#JAB Celeb: Jaden Smith Wears Dress to Take Amandla Stenberg to Prom



If Jaden Smith's not the best prom date ever, then he's definitely one of the most stylish.

A couple of weeks ago, the 16-year-old son of Will and Jada got all decked out in his white Batman suitto escort Mecca Kalani (a.k.a. Crystal Mec) to the year-end dance. He made the prom scene once again on Friday when he took Amandla Stenberg, who played Rue in The Hunger Games, to her high school prom. (This guy gets around, eh?) Of course, Stenberg took to Instagram to share a few shots from her big night. "Here's to highschool," she wrote alongside the above pic of her and her date in their party attire.

While Jaden opted to leave his superhero costume hanging in the closet this time around, he wore an equally unique outfit to prom no. 2. Smith likes to experiment with "girl clothes,"so it wasn't all that surprising that he showed up in a black-and-white dress, skinny black pants, and a black blazer for the occasion. He accessorized with a fingerless white-and-gold glove and pair of sneakers. The only traditional thing about the After Earth star's look was his boutonniere. Amandla simply captioned a shot she posted of Jaden sniffing his white rose, "Gentleman."

Jaden certainly made a fashion statement, but Amandla had the prettier prom dress. The 16-year-old actress looked beautiful in a metallic floor-length halter gown, which she topped off with long silver braids and a gold nose ring
As for the status of Jaden and Amandla's relationship — we're guessing they're just friends — they make a cute couple, NO?

Amandla is more than just a pretty face. Earlier this year, she and a classmate created a short video for a school project that addresses the relevance of black culture and its appropriation by the mass media.
