This summer, Kim will star in the upcoming 12th season of American Horror Story.
Earlier this month Kim, 42, made the announcement via an Instagram post, sharing a promotional video for the series, along with the caption “👀🩸.”
Co-creator Ryan Murphy and leading star Emma Roberts also took to Instagram to share an eerie promo video for the series’ return.
In the clip, creepy music played as the actors’ names popped up on the screen.
Ryan issued a statement regarding his casting decision, telling The Hollywood Reporter: “Kim is among the biggest and brightest television stars in the world and we are thrilled to welcome her to the AHS family.
“Emma and I are excited about collaborating with this true force in the culture. Halley Feiffer has written a fun, stylish and ultimately terrifying role especially for Kim, and this season is ambitious and unlike anything we have ever done.”
Ryan is said to have been impressed with Kim’s standout performance on SNL, leading to a meeting about creating a unique role for her on AHS.
But for her sake, Kim is hoping the chance to be on the popular show puts to bed some of her less proud acting moments.

FALL OUT BOY

In 2007, the reality star appeared in the music video for the song Thnks fr th Mmrs by Fall Out Boy – and smooched bassist Pete Wentz.

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.

“You’re right, super hot lady who my wife keeps telling me why you’re famous but I keep forgetting,” he answered back.
