Jessie Paege Joins Hot Topic Creator Program, Releases Second Line Of Internet-Inspired Shirts

Hot Topic just got even more Jessie Paege.

The 20-year-old lifestyle creator has released her second collection of online-exclusive T-shirts in collaboration with the pop culture clothing shop.

Like her first collection, this lineup features items with slogans drawn straight from the well of internet culture. Fans can now grab shirts in various colors emblazoned with things like “[screams in gay],” “YOU MATTER,” “*cries in princess*,” and the more serious, anti-assault line, “The way we dress doesn’t mean yes.” They’re each priced between $25 and $29.

There is one thing different from her last collection: This time, all Paege’s items can be bought through her new, personalized section of Hot Topic’s website. The dedicated section is thanks to her recently-earned status as one of the first 10 people to be part of the Hot Topic Creator program. All creators who are part of the program have their items featured in the ‘Creators’ section of Hot Topic’s online store, and have personal storefronts that show their photo and a brief bio at the top.

“I am beyond excited to be teaming up with my favorite store again,” Paege told Just Jared. “Hot Topic helped me find my identity in high school, so to be working with them again, and this time to be one of the first 10 creators to have a personalized store on the Hot Topic website with my own online exclusive shirts, is another dream come true.”

“We are excited to expand our creative partnership with Jessie Paege, whose new merch collection is an integral part of our HT Creators program,” Andrea Lewis, Hot Topic’s VP of marketing, added. She noted that the creator program is “Hot Topic’s first foray into nurturing creatives of all types — from social media influencers to visual artists, photographers, musicians, and beyond.”
