Kim Kardashian dressed as Princess Leia and Kanye West as Stormtrooper in 2008 failed sketch

Kim Kardashian uploaded a throwback picture of herself and Kanye West to her Twitter page on Thursday.

In the snap which was taken in 2008, Kim Kardashian is dressed as Princess Leia while Kanye West is in Stormtrooper gear.

Stood in the iconic gold bikini and swirled braids, Kim Kardashian, 32, is captured gazing at her now beau as he smiles while focusing his attention elsewhere.

Posted to the micro-blogging site via her Instagram account, the description on the image read: “Throwback Thursday me & Yeezy 2008.”

The shot was taken when Kim Kardashian filmed a musical skit for Comedy Central with the Watch The Throne performer.

The ten minute clip was set to be part of a pilot for Kanye West’s puppet comedy show, Alligator Boots, which he made in collaboration with hip hop star Rhymefest.

In Kim Kardashian’s brief appearance, she was serenaded by a very crude talking doll while Kanye West watched on in awe.

Unfortunately the show never went past the pilot stage and was never be aired on television.
