Internet's hilarious reactions to Addison Rae listening to a song using an iPod Nano

Because of the singer's choice of listening to music by listening to it via an iPod Nano, fans poked fun at Addison, commenting that her vibe is giving 2007, the period wherein old school gadgets and advancing technologies met!

Fans also trolled Addison Rae, saying that only her millennial fans will understand that she's listening with an iPod Nano because these millennials are the very people who tried using the music gadget when they were young. (via X/@UngratefulBardi)

Other fans also joked that the singer is 19 years too late when it comes to having an iPod Nano, commenting that if these were the middle 00s, it's cool, but now that we're in the 20s, it's somewhat weird. But hey, maybe we can have an iPod Nano renaissance, right?

"Girl you’re 19 years too late i fear" - another fan added (via X/@aarianagrdnndx)

Some fans also clowned the singer, stating that now that she posted a video of her using an iPod Nano, the prices of a used iPod Nano will increase by 200%! (via X/@southerstonerd)

Fans also roasted Addison, asking if she was alive when the iPod Nano came out.

"Was she even alive when that iPod came out?" - another fan asked (via X/@new2adultVR)

X users also hilariously suggested that even if Ms. Rae is using an iPod Nano, her fans will not understand what its functions are because her fans are Gen Zs and Gen Alphas!

"I don’t even think her fans know what an IPod is" - an X user replied (via X/@psi_snake)

Other X users also LOLed at Addison Rae bringing the iPod Nanos back, stating that the singer is trying so hard to bring back the Tumblr era vibes, but it ain't working, girl.

"She want to bring back tumblr era so bad but it ain’t working" - another X user remarked (via X/@Sourire_dHarry)

And finally, X users humurously shared that Addison using an iPod Nano is a recession indicator because their moms are still using their iPod Nanos!

"Literally my mom just asked me to buy her a charger for her ipod nano, this is defo a recession indicator" - another X user commented (via X/@agirlnamedairam)

Bringing back the 2000s: iPod Nano

Because we're on the verge of nostalgia—especially with gadgets and cool 00s stuff, of course, musicians are also riding the nostalgia wave by using the things that they were too young to use when they were kids during the 00s, and Addison Rae is no stranger to this trend!

iPod Nano is one of Apple's innovations during the 00s that makes you listen to music and even watch movies or series. Unfortunately, Apple discontinued the iPod Nano 8 years ago, making the music gadget obsolete and hard to find in this day and age.

Fortunately, Addison Rae and other artists are embracing the old style of listening to music, so who knows, maybe Apple will revive the magic of iPods so that the younger generation can also experience it in its full glory!


All thanks to Addison Rae and other young artists, the demand for old music gadgets like iPod Nano piqued the younger generation's interest, so please, Apple, bring the iPods back to life!
