PROM DATE
Hey Advicenators! I'm Katie, I'm 15 years old and I'm having my Junior prom this year. My mom booked an up and coming celebrity to be my date (he's not famous yet). I heard he's good looking and he's about 17 to 19 years old. No one's certain about how old he is. So anyways, we're scheduled to meet sometime this month. Any advice on how I should act or what we should talk about or anything? Please help. I'd appreciate it.

Why in Gods name...
I mean, I went stag to mine and left with someone else's date (they weren't dating, he called her at last minute the day of because HE didn't want to go stag) but going with "an up and coming celebrity"
You're not going to enjoy your prom, and its kinda screwed up that your mother is finding you a date. If you do go through with this, don't let her do it again.
As far as questions, treat him like you'd treat any other person. And I'd arrange to go out to dinner just the two of you before the prom, so you can talk one on one and break the ice before you actually get to prom later that night.
I know alot of people who went with dates, and alot who went with friends or went in a group without a specific "date" that they were assigned to. The common thread there, is "people you actually know".
Ask him about his life. Ask him about how he got into what he's doing, ask him what he likes about it, anything like that. Try to relate stories you have to that, just talk to him like a normal human being. He'll probably appreciate it.
If nothing else, treat this as you're going with a new friend, not a boyfriend or anything. It might help kill any nervousness, you aren't trying to impress him you're just trying to have a fun night with him. Treat it as such, relax, be yourself, and try to enjoy the night.

as for how you would act.. be yourself and just show your true colors.. don't be fake..
as for stuff to talk about.. talk about stuff that interests you. talk about you.. and ask him questions. whether people like to admit it..its easier to talk about themselves.. be creative.

blind dates are never fun. -.-''
talk about your interests for a while. but not just yours, ask about his and what he does and stuff. listen intently. and dont talk to much. that might come off as annoying. ^.^
but like i said, blind dates are a little awkward. even if its a first date with someone from school, its way awkward. i wish you the best of luck. :)
(PS) i know its cliche`, but be yourself. ^.^ again, good luck!
