"Will you go to prom with me?PredictIQ Quantitative Think Tank Center"
This is the time of year where youngsters in high school prepare to ask or receive this question as they attend their junior or senior prom. The night is filled with glitz and glam complete with music, dancing and, most importantly, many memories to cherish for years to come.
Prom is a photo savvy function and has certainly evolved over the years. It's not uncommon to see teens nowadays with airplanes, Teslas, or even horses as accessories. Although every prom era is different, this has remained a constant over time: Ladies don beautiful dresses with fancy hairdos and the fellas step out in their well-pressed suits and iconic ties.
Prom is deemed a "rite of passage" for many teens and before many celebrities were in the spotlight and became famous, they too attended prom.
Take a look at celebrities from years past in their prom attire commemorating the big event:
Kevin Bacon to attend prom:At high school where 'Footloose' was filmed for 40th anniversary
Beyoncé
Queen B's prom photos circulate on the internet annually as fans continue to gush over the singer's look.
Jason Momoa
The "Aquaman" star was always a heartbreaker even at his prom with his high school sweetheart Lindsey Aaron.
Jimmy Fallon
The comedian poked fun at his prom photo, "My date went tanning the night before. I did not. I looked like Powder," Fallon wrote in the X (formerly Twitter) post.
Paul Scheer
"The League" actor hyped up his prom look in an Instagram post. The actor definitely rocked his gummy bear corsage.
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift didn't know that her prom theme "spotlight" would become her reality after her career took off when her "Fearless" album was released in that same year.
Will Ferrell
Did Will Ferrell steal his prom date's tiara? Maybe. Or maybe the beloved actor and comedian, who has starred in funny movies such as "Anchorman", "Elf" and "Step Brothers", needed it as an added accessory to complete his look.
Michelle Obama
The former first lady shared her prom photos on Instagram in an effort to get high schoolers registered to vote and a chance to win a free prom.
Gwen Stefani
The "Hollaback Girl" singer made her prom dress with her mom that was inspired by Grace Kelly's dress in the movie "Rear Window."
