Kim Kardashian has once again proven that she’s more than just a media personality—she’s a true cultural phenomenon. This time, she’s taken the Christmas classic "Santa Baby" and transformed it into a unique video performance blending retro nostalgia with bold provocation.

The soundtrack was created with the involvement of Travis Barker, while the visual aspect is the work of her frequent creative partner Nadia Lee Cohen. If you think you know what to expect from Kim, prepare to be surprised.

In the video, Kim appears as a blonde in a minimalist Skims set, moving through a retro-styled home that feels more like a surreal film set. The aesthetics are deliberately "lo-fi," giving the impression that the video was shot on an old digital camera. But that’s just one layer of the atmosphere.

The climax of the video is an unexpected appearance by Macaulay Culkin, the iconic star of the Christmas classic "Home Alone". His presence serves as both a nostalgic nod to childhood and a subtle ironic touch tying the project to the traditional image of Christmas.

The video’s aesthetics bear the unmistakable signature of Nadia Lee Cohen, known for her unique style combining contemporary surrealism, Americana aesthetics, and a touch of unease. Cohen has collaborated with Kim on Skims campaigns and magazine photo shoots before, but this time their work has reached a new level.
