We know you can’t get enough of looking at (or laughing at) celebrities in their throwback prom pictures. Therefore, we decided to hit you one last time with a flurry of photos of the stars (before they were stars) and their dates on the biggest night of their young lives. Let’s get to it!

Tamron Hall

Say what you want about petticoats, but Tamron Hall claims that at her high school prom, this huge pink gown helped her get voted “Best Dressed.” She went with her best friend, whose hairstyle was as tall as Hall’s…

 

Frank Ocean

Frank clearly gave zero you know whats about his prom look. While his date threw on a heavily printed gown (and a corsage), Ocean wore one of those office short sleeve shirts (or just rolled up the sleeves) and a polka dot tie. But hey, at least he pulled out a smile for the pictures…?

 

Lil Flip

This one is for all my H-Town people. Before the braids, the tattoos and the grills (and my jam “Game Over”), Flip cleaned up nicely for the Worthing High School prom. Both the rapper and his date dressed up in their best shiny satin ensembles for their big night.

 

Matthew McConaughey

Alright, alright, alright! The Academy Award winner looked quite dapper at the Longview High School senior prom with his date. I’m still trying to figure out what material her top is (What is that, velvet!?) but they look cute nonetheless.

 

Gwen Stefani

We haven’t seen Gwen Stefani this toned down in her looks since she became a huge star. Pink hair, braces, bleach blond locks, Harajuku Girls style–Stefani is known for keeping it colorful. But for prom at Loara High in Anaheim, surprisingly, she stuck with simple black. And did you notice that her date is No Doubt bassist (and ex-boyfriend) Tony Kanal?
