Much like you and me, even celebrities go through awkward stages during high school – as you’ll see in the following photos. Although nowadays it’s hard to find a photo of a celebrity that hasn’t been digitally altered to perfection, we were able to find an entire collection of snapshots from before these stars rose to fame, from the days when they were sweet young adults not yet knowing what the future had in store for them. Read on to see what your favorite celebs looked like in their high school prom.

Jessica Alba

Although she gained worldwide fame after starring in the movie Honey (2003), Jessica Alba was once just a regular high school girl. Today, dressing up for a red carpet event is her biggest fashion challenge, and once, it was choosing the right dress for prom. For her prom, she chose a navy and white dress with a floral hairpiece. Her date looks pretty darn happy to be at prom with her, and for good reason!

While the vast majority of us hadn’t quite reached our peak in high school, Jessica Alba hardly looks any different than she does today! Even though it’s been over 20 years since her prom, it doesn’t seem like the A-list actress has aged at all. Now, she has her own nontoxic household goods startup, The Honest Company!
