Remember When These Celebrities Had Cameos in Hit Music Videos?

Jake Gyllenhaal

Vampire Weekend knew how to stack a cast. In the video for their 2010 hit, "Giving Up the Gun," they feature Jake Gyllenhaal, Joe Jonas, Lil Jon, and RZA in a heated tennis match. Above all, Ezra Koenig knows how to have fun.

Milo Ventimiglia

Milo seems to be known for his emotionally-charged roles. First playing bad boy Jess on Gilmore Girls, then Jack on the tear-jerker This Is Us. But before he starred opposite Mandy Moore, he played Fergie's tumultuous love interest in her 2007 video for "Big Girls Don't Cry."
