Stars and Planets

Lots of time to think these days, hope its not doing me any harm!
After seeing the article about an asteroid passing the earth recently I started wondering why planets and stars are round but asteroids are all sorts of shapes. Space as far as I understand is a vacuum therefore logically there is little or no resistance exerted on these elements so why are planets round and asteroids not?
Just asking.

  1. Why are haemorrhoids not called asteroids? It would be more appropriate.
