Kim Kardashian surprised fans with her return to the music scene after 13 years, releasing a cover of Eartha Kitt’s holiday classic “Santa Baby” with the help of her brother-in-law, Travis Barker. The song, produced by DTA Records and Columbia Records, is paired with a stylish yet bizarre music video directed by Nadia Lee Cohen and Charlie Denis.
In the video, Kim dons a blonde wig as she crawls through a disheveled house, creating an eerie holiday aesthetic. The video also features a cameo from Macaulay Culkin, who plays a creepy Santa Claus. Fans are now speculating whether this unexpected release signals future musical collaborations between Kim and Travis.

This isn’t the first time Kim has dabbled with singing “Santa Baby.” In Season 3 of The Kardashians, the family recorded a Christmas album in Barker’s studio. Here’s a funny moment from that episode:
While Kim isn’t aiming to become the next Celine Dion, she clearly enjoys experimenting with different roles in the entertainment industry. Plus, it’s no secret that Christmas songs can be a lucrative venture for celebrities, bringing in millions annually. With her take on the holiday classic, Kim might just be tapping into the festive spirit—and some of that holiday cash.
