A Surreal Music Video Raises Eyebrows
On Sunday, Kim Kardashian released her cover of "Santa Baby," produced by her brother-in-law, Travis Barker. The single was accompanied by an unconventional and surreal music video that quickly ignited online debates.
In the video, Kardashian, 44, attends a dark, eccentric house party, wearing a blond bob wig and crawling on all fours in a blue top, beige leggings revealing her underwear, and heels. She moves through bizarre scenes, including a businessman on a phone, a man dressed as Jesus rummaging through a fridge, and even a live donkey. The video ends dramatically as she approaches Santa Claus, running her fingers up his leg. The Santa is revealed to be “Home Alone” star Macaulay Culkin, who stares blankly into the camera before the video abruptly ends.

Directed by Nadia Lee Cohen and Charlie Denis, the music video left viewers divided.
