Anyone who has watched this year’s season of The Bachelor on ABC is surely familiar with the 24-year-old business owner from Miami, Florida, Corinne Olympios. Those of you who are would be happy to hear that Corinne just released, on April 4th, her very own apparel line, which she very aptly named “Team Corn”. You can check it out here:  https://riotsociety.com/collections/teamcornshop

 

The store features tanks, short-sleeve shirts, long-sleeve shirts, and caps that are emblazoned with Corinne’s most iconic catchphrases, from “Platinum Vagine” to “Dude, I Need Sushi” to “I Need a Raquel” (referencing her infamous nanny). She even parodies Kanye West’s “I Feel Like Pablo” design, replacing the words with “I Feel Like Corn”. Not to mention, her store also sells “Make America Corinne Again” shirts and caps. 

 

 

Corinne gained a controversial status as the show’s “villain” after interrupting 4 girl’s dates, being very forward with the bachelor Nick Viall, stripping naked several times, and confronting the other girls for talking about her behind her back. But while her fellow contestants may not have liked her actions, Corinne acquired a significant fan-following due to her carefree approach and hilariously memorable moments. 

 

After getting kicked off the show two episodes before the finale, Corinne took the opportunity to use her sense of humor and popularity to her advantage, calling on her fans to join “Team Corn”. The reference is to a quote of hers during the season, when she said, “I’m a corn husk. You gotta pull all the layers back and in the middle is this luxury, yellow corn with all these pellets of information. And it’s juicy and buttery. You want to get to that corn.”

 

So far, Corinne’s Team Corn line seems to be performing well, with her most recent Instagram post thanking everyone who supported her along the way, and others flocking to Instagram to express their support:

 

Even though Bachelor season 21 is over, it seems that this reality star is here to stay!

As a senior undergraduate, I seek out all opportunities that expand my horizons, with the aim of developing professionally and deepening my vision of how I can positively impact the world around me. While most of my career aims revolve around healthcare and medicine, I enjoy producing content that is informative, engaging, and motivating.  In the past few years, I have immersed myself in the health field through working at a private surgical clinic, refining my skills as a research assistant in both wet-lab and clinical settings, shadowing surgeons in a hospital abroad, serving different communities with health-oriented nonprofits, and currently, exploring the pharmaceutical industry through an internship in clinical operations.  Career goals aside, I place my whole mind and soul in everything that I pursue whether that be interacting with patients in hospice, consistently improving in fitness PR’s, tutoring children in piano, or engaging my creativity through the arts. Given all the individuals that I have yet to learn from and all the opportunities that I have yet to encounter in this journey, I recognize that I have much room and capacity for growth. Her Campus is a platform that challenges me to consistently engage with my community and to simultaneously cultivate self-expression.
