Prom Night. We're sure you remember it was every bit as terrifying as it was exciting, way up there with the stress of any exam you did at school! From finding the perfect outfit to finding the perfect partner, it was half celebration and half popularity contest. Everybody wanted to be King and Queen!
Your favorite celebrities were regular kids once, too, and they went through all the excitement and nerves the same way all of us did. Your prom night photo might still be on the wall at your parents' house. For a lot of celebrities, they're all over the internet. But today we're not talking about them. We're talking about their children.
It's time for the celebrity starlets to dress up in their finest and show the parents how it should be done. Does having a bigger clothes budget and a famous parent make you a master of style, or will they be cringing at the pictures in ten years' time like the rest of us? Let's find out!
Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.
Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.
Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.
Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite?
