\n\tJack White<\/a> finally owns a cell phone \u2014 and it only took him 50 years to get one. The musician celebrated his milestone birthday on Wednesday by receiving an extra-special gift: his first-ever cell phone. \u201cWell y\u2019all it\u2019s either all over for me now or just the beginning. I am now the reluctant owner of a cellular telephone for the first time in my life,\u201d White wrote in an Instagram post.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe musician revealed that his wife and fellow musician, Olivia Jean, gave him the cell phone. He shared several photos taken by Jean, showing White awkwardly holding an iPhone, looking utterly perplexed and unsure how to hanlde the device.<\/p>\n

\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019ve been saying that my days were numbered for years,\u201d White said in the caption, explaining that as the modern world continues to depend on smartphones, it was time for him to join the 21st century. \u201cCan\u2019t listen to my music in my car, can\u2019t park at a parking lot by myself because of QR codes, etc. etc. and I guess Olivia decided to be kind and put me (and all my loved ones) out of my misery,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhite finished his caption with the most hipster-inclined quote ever: \u201cI thought if I could make it to 50 years old at least without ever having one that I could be proud of myself, and I am. Can\u2019t wait to talk to you all soon. My phone number is the square root of all of our combined social interaction times Pi.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWho knows, maybe we\u2019ll get Jack White selfies next?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
