Santa Claus, as portrayed in the "Celebrities" sketch, is a fictionalized version of the iconic figure. He's depicted not as the jolly gift-giver, but as a celebrity contestant participating in a humorous game show setting.

This Santa maintains some recognizable characteristics – the red suit, the white beard – but his persona is shifted. He is presented as competitive and self-absorbed, more concerned with winning the game than embodying the spirit of Christmas. He leverages his fame and perceived public goodwill to gain an advantage over other celebrity contestants.

The humor derives from the contrast between the traditional image of Santa Claus and his exaggerated, fame-seeking behavior within the "Celebrities" framework. He's a satire of celebrity culture, using the universally recognized symbol of Santa to highlight the perceived ego and competitiveness of famous individuals.
