As a movie reviewer who’s seen his fair share of cinematic oddities and trainwrecks, I can confidently say that Kim Kardashian’s “Santa Baby” music video is a holiday-themed rollercoaster ride through the twisted mind of a mad genius or a desperate cry for attention, depending on your perspective.
This Christmas, we honestly thought we’d witnessed all kinds of surprises. But then, Kim Kardashian dropped a “Santa Baby” music video that felt like an episode straight out of “American Horror Story”. If anyone can top this level of peculiarity, we’d probably attempt to consume an entire Terry’s Chocolate Orange in one go! The cherry on top? Not only was Kardashian involved, but Macaulay Culkin, famously known for his role in “Home Alone”, made a surprise appearance at the end, donning a rather eerie Santa Claus costume.
Today, the video for Kardashian’s version of “Santa Baby” was first released on YouTube. This video depicts the reality TV personality navigating a house filled with creepy Christmas scenes. The footage was captured in a documentary-style manner by Nadia Lee Cohen and Charlie Denis. The visuals are quite bizarre, featuring elves working on plumbing, models playing Twister in their underwear, a figure resembling Jesus peeking into a refrigerator, an old lady trimming an unfinished Christmas tree, and two men touching a furry creature.
In summary, by the end of the video, Kardashian is seen climbing towards Santa Claus while filming with a camcorder, her hand moving up his leg. Santa sets down the camera, and there’s Culkin, grinning manically, to end the music video. This leaves us all puzzled: What on earth did we just witness?
Fans React to Kim Kardashian’s “Santa Baby” Music Video
Back in 1953, Eartha Kitt first sang “Santa Baby”, a timeless Christmas tune that artists have been re-interpreting ever since. In Season 3 of The Kardashians in 2023, we caught a glimpse of a wealthy socialite recording her own rendition of the song, though it’s unclear if this is the one featured in her recent music video. Ultimately, who sings it best isn’t what truly matters, right?
Currently, the video has amassed over 100,000 views, and the comments section on YouTube is brimming with reactions to this peculiar work of art (should you choose to label it as such). One commenter lamented, “I wish I could erase the past 5 minutes from my memory,” while another stated, “This is what I imagine hell would be like.
Other individuals expressed their opinions, stating “This video was shot at a small event” while a genuine fan of Kardashian articulated that despite appreciating her work, they found it deeply unsettling to view. We share this sentiment. Meanwhile, another individual offered a more contemplative perspective on the possible reasons behind Kardashian producing the video:
“I think at this point in Kim’s career, she’s done a million ad campaigns for all her companies… I think this is her expressing herself and doing something different. It’s unsettling, a little weird but also funny and shows some of the weird things we do as a society in the name of ‘Christmas.'”
It’s uncertain if that’s true, but regardless, if Kardashian aimed to generate buzz around herself, then she certainly succeeded because “Santa Baby” is currently trending online. If you’re interested in seeing more of Culkin beyond his Santa Claus role, keep an eye out for him in the upcoming season of Amazon’s popular series, Fallout.
