post to share her love.

The Rain on Me singer also showed her support for her brother after he got a nose job. The TV host and YouTuber shared a photo of him on Instagram, still with bandages and bruising on his face following the operation, which he captioned: "New nose. Who dis?"

In the comments, the No Tears Left to Cry artist shared her love for Frankie, writing that he's "perfect in all ways, always."
