Kim Kardashian has surprised fans by making her return to music with a holiday twist. Over a decade after releasing her debut single, “Jam (Turn It Up),” Kardashian is back with a fresh rendition of the Christmas classic “Santa Baby.” The track, produced by Travis Barker, dropped today, December 23, along with a lo-fi, visually playful music video.
The video captures Kardashian in a glamorous holiday setting, crawling across the floor as a chaotic Christmas party buzzes around her. True to the festive spirit, the video includes a brief but delightful cameo from Macaulay Culkin, widely regarded as a Christmas icon thanks to his role in the beloved “Home Alone” films.
This marks Kardashian’s first foray into music since her 2011 single. Reflecting on her debut, Kardashian admitted in 2014 that it was a fun experience but expressed some regret about trying her hand at singing. “If there’s one thing in life that I wish I didn’t do… it’s that,” she said, adding, “What gave me the right to think I could be a singer? Like, I don’t have a good voice.” Despite her reservations, her new holiday release suggests she’s open to revisiting music—at least for the festive season.
While music hasn’t been her primary focus in recent years, Kardashian’s Skims shapewear brand has been thriving. The company has enlisted several major stars, including Charli XCX, Sabrina Carpenter, and Lana Del Rey, for its campaigns, cementing its status as a cultural powerhouse.
Whether this holiday single marks the beginning of a renewed interest in music for Kardashian or simply a festive one-off, it’s clear she knows how to keep fans talking.
