Kim Kardashian made headlines with her provocative and eye-catching Christmas-themed posts, particularly during the Skims holiday celebration. Though she embraced the festive spirit, her outfit choice—a fitted, low-cut red vinyl dress—seemed to be an attempt to regain the spotlight amid growing apathy towards her. The dress hugged her figure tightly, and she paired it with a black walking boot due to an injury, arriving on a scooter decorated with tinsel for a fun touch.
She didn’t shy away from showcasing her boot in social media posts on platforms like Instagram and X, posing nonchalantly beside a table with her boot raised high. In another moment, she playfully recreated her iconic “Break The Internet” pose from 2014, this time balancing a cocktail on her rear. Yet, many observers felt this attempt fell flat, as one user remarked, “[T]hat s*** dont hit the same.”
Numerous social media users criticized her need for attention, with comments like “She’s getting more desperate for attention as the years go on,” reflecting a growing sentiment. This frustration extended to her Instagram followers, with one user stating, “Go away, Thanks. – The world.” Kardashian’s revealing dress and antics were soon overshadowed by a more provocative video she shared shortly after.
Fans criticize Kim Kardashian’s attention-seeking video
Continuing her quest for attention, Kim Kardashian launched a music video titled “Santa Baby” on December 23, marking a rather embarrassing point in her career. The quirky nearly five-minute video showcased her crawling in a chaotic holiday scene, featuring an offbeat aesthetic. Directed by Nadia Lee Cohen and Charlie Denis, with music production by her brother-in-law, Travis Barker, the video presented Kardashian in a striking blonde wig and a baby blue sweater, revealing more than intended with low-slung leggings.
The video’s odd vibe intensified towards the end with a cameo from Macaulay Culkin in a Santa suit, adding to the eccentricity of the holiday portrayal.
Kardashian undoubtedly stirred discussions with “Santa Baby,” prompting reactions across social media. Comments ranged from noting her desperate attempts for relevance to critiques on the video’s peculiar content, with users questioning the artistic value and purpose behind it. One commented that this showed Kardashian’s real “talent” as solely being her physical appearance, further emphasizing the backlash against her.
