V Factory's Asher Book went to not one, not two, but THREE proms. And he even got asked to senior prom by a senior when he was just a sophomore, winning him the coveted position of "that guy" who got to go to senior prom when all the other underclassmen had to stay home and watch crap on TV.

+ After the jump, find out who Asher Book went to prom(s) with and what he wore (we'll forgive him for not wearing a bow tie), watch V Factory rehearse for a "Love Struck" performance, check out photos from the "Love Struck" video shoot, and get more celebrity prom stories.

All the TV dance rehearsals we've seen feature taskmaster instructors barking orders, flashy jazz hands and making gratuitous smiles. But apparently that's not how it works for V Factory. Not even close. From the looks of V Factory's latest video diary, all these boys do to nail down their dance moves, is hang out in front of a huge mirror, crank up their iTunes and make jokes. Is that how it worked for *NSYNC? Prrrobably not, but they had their fun, too!

Watch V Factory warm up for a performance of Radio Disney-dominator, "Love Struck," by ... well, clowning.

Remember that mysterious Bat Mitzvah we got a whiff of a few weeks back in a V Factory video diary? Well, we've uncovered another piece of the puzzle. After a tour of the incredible lobby of the band's hotel (complete with an active waterfall!) and a stop at the diner for lunch, V Factory bring us along to a ritzy supper club.

Inside, checkered floors and oversized balloons hint at the extravagance of festivities to come. The boys get acclimated to their surroundings, make a few jokes and then... THEN... The video just stops! AHHH! When will the teasing end?!? Is one dance with V Factory too much to ask?!? UGH! Patience, V Freaks, patience.

Other goodeez to look for: a shout-out to Fame 2009, a variety of stylish hats, another van ride, and more smart-ass humor. Did I miss anything? Watch!

Is it redundant to say "hot" when referring to V Factory photos? It is, isn't it? All I know is that I WISH I had a prom to go to so I could take Jared, Asher, Nicky T, Nathaniel and Wesley with me. Is that excessive? Who cares? The fact REMAINS that V Factory is EXCESSIVE HOT. Just LOOK at these brand-new MTV-exclusive photos of the guys, shot by Gregg Delman.

That settles it. I'm taking ALL of V Factory to prom. EVERYONE IN THE LIMO!

How is it possible that none of you demanded to know what was made in a V Factory?!?! It's the most obvious and maybe the most important question in the world today! That major oversight aside, you guys did a great job of coming up with questions for V Factory. And to their credit, even though they're a boy ba-ahem, guy group, they knew all the answers! But that's no surprise, really. These dudes are sharp.

I'm sure you're eager to get to the video, so I'll keep this brief. But before we get to V Factory, I have a little spoiler for you: All of the answers are Justin Timberlake. I'm not April Fool's-ing you!

Get the lowdown on V Factory's tour plans, dream collabos, and favorite pick-up lines when they answer YOUR questions, live from the 17th floor at MTV HQ!

Marti Dodson is the girl-next-door lead singer of moody lovin' Ohio rock group, Saving Jane. She's also a completely obsessed V Factory fan. So obsessed, in fact, that she has... well, you'll see! When the V Factory crew runs into Marti in a hotel lobby, she's so smitten that Asher sings her a bar of "These Are The Days," right on the spot, just to cool her off. Dodson practically passes out. Something tells me you can relate...

So, next time somebody's crying to you about how hard life on the road can be, don't believe the hype. We've got video evidence from V Factory, right here, showing you just how sweet the touring life can be. Take it away, V Factory:

+ Watch V Factory's last video diary entry here!

As you know, Ashley Tisdale is coming in March 23 to answer your questions. But can you count on her to answer all of them completely truthfully? Even the romantic ones? Probably. But just in case, we're also bringing V Factory for a Q&A sesh of their own! Although, something tells me you ladies will be more interested in a different line of questioning...

For one thing, the Disney-loving Bandemonium-alums who are single-handedly updating the term "boy band" to "guy group," are straight out of an Abercrombie catalog. For another, they've got a new(ish) single -- "Love Struck" -- making the rounds on Radio Disney. But most importantly, we've been keeping up with V Factory, clip by clip, in their exclusive Buzzworthy tour diary videos. And while those videos give you a taste of what life on the road is like for V Factory, they also happen so fast that they leave a lot of questions unanswered. Now's your chance to clear the air.

For instance, how did they end up playing a hotel Bat Mitzvah? Was it a "Super Sweet 16" scenario? Was there unspeakable brattiness? And what was going on with the surreal pink lighting?

Also, if Nicky T really did teach himself to dance in college, did he learn in his dorm? Did he get credit for it?

See?!? The questions are endless! So, start asking.

Stop by V Factory's hotel suite for all the naps, shaves, showers and general semi-nude primping that goes into one of their shows. You've seen these boys. The sparkle of their teeth, the glossy perfection of their hair, their awesome abs... Takes a lot of work to look that good! Not to mention all the singing, choreography they have to squeeze in between karate chops to the neck.

From the sound of it, the show they're warming up for tonight is the 13th birthday party Bat Mitzvah (!) of a very lucky girl named Olivia. Not only does her party include a private V Factory performance, but from the looks of it, she's taking over the whole hotel. All of the lightbulbs have been tinted pink! The cake takes up a whole table! Who is this chick?! Olivia Gates? Olivia Obama? We demand more information!!! Enjoy the latest installment of V Factory's video tour diary, right here:

Famous-people life is so glam, right? Straight G5-in', Bentleys, no waiting in line for anything, five-star dinners every night. Right? Please. That's so pre-economic downturn. These days, you gotta hustle.

Check out V Factory's brand-new tour blog for a look at how the boys hustle to make it happen.

And check back next week for a peek inside their hotel room. Also, um, is anyone else SO EFFING EXCITED for Fame!???

+ Plus: Bandemonium video diaries!

Bandemonium is done and gone, but the memories live on. Memories of gettin' goofy on Menudo's tour bus, playing "Mafia" with NLT, and lying with Mark & James.

In their fourth and final (sniff!) Buzzworthy tour diary, the guys man up, Boyz II Men style, and profess their love for Bandemonium in this greatest moments tour diary video.

Watch the video, and share your favorite Bandemonium memory. Plus, find out more about Bandemonium II, and check out our it-ain't-over-til-it's-over video tribute.
