Kim Kardashian has simply been asked ‘why?’ after releasing what fans have dubbed a ‘demonic’ cover of Christmas classic Santa Baby.
The Skims owner, 44, donned a blonde wig and plunging blue shirt for the utterly bizarre video produced by her brother-in-law Travis Barker.
The cover of Eartha Kitt’s festive ditty sees Kim’s character crawling across a floor and encountering a wide array of characters including a choir, Jesus, nuns, and bodybuilders.
Sharing the video to her Instagram page, Kim wrote: ‘Santa baby.
‘Film directed by Nadia Lee Cohen & Charlie Denis. Song produced by Travis Barker.’
The creepy chaos onscreen is being filmed by an unseen person, later revealed to be Santa Claus, portrayed by Home Alone star Macaulay Culkin.
Fans have been horrified by the surreal video, with some going as far as saying the reality TV star has ‘ruined Christmas.’
‘What in the methamphetamine Christmas blasphemy is this,’ Alatheia wrote on Instagram, while Lynzrose2389 said: ‘I think I just watched Kim crawl through a crackhouse.’
Marissasales_ wondered: ‘Am I the only one getting demonic vibes….’
Many pondered if they had accidentally ingested drugs while asking ‘What have I just watched?’
On X, Donairddaddy said she had ‘ruined Christmas’, and Artemxcx joked they would be cutting their ear off, sharing an image of Vincent Van Gogh.
Others praised the unsettling vibes of the video and the creativity that went into it.
Palmerdemolition wrote: ‘Creativity at ????! I love how you consistently challenge the status quo. Keep them talking.’
Ashley_yano said it was ‘dope on all levels’, and other users simply said they were ‘obsessed’ with the cover.
Kim’s sister Khloe Kardashian echoed the praise, writing: ‘Come on Santa!!’
‘I love this the nostalgia mixed with like the f****d up realities of life plus the head nods to unlimited horror films pure genius and she sounds great,’ Missjudijai gushed.
Santa Baby is now available to stream after being released through Travis’ record label, DTA Records, and Kim’s company Kimsaprincess Inc.
It comes 13 years after Kim’s debut in the world of music after she released Jam (Turn It Up) with Grammy Award-winning producer The Dream.
