Prom: The Celebrity Experience

Spring is here and what does that mean to teens? PROM!! Every teen, at least the ones I know, are preparing for one of the biggest nights of their high school lives, celebrity high school students included. They're buying gowns, renting tuxedos, making hair and nail appointments, and renting limos to help enjoy a night that will be remembered forever. High-School-Musical-Prom Ever wonder if the stars we love go to the prom? Well, here are a few stories our favorite stars shared with TeenHollywood about their prom experiences: MichaMichael-Steger-90210-Promel Steger - Navid from 90210:
My strongest prom memory is bad. I volunteered to be the big man. I'd just got my license and I'm like 'hey guys, I've got a jeep. I can fit a lot of you in and I'll take you to prom.' Everybody was like 'yeaaah!' But my date made me nervous and so I was driving to prom a nervous wreck. I'm like 'there's my exit.' 'No! That's not the street' so I veered back on the freeway. I could not focus. So I think by the time I got to the prom, I'd scared everyone driving like a maniac. On the way back nobody wanted to drive back with me.... even my date.
Tristan-Wilds-90210-promTristan Wilds - Dixon 90210:
Michael has so many funny stories it's... not even funny. I was doing "The Wire" (on TV) and I was suppose to be going to prom and I didn't know if I would be able to go or not. They said, 'okay, you can go but you can't cut your hair.' So I had my hair all just weirded out. It was bad! I didn't even have time to ask for a date. They told me I could go to prom like a week before. Everybody was taken. I had to find a suit in a week. It was so bad.
vanessa-hudgens-high-school-musical-promVanessa Hudgens - High School Musical:
I did not go to prom. My only prom memory is High School Musical which was a big fake prom but I still go to get all dressed up and have a date (Zac) and have my best friends there. So, my memory is that it was a lot of fun!
sterling-knight-sonny-with-a-chance-promSterling Knight - Chad, Sonny with a Chance:
Well, I did not go to prom. I started home-schooling as soon as I was halfway through ninth grade. That was so I could move out to California and start pushing my dream of becoming an actor. I really wasn't that upset about it. I knew, from a very young age, I wanted nothing to do with high school and these people and their problems that were.... well, everything was the end of the world for these people. It was very petty and naive and maybe, in hindsight, I shouldn't have been so up front about the fact that I thought it was naive and immature. It's not easy to make friends where you're telling people they're naive.
HW-Miley-Cyrus-changing-her-image-for-sex-appeal I did not go to my prom in high school or any other dance... I just wasn't into the whole dance scene, but I did spend a lot of time being a naive, fun-loving, immature teen. That, I wouldn't change for the world. What's your favorite prom or high school memory?

    the stars that assume that high school is full of naive people are naive themselves...sorry but do you really think the people that surround you in Hollywood are real true people they are the most fake, selfish, naive people you'll ever meet. For me high school was great, I have a lot of memories that I will cherish. I am proud to say that my teenage years were full of stupid acts because that's what normal teenagers are like.

    Prom was a horrible night for me. I had the most fun in the limo, laughing with friends, at Denny's later that night. Trust me...they are not missing out on much.

    I wish people would quit saying how bad it is to be home-schooled
    I think I would of finished school back when I was a teenager if this was an option for me.... I just got sick of all the drama that went on in
    high school! I think that going to high school dances was fun but nothing compared to the parties these teens are going to in Hollywood!

    The home-school kids are missing out on prom. This is an experience one shouldn't miss. Prom is a fun night and makes memories for years. As for Sterling Knight, you are not any better than "these people." There is just as much drama in the Hollywood scence. You really shouldn't judge others before looking at yourself. Plus, "these people" are making memories that you won't be able to look back on someday.
