Bhad Bhabie has revealed she is training for a surprising new career after opening up about her cancer diagnosis.
The rapper and OnlyFans star, 23, whose real name is Danielle Bregoli, found fame at the age of 13 after an appearance on Dr. Phil with her mother.
In the segment, titled I Want to Give Up My Car-Stealing, Knife-Wielding, Twerking 13-Year-Old Daughter Who Tried to Frame Me for a Crime, Bhabie went viral after offering to fight the audience when they laughed at her, coining the phrase "Catch me outside, how 'bout that?"
She capitalized on the notoriety it brought to launch a music career for herself, later going on to start an OnlyFans account when she turned 18 years old, quickly becoming one of the platform's highest-earning stars.
She is also mother to a daughter, born in March 2024 during her relationship with her ex, rapper Le Vaughn, and opened up about her diagnosis with blood cancer in November 2024 after fans noticed she had lost a significant amount of weight.
Now, Bhabie has revealed that she was inspired to follow a career in medicine and is training as a nurse.
She took to X (formerly Twitter) to share two photos of her in scrubs, telling her followers: "They said I’m rich and bored. I been working on getting my nursing license. I love the med field."
Her update comes months after she revealed that she was still dealing with the ups and downs of her cancer diagnosis.
She wrote on X in February: "Bad news from my doctor yesterday. God has the last say so not my cancer."
Bhabie added in a later post: "I’m not suppose to feel pretty because of my cancer ? Ok smh."
She had first opened up about her diagnosis in 2024, as she addressed the speculation around her weight loss.
The 'Gucci Flip Flops' star wrote at the time: "I'm sorry my cancer medicine made me loose [sic] weight. I’m slowly gaining it back. So stop running with the worst narratives.”
Her mother, Barbara Bregoli, also shared posts of her own slamming trolls that claimed the diagnosis was "karma" for the young star.
She said at the time: "Let me say this, social media has become an app where people think they can come on here and say the most vile things and think it’s funny because they’re hiding behind a screen.
"That’s the lowest form of anything. Babies don’t ask to get cancer, little children don’t ask to get cancer, the elderly don’t ask to get - nobody asks to get cancer."
She added: "Don’t come on here with your balls so mighty saying, ‘Oh, yeah that’s your karma,’ because it just might be yours.
"Don’t ever say something about someone unless you’ve experienced it. Let me tell you something, play with me every day. Don’t come after my kid. Don’t come after my family."
