It’s no secret that Kim Kardashian is the ultimate hair chameleon, trying almost every variation of color and cut over the years. While the Skims entrepreneur is best known for her long, layered dark brunette locks, she’s also shown her range with an icy blonde lob with dark roots, Cherry Cola red waves, and silver extensions. And on Sunday, December 22, Kardashian was nearly unrecognizable as she went full Pamela Anderson with a new honey-blonde style.
The reality star was in her musician era as she starred in an unlikely cover of Eartha Kitt’s “Santa Baby.” Produced by her brother-in-law Travis Barker, the surreal video showed Kardashian ditching her dark extensions for a Baywatch-esque messy blonde lob as she moved around a house on her hands and knees. The dramatic hair transformation featured face-framing fringe and a short, shoulder-length chop. Kardashian leaned into her signature glam for the clip, pairing her new look with dark eyebrows, a nude pout, and messy, lived-in eyeshadow.

As the beauty maven crawled around on the floor in the “Santa Baby” remake, she wore a light blue denim shirt that was unbuttoned to show a nude bodysuit underneath. A pair of pepto bismol pink leg warmers and heels finished the Keeping Up with the Kardashian star’s unexpected Christmas appearance.

Kardashian wasn’t the only star power in the video, as she highlighted a surprise cameo at the end of her video when she crept up behind an unsuspecting Santa Claus and put her hand on his leg. The actor, who was dressed in Santa’s quintessential red suit, then turned around, revealing himself to be Home Alone’s Macaulay Culkin.

It’s not the first time that Kardashian has taken beauty cues from Pamela Anderson. The star has been nailing the Baywatch icon’s signature messy updo with face-framing curtain bangs (but in a brunette hue) during her recent appearances, and Kardashian memorably channeled the star by recreating her 1999 VMAs look with platinum blonde hair, a pink fuzzy hat, and a white corset for Kendall Jenner’s Halloween party in 2018.
