Before the naked magazine covers, songs about dead petz and NSFW instas, Miley Cyrus was America's sweetheart. (A lot can change in three years, amirite?)

Back in 2012, she was most known for being Disney Channel phenomenon, Hannah Montana, and starring alongside her IRL boyfriend Liam Hemsworth in Nicholas Sparks' "The Last Song." At the time, Miley and Liam were the "It" Hollywood couple. Those were the halcyon days.

In March 2012, a pre-pixie cut Miley supported her man at the premiere of his new movie "The Hunger Games." The happy couple were all smiles on the red carpet, posing for photos with fans and looking like they were genuinely having a blast at the star-studded premiere. He seriously looked at her like she was the only girl on fire in his eyes. Their red carpet debut was adorable.

Miley wore a gorgeous, beaded two-piece Pucci ensemble that featured a belly-baring bustier top paired with a full, flowing gypsy skirt. She was just being Miley.

She couldn't wait to sign autographs for her fans.

And her big sister Brandi and mama Tish were both there to support her Aussie boo.

Her signature tongue even made an appearance! Some things never change, TBH.

Miley and Liam's romance may be long dead now -- although, they're still pretty close -- but at least we'll always have that first "Hunger Games" premiere.
