Kim Kardashian’s ‘unhinged’ Santa Baby music video sparks outrage online

Viewers are shook by Kim Kardashian’s ‘demonic’, Travis Barker-produced music video that even features Macaulay Culkin.

Kim Kardashian’s attempt at a festive music video has backfired spectacularly, with fans branding the project “unhinged,” “scary,” and even “demonic.”

The video, a cover of the Christmas classic “Santa Baby” produced by her brother-in-law Travis Barker, features Kardashian crawling on all fours through a bizarre house party, encountering a donkey, a man dressed as Jesus, and a businessman petting a reindeer mascot, among other oddities.

The video culminates with Kardashian reaching Santa Claus (played by Macaulay Culkin) and seductively stroking his leg, only for Santa to turn the camera around to reveal Culkin’s unsettling smirk.

The video has been met with a barrage of criticism on YouTube, with comments ranging from confusion to outright horror.

“I swear this is the most Kanye thing we’ve seen from her”

“Is this for Halloween? Because this scares me.”

“I wish I could delete the last 5 minutes from my memory.”

“This is how I would expect hell to be.”

“I couldn’t sleep last night after watching this … demonic AF!!!”

Many are comparing the video’s aesthetic and vibe to the work of her ex-husband, Kanye West. Picture: AFP

Some fans even expressed concern for Kardashian’s children.

“I feel sorry for her kids. Here is the real Hollywood, folks!”

“This is so disturbing … It’s obvious that Kim Kardashian has lost it and is into some seriously dark twisted s**t. I feel so sorry for her children.”

While Kardashian may have been aiming for an edgy and unconventional take on the Christmas classic, the video seems to have missed the mark.

Many viewers found it confusing, disturbing, and even offensive.

One commenter wrote, “Kim trying so hard to be edgy, but we all know Kim is not edgy at all. She is very controlled & self-aware. Very marketed.”

Another added, “Guess we’re all supposed to praise how wonderfully creative and out of the box this ‘art’ is. Frankly just kinda dumb imho.”

Kim Kardashian’s “Santa Baby” video has certainly generated a lot of buzz, but perhaps not the kind she was hoping for.

The video’s bizarre imagery and unsettling tone have left many viewers feeling confused, disturbed, and even concerned for Kardashian’s wellbeing.

It seems that this Christmas, Kim K has delivered a lump of coal instead of a festive treat.
