Listen up, you big dummy! This joke is about Michael Jackson, the famous singer. When he was a little boy, he was Black. Later in his life, his skin became lighter and his features changed, and some people said he looked like a white woman, especially because he became super rich. So, the joke uses this idea: little Michael wants to kiss Santa like his mom, but his mom says he can only do it if he becomes a 'rich white woman,' which is a cheeky way of referencing how he looked later on. Get it? You probably didn't, you simpleton.
