Kim Kardashian Casts Macaulay Culkin as Santa in Music Video

Kim Kardashian's very strange, very lo-fi take on the slushy Christmas track “Santa Baby” In a new video released late Sunday, December 22, Kardashian dons a blonde wig and surreal holiday “party” crawling across the floor as she sings the aforementioned track (produced by her brother-in-law, Blink-182's Travis Barker), a barely recorded soundtrack.

Yes, Macaulay Culkin, of “Home Alone” fame, appears at the very end of the clip as a dreary peeping Santa Claus to round out the whole thing. [Wearing a blonde wig and her signature SKIMS, Kardashian (of course) crawls across the floor of an old house, the floor covered with various holiday debris, old wrapping paper, fake snow, and tons of food scraps. The clip feels like it was created to provoke a reaction in the audience.

Throughout this scene, billed as a film directed by Nadia Lee Cohen and Charlie Dennis, Kardashian encounters a cast of unique characters in a strangely disturbing atmosphere. Kylie Jenner appears dressed as the Virgin Mary (with a donkey), while others place bets, play Twister, swim in an aquarium, and watch TV. In one scene, an elderly woman literally “trims” the branches on the Christmas tree.

It's a truly bizarre moment that feels more like a publicity stunt than Kardashian's attempt to revive her ill-fated music career.

We'll have to see what Santa Baby thinks about all this and whether it guarantees that her Christmas wish will come true.
