The stars recall smashing cars, getting dumped and going to clubs on this week’s episode. By Mawuse Ziegbe Stephanie Pratt appears on “When I was 17” Photo: MTV News When Kelly Rowland was 17, she had a lot going for her. As a member of the budding girl group Destiny’s Child, she had a single on the charts and toured the world. She was living the life that few teens get to experience but she did struggle with one thing that many young people can relate to: learning how to drive. “I was a really, really bad driver,” Rowland admitted on the latest episode of “When I Was 17.” “As a matter of fact, I wrecked about three cars before I finally got the whole driving thing down.” Her friend Angie agreed that Rowland was a driving disaster. “Terrible, terrible,” her pal described the Destiny’s Child diva’s sup-par skills. “Did I say terrible? Terrible driver.” Rowland may have been a nightmare on the road but Enrique Iglesias lived through the type of bad dream that would have destroyed many teens: getting dumped before prom. “I had no luck with the ladies,” Iglesias recalled in the episode. “I was going to prom with this girl that I really liked and she said that she had decided that she wasn’t gonna go with me. It was devastating. When you’re in high school and a few weeks before prom the girl you’re going with says no, it’s awful. At the time, my whole world came crumbling down.” Iglesias eventually hit the prom with a bunch of friends and had a blast. Unlike the Latin singer, reality TV starlet Stephanie Pratt never lacked confidence when it came to a major party. The “Hills” ‘s castmember remembered expertly talking her way into nightclubs as a teen. “When I was 17, all of my friends were 21 and going out to clubs on school nights, and I obviously wanted to go with them. So, I’d get to clubs, and I had such a baby face at 17, and [the bouncers would] be like, ‘There’s no way you’re 27,’ ” Pratt said. “I had ‘borrowed’ my mom’s cocktail ring and I used to wear it on my wedding finger and say to the doorman, ‘You are just such an angel, I’m actually married!’ ” Pratt explained. “And they’d be like, ‘Oh, well. In that case, come right in.’ ” “When I Was 17” airs Saturdays at 11 a.m. on MTV.
