Could Kelly Rowland have used the =HYPERLINK() function to message Nelly?

The Kelly Rowland/Nelly songDilemmafeatures an infamous scene amongst nerds where Kelly Rowland tries to send a message to Nelly using aNokia 9210 Communicator.

Unfortunately, she does this using the built in spreadsheet program and receives no reply.

People suggested she might be using the =HYPERLINK() function in Excel, but would that even work?
