We would never ever say that tech in the 2000s was better than tech in the '90s. But if there's anything that could possibly change our minds, it's photos of celebrities rocking throwback gadgets from the age of Juicy Couture sweatsuits and trucker hats. Because looking back, they're the ones who made those Pink Razrs to the T-Mobile Sidekicks (RIP) look so cool. In case you forgot, these 15 photos will give you a hilarious trip down memory lane.

Paris Hilton + pink MotoRAZR + 2006 = your youth.

Aww! Lindsay Lohan looks like a BABY sporting her iRiver MP3 Player in 2003.

Avril Lavigne thinks, "IDGAF about this Joybee 102R MP3 Player," in 2004.

Anyone surprised Fergie had a bedazzled T-Mobile Sidekick II? No.

Rare smiling Kanye West sighting. In 2005. Thanks to iPod.

It's 2004, and a tan Nicole Ritchie can't wait to eat her rhinestone-covered T-Mobile Sidekick II.

Neither can a more grown-up Lindsay Lohan.

Ahh, Keira Knightley wanted to bite her tech, too. Make it stop.

Remember when Jay Z designed a limited-edition line of Audemars Piguet watches and iPods in 2005? Neither do we. But P. Diddy probably does.

If we bring the River MP3 player back, can Nick Lachey and Jessica Simpson come back together, too?

Don't you ever question the love Ice Cube had for the iRiver MP3.

Joel Madden solidly repping the T-Mobile Sidekick — with Fergie, duh.

"Princess" Ashanti probably wrote a secret ballad about the Juice Box MP3 Player she loved so much.

How much do you think that iPod would sell for now just because John Krasinski touched it in 2005?

And finally, Jennifer Love Hewitt loved her T-Mobile phone so, so, so, so, soooo much.
