Kim Kardashian has released a unique rendition of “Santa Baby” for the holiday season, produced by her brother-in-law Travis Barker and accompanied by a visually striking video directed by Nadia Lee Cohen. The video features Kardashian in a blonde wig, navigating through a series of quirky and surreal scenes within a retro-styled home, dressed in a minimalist Skims ensemble.
Throughout the video, the lo-fi aesthetic is punctuated by digital glitches, giving the impression it was recorded on an old digital camera. The backdrop is an eclectic mix of bizarre vignettes, including brawling men, a woman in a trance-like state decorating a Christmas tree, a group engaged in a game of naked Twister, and a nativity scene complete with Mother Mary and a live donkey.
The climax of the video is marked by a cameo from Macaulay Culkin, whose presence nods to his iconic role in the holiday film “Home Alone.” Nadia Lee Cohen’s distinctive style is evident throughout the video, infusing the work with themes of Americana, contemporary banality, and a sense of eerie nostalgia. Cohen, a frequent collaborator with Kardashian, is known for her work directing Skims campaigns and other celebrity features.
