Kim Kardashian released a cover of “Santa Baby” late Sunday night that was accompanied by a bizarre music video.
The video finds Kardashian crawling through a house during what appears to be a Christmas party of some sort. Kardashian is wearing a blonde wig, a blue cardigan, pink leg warmers, high heels and beige shapewear (we’re guessing that’s her Skims brand).

Among the many scenes featured include a woman dressed as Mary standing beside a donkey, a man dressed as an elf sitting on a kitchen counter eating out of a bowl, scantily clad women playing Twister, a person trimming a tree nearly bald, a woman swimming in a giant water tank and a man getting a haircut. There is also cash, lots and lots of cash (a man is seen counting money, another scene shows a person vacuuming up money off the floor, yet another shows two people physically fighting as money is thrown about nearby).
It ends with a shot of someone dressed as Santa Claus holding a videocamera in front of his face. The costumed Kris Kringle then pulls the video camera away to reveal that it’s actually Home Alone star Macaulay Culkin.
Many people commented on the bizarre nature of the video on Kardashian’s Instagram post.
“What in the methamphetamine Christmas blasphemy is this,” wrote one follower. Commented another: “Am I the only one getting demonic vibes….” Add another: “I think I just watched Kim crawl through a crackhouse.” “Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should…,” another commenter posted.
Kardashian’s cover of the classic Eartha Kitt tune was produced by Travis Barker, her brother-in-law (he’s married to Kardashian’s sister Kourtney). She posted that the video was directed by Nadia Lee Cohen and Charlie Denis.
Watch the video below.
This isn’t Kardashian’s first foray into music. She previously released a music video in 2010 for a song titled “Jam (Turn It Up).” She said she was giving half of the proceeds to charity and did not release an album.
