Kim Kardashian continues to capitalize on her bizarre music video for her Santa Baby cover.
On Tuesday, the 44-year-old reality icon shared behind-the-scenes photos from the video shoot on her Instagram account that featured some of her most striking images to date.
One particularly controversial photo showed Kim sitting on a minimalist nativity scene while wearing a low-cut beige bralette that left her cleavage on display.
In other photos, he crawled on the floor of a dirty house that some viewers compared to a “crack house.”
Macaulay Culkin, who had a surprise cameo in the video at the end, was also seen hanging out with Kim on set.
In her photos, the famous brunette swapped her raven locks for a shoulder-length platinum blonde hairstyle.
She added some color to her skimpy ensemble with a cropped light blue cardigan that she let slip below her shoulders.
She kept her sweater unbuttoned to show off her striking toned tummy.
Kim accessorized her bralette with a set of beige leggings that emphasized her curvy figure, and she channeled the 1980s with a pair of pale pink leg warmers.
She completed her music video costume with a pair of open-toe white heels.
‘BTS, you disgusting animals!’ Kim captioned her post, referencing a line from Macaualy’s 1990 Christmas classic, Home Alone.
Several of the photos she shared on the Instagram app showed her simply posing against a wooden door and alternating between serious faces and ear-to-ear smiles.
The disturbing music video, which appeared to be inspired by David Lynch films and low-budget horror films, was directed by Nadia Lee Cohen and Charlie Denis, who were photographed chatting with Kim while appearing to look at some footage in the home’s kitchen. .
The two were photographed sitting on the dirty carpet near a small Christmas tree and presents while fascinated by their phones.

A sultry photo Kim saved for her Instagram Stories showed only her pert derriere as she crawled across the ground, which was filled with hay, likely from a donkey featured in the video with actors appearing to play Joseph and the Virgin Mary.
Kim put the spotlight on her butt in several photos that show her sitting on her legs or crawling on all fours, as she did for much of the unusual music video.
He crawled through a stack of $100 bills, which may have prompted complaints from fans that the set looked like a drug den.
In the former kitchen, Kim posed against a door next to male actors apparently dressed as businessmen talking on landline phones with the cords wrapped around their bodies.
The video was filtered through decaying video effects, as if it had been discovered on a VHS tape that had been stored away for decades, so it was fitting that Santa (Culkin) was revealed at the end while filming the action on a camcorder. Old Sony. .
Although the former child star was dressed in a red and white Santa suit, he didn’t bother with the hat or beard and instead showed off his slicked-back blonde hair and a close-cropped beard.
Macaulay was photographed looking through his viewfinder as Kim sat at his feet near the Christmas tree during some downtime between takes.
Kim originally recorded the audio-only version of her Christmas cover with her brother-in-law Travis Barker as producer, although it is unclear if he was also involved in the making of the music video.

Although Macaulay Culkin was wearing a red and white Santa suit, he didn’t bother wearing a hat or a beard and instead showed off his slicked-back blonde hair and a very short beard.
Several fans were offended by the images in Kim’s video, which they called “demonic” and “disturbing.”
One particularly sensitive user wrote: ‘This is disturbing. And she claims to be a Christian. This is absurd.”
Others called the video a “nightmare” and one person even complained that the money spent making it could have been better spent.
“What a complete waste of time and money,” they fumed. ‘You could have fed some homeless people or given them shelter. More money than brains.
However, some fans thought the images that some derided as blasphemous could be an attempt to criticize the commercialization of Christmas by Kim, who has been open about her Christian faith in the past.
“I had to watch it twice to understand it all,” wrote X user Ashton Paris, who claimed the music video was meant to show the true meaning of Christmas.
“Basically, Santa is Satan and he managed to distract the world from Jesus’ birthday,” he explained.
“It all comes together in the final shot, where the nun says, ‘He’s not a man of God,’ and they’re keeping all the money.”
“And then Santa with the camera (he sees you when you sleep, he knows when you’re awake),” he concluded, as other commenters echoed similar sentiments.
