LONG before Kim Kardashian found global superstardom or her boyfriend Pete Davidson, there was another on-screen Pete in her life.

Kim, 41, starred in the music video "" by the rock band Fall Out Boy in 2007, who was all the rage at the time.
Her appearance came only months before the Keeping Up With The Kardashians Season 1 premiere.
The video depicted Kim as an aspiring actress who headed backstage to lock lips with bassist Pete.
Later on, Kim appeared to leave the bassist for a chimp who was portrayed as the music video's hot-shot director.
The bananas betrayal prompted her scorned love interest to ultimately smash his axe and storm off.
The chorus of the song goes, "Thanks for the memories, even if they weren't so great."
Many Kim fans, however, begged to differ, as they took to the comments to gush over the freaky find from the flip phone era.

'I MUST BE TRIPPING'
The video recently saw a resurgence as Kim's romance with another Pete (Davidson) continued to heat up.
Many Youtube viewers were thrilled that they stumbled across it, while others who returned for a dose of mid-2000s nostalgia finally realized who they were watching.
"Does this girl in video look like Kim Kardashian ... [I] have seen this video countless time[s], I must be tripping" one commented two days ago.
"Kris Jenner really hustled back then," another joked.
"I remember this song originally coming out and I’ve legit watched this particular video hundreds if not thousands of times, and only just reali[z]ed that’s Kim Kardashian," wrote a third this week. "The more you know."
A fourth chimed in, "I will absolutely never get over the fact Kim K is in this."
KIM LOOKS BACK ON HER 'DEBUT'
In 2017, on the 10th anniversary of the video's release, Kim of the video to her Snapchat.
"My debut you guys, ten years later,"; she reminisced as she excitedly filmed herself watching it back.
Kim told in 2007 that she had "so much fun" filming it.
"I’m a fan of Fall Out Boy and I agreed to do it, and it was so much fun working with them," she said.
"I think music videos kind of all show the same thing. They kind of want a hot girl and cool cars. This one was totally different."
That said, Kim had some concerns about the monkeys.
"I remember my first scene, I had to sit there and watch the boys perform and I had all the monkeys sitting next to me," Kim added.
"It was so scary because the trainer was saying, 'Don't call them by their name. Don't look at them in the eye,' basically freaking you out -- like 'Don't move.' Then the director is calling, 'Action!' and wants you to move."
"It was really scary because they're so strong and you don't know what they're gonna do."
PETE WENTZ ALSO HAS FOND 'MMRS'
Band leader Pete also recently reflected on the video and how's aged oddly, yet "Mmr-ably" well.
“I remember we had Kim Kardashian in the video for this song,” he said on his in April.
”It’s just so interesting when you look back on that moment and you’re like, ‘This is the last moment Fall Out Boy interacted in public with Kim Kardashian where we had the same amount of fame as her.’"
He added: "Thanks for the memories, Kim.”
In 2018, Pete told on Kim: “I stay in touch with her a little bit – just emails here and there. I ran into her, and she was probably the nicest person ever."
