Tyra Banks
Tyra Banks hadn't nailed "smizing" in high school, but she still looked every bit the supermodel in an elegant all-black ensemble.

Jessica Alba
We're sure the fashionista would have a thing or two to say about her prom gown, but at least she was a step ahead with the flower crown trend.

Miley Cyrus
No tongue, twerking or Robin Thicke in sight. Miley Cyrus's prom photo is an ode to simpler times.

Sarah Palin
We wouldn't be able to take our eyes off of Sarah Palin's red dress if wasn't for her (and her date's) winning haircuts.

Elizabeth Banks
Even back when she was a brunette, Elizabeth Banks knew she looked in amazing in blue, one of her signature red carpet colors.

We all know pictures of Kate Hudson with a Jamba Juice and Jessica Alba pushing a Target shopping cart do not, in fact, make celebrities" just like us." Clearly, it's old prom photos showcasing hideous '80s hair, regrettable prom dresses and the effects of puberty that do.

To even the playing field, we dug up a bunch of celebrity prom pictures that transport us back to a magical time when A-listers and red carpet regulars weren't so different from you and me. Here, the #ThrowBackThursdays and #FlashBackFridays celebs hoped you wouldn't see.
