This year saw many well-known items reach their 50th milestone. The 2025 TV schedule marked the 50th season of Saturday Night Live. Last month, Jaws celebrated its 50th anniversary. Notably, Jack White, lead singer of The White Stripes, turned 50 just yesterday. While I’m still processing the idea that such a talented musician is now half a century old, his age is as shocking as the gift he received – his first cell phone, given to him by his wife, Olivia Jean. It’s hard for me to decide which detail is more astonishing.
While fellow birthday twin Tom Hanks literally jumped into his celebrations, White seemed to take his usual cool, low-key stance when it came to festivities. The big surprise first cellular device fact, and the actual present were commemorated by a post on Instagram. He explained why he finally okayed the piece of tech to come into his life, and accompanied it with a small collection of pictures of him with the gift, all provided by Jean.

Among the exciting and unexpected events in 2025 for movies, TV, and music, particularly The Raconteurs guitarist’s celebrations, has taken me by surprise this year. Having come of age during the latter part of The White Stripes era, I always admired the duo as the ultimate symbol of youthful and trendy musicians. Therefore, learning that he is associated with milestones like the beginning of Saturday Night Live and Jaws in pop culture history leaves me slightly bewildered.
To put it simply, I’m taken aback and a bit envious that he managed to go without a cell phone for this long. Although the invention of phones has indeed been beneficial, I can’t help but wish I shared his experience. However, as he pointed out, they are essential in certain aspects of life, such as scanning QR codes or parking in parking lots.

Furthermore, this phone should prove useful given that Jack White embarked on a tour following the release of his “No Name” album last year.
Despite his nearly 30-year career in the industry, he continues to astonish his audience. With an impressive catalog of music and occasional collaborations alongside top artists in movies, even when not taking the lead role, his talent shines through. Notably, he recently played a significant part in the movie “Killers of the Flower Moon,” which can be streamed with an Apple TV+ subscription.
While I’m unsure about the specific surprises awaiting us during the forthcoming rounds of Jack White’s musical battle, I am certain that they will be captivating and I eagerly anticipate them.
