2002 Footage Of Kelly Rowland Re-Emerges Online–And It’s Still As Confusing As Ever

Everything was super weird back in the early 2000’s. No matter what we do now when we look back at what we did as kids – it was just f*cking ridiculous. All of the pathetic, depressing away messages over a guy, telling people to “hit the cell” even though you were still sitting on your computer looking at new MySpace backgrounds to load. Oh, and don’t even get me started on the fashion. Weird, awkward and not cute at all. To prove my points, I give you Kelly Rowland circa 2002. Twitter user @finah found an old music video Rowland was in that showed her texting a guy but getting angry when he didn’t respond (aka all R&B music videos in the early 2000’s). But, when the camera zoomed into her phone, it seems that Rowland was writing things on what appears to be Microsoft Excel. Weird? I think so.

I mean, this guy has a point. In 2002, we never head “read receipts” or iPhones and we had no idea if someone even got our texts. In fact, I can remember quite a few times that I “broke up” with “boyfriends” (AKA 2-week relationships) because I thought they were dodging my texts. It happens. Obviously, Twitter was both confused and entertained at the same time – and, apparently, it was relatable.
