The first time Shakira sees a camera phone Watch the popular video allegation made by X user

On April 3, 1973, while standing on a sidewalk on Sixth Avenue in Manhattan, New York City, Motorola’s Martin Cooper placed a call to Joel Engel, the president of AT&T-owned Bell Labs, marking the first time a mobile phone conversation was seen in public. Mobile phone technology has advanced significantly since then. These days, a mobile phone may do several tasks, such as being a computer, alarm clock, music player, camera, and TV all in one. Even while selfies, video calls, and reels are so popular these days, it’s amazing to remember that during the start of the century, cell phones with built-in cameras were quite uncommon.

On X, previously Twitter, a rumored 2002 video of famous singer Shakira showing off her pleasure at seeing a phone with a built-in camera has gone viral. According to the social media user, Shakira was first exposed to a camera phone at that point.

The singer asks a lady in the video, “Is that a camera?” with excitement. Shakira is then shown an image on the woman’s cell phone. Shakira utters the words “Oh! my gosh” upon seeing the photo and begins examining the phone in sheer wonder.

Shakira, totally astounded by the technology, asks, “This one doesn’t function in America no?And God, imagine what the paparazzi will all be like.

Shakira finds it hard to believe that even videos may be made with the gadget until the lady begins to capture a video of her.

One of the most beautiful historical films I have ever seen, aww. See how Shakira was in awe,” a user said.

“I’m not sure how interested she would be in viewing the phone. “‘How’ would be the only question she would ask,” another user said.

Whoa. And now a third user said, “She has like a million camera phones clicking at her.”

A fourth user said, “She’s like what is this magic picture machine.”
