The #FlashbackFriday trend on social media brought with it an epic blast from the past, featuring singer Shakira.

The resurfaced video from 2002 has captured the singer's epic reaction to seeing a phone with a camera for the first time. The now hilarious reaction has helped the video rake in just under a million views on Twitter, with fanclubs resharing the clip.

In the video, the pop icon is visibly astonished as she watches in amazement as an Asian fan takes her photos on the flip phone. The singer and a member of her team seemed even more amused when the lady revealed that the phone could also take video recordings.

Her genuine amazement and curiosity was evident when she said, "Is that a camera?" and went on to see the picture that the lady clicked.

The lady informs her that the electronic device was not available in the US, to which she said, "Thank god, because imagine all the paparazzi taking pictures."

The clip has delighted fans and netizens alike, with many dubbing the video as "so ICONIC!"

Another chimed in agreement, "That’s so iconic and only 20 years later we have like 4 cameras on our phones."
