Kim Kardashian evokes Eartha Kitt!
The 44-year-old reality star-turned-tycoon has unveiled a series of surreal visuals to accompany her version of the singer’s 1953 festive classic. “Santa Claus” on Monday, December 23.
Kardashian teamed up with directors Nadia Lee Cohen and Charlie Denis for the project, and produced the song with her brother-in-law Travis Barker.
In the nearly five-minute video, the mother-of-four dons a messy blonde wig as she crawls on her hands and knees through a chaotic party house filled with surreal versions of typical Christmas scenarios — from parties to fights over money to shivering snow around the fire.
“Santa, just put Sable under the tree for me,” Kardashian sings as the donkey stands in the doorway next to business people on the phone.

Kardashian recorded the song during the third season The Kardashians and released it through Barker’s DTA Records and her Kimsaprincess, Inc.
The newly released visuals channel old VHS footage with pixelated clips that randomly skip ahead. The SKIMS founder wears a blue shirt with beige trim, pink leg warmers and heels as she crawls around the house, giving a glimpse of the different ways people might spend the holiday season.
After the camera pans to the sleeping elf, Kardashian squeezes under the plumber’s legs to crawl into a room where the men are playing sports and the women are on the Twister mat in their underwear.

The chaos gradually builds as a man dressed as Jesus dons a crown of thorns as he searches the fridge before a lit-up nativity scene is seen in the background of the strange video, which also shows money being swept around and people who appear to be drunk.
Tinsel and lights are strung on the doors of several rooms while a Christmas tree is being destroyed by a woman cutting its branches.
The video ends with Kardashian looking directly at the camera before revealing that she’s holding it Alone in the house star Macaulay Culkin dressed as Santa Claus. Piano music plays softly and people mutter in the background, which is captured on his camcorder.

Kardashian’s distinctive version “Santa Claus” is available for streaming on Apple Music and Spotify.
It comes just days after she took inspiration from 1990s fashion by choosing a red dress and wavy hair to attend the SKIMS Christmas party in Los Angeles.
Despite breaking her foot, the business mogul embraced the holiday season even decking out her scooter in red and green.
