Top 100 Pop Culture Trends in December

From Sci-Fi Graphic Novels to Vegan Influencer Cosmetics

— December 11, 2021 — Pop Culture
From sci-fi graphic film novels to vegan influencer cosmetics, the December 2021 pop culture trends underscore how media is shaping the products we consume.

One notable example comes from Warner Bros and Nifty. The pair are joining forces to release Matrix-inspired NFT avatars ahead of the launch of The Matrix Resurrections. The NFTs are priced at $50 each, and they were created using Epic Games' MetaHuman Creator.

Another intriguing example from the December 2021 pop culture trends are the Timbiebs Timbits merchadize. Justin Bieber and Time Hortons patterned to create co-branded merch. The new collection includes a brown beanie, a brown corduroy fanny pack, and a beige tote bag featuring the classic Tim Hortons logo and the new Tim Biebs label. Fans can now purchase the new items at Tim Hortons locations.
