Footage of Cee-Lo Green's Cell Phone Exploding in His Hand Surfaces

Many are speculating that it was the Samsung Galaxy Note 7.

A video of Cee-Lo Green's cell phone exploding in his hand while in use has surfaced. The footage shows Green falling onto the floor of a recording studio from his chair and laying motionlessly after the explosion. Ultimately, it is unknown what brand the phone in question is, but it would make sense that the faulty device shown in the clip is a Samsung Galaxy Note 7. It is also unclear when the video was recorded.

Earlier this year, Samsung recalled and discontinued production of the Galaxy Note 7 after reported cases of exploding phones due to overheating. After a second run of replacement phones for the ones that first caught on fire, over 93% of Samsung's US customers have returned the phone, according to CNET.

Neither Cee-Lo Green nor Samsung have responded to the video yet, leading some to suspect that the surveillance footage might be fake. Others have pointed out whether or not the footage is indeed real, Samsung's reputation will nonetheless continue to diminish.
