Brad Pitt chose an unconventional grey suit and tie for his prom back in the 80s. And underneath his almost mullet hairstyle, you can still see the makings of People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive. You can also be sure it was the 80s thanks to Pitt and his date’s hairstyles – they state loud and proud just which decade those locks belonged to.
As for his date, she chose a white dress that, at first glance, makes this look like a wedding photo shoot. Today she must be star-struck looking back at this photo. This lucky lady was actually one of Brad’s first loves and his high school sweetheart. That’s a fun story to share!
Reese Witherspoon
At first glance, this looks like Reese Witherspoon’s look-alike daughter, Ava. But if you study the photo closely, you can see a very young Reese. It’s a bit of a challenge to see from the black and white photo exactly what her prom look was, but it looks like she chose to keep her dress, hair, and jewelry simple and beautiful.
What is incredibly clear from the photo is that Reese has barely aged, and her elegant class has stayed the same through the years. We mean, the fact that even now she's constantly confused with her daughter is pretty impressive.
Meryl Streep
Here we have one of the most legendary acting icons in Hollywood today - Meryl Streep. Fans know that Meryl doesn’t do any of her performances halfway and, years ago, she even went all out for prom! Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and full of youth, Meryl was glowing at her prom in 1967.
This was a good few years before Meryl's screen debut, but it was clear that she had that star quality from the start. While managing to let her natural beauty shine through, she chose a graceful dress that included arm-length gloves. Meryl is certainly sporting a '60s debutante look here, but it looks lovely on her -- and so does her date.
Will Ferrell
Will Ferrell was pulling classic Will Ferrell moves by stealing his date’s tiara for himself. Other than that, Will kept to the typical attire - except that he was missing his suit jacket and stuck with only the shirt and bowtie for this picture. Still, we have a feeling he didn't let that get in the way of any fun.
His date chose to accessorize with some unique necklaces to compliment her black dress, but her best accessory that night was her beaming smile. After all, having Will Ferrell as your prom date can hardly make for a lackluster night.
Demi Lovato
Coral is a great color on Demi Lovato, and it looked even better in this strapless dress. There is a touching backstory to this photo of her and her date. Apparently, Demi went to her friend Nolan’s prom to fulfill a childhood promise she had made.
We bet neither of them expected that Demi would be the megastar she ended up becoming by the time of the prom. And here in 2010, Demi had already secured celebrity status, which may have caused a stir at the event. But she still looked like she was having a blast just attending a friend’s high school prom.
