Bhad Bhabie, whose real name is Danielle Bregoli, has revealed an unexpected career plan while continuing to face challenges following her cancer diagnosis. The 23-year-old rapper first became famous in 2016 at age 13 after appearing on Dr. Phil, where her now-famous “Catch me outside, how ’bout that?” remark turned her into an internet sensation. She later built a music career and became one of OnlyFans’ best-known earners. Now, Danielle says she has been working toward a nursing license, sharing two photos of herself wearing medical scrubs on X. “They said I’m rich and bored. I been working on getting my nursing license. I love the med field,” she wrote. Her announcement comes after she revealed in November 2024 that she had cancer, following public speculation about her significant weight loss. At the time, she explained that her medication had caused the change and asked people to stop making assumptions about her health.
Danielle has continued sharing updates with fans, including a troubling message in February 2026 in which she said she had received “bad news” from her doctor, while expressing faith that cancer would not have the final say. She has not publicly disclosed the specific type of cancer or provided detailed information about her treatment. Her mother, Barbara Bregoli, has also defended her against cruel online comments, reminding people that nobody chooses to face cancer and that such struggles should never be treated as punishment. Away from the headlines, Danielle is also a mother to her daughter, Kali Love, born in March 2024. Her interest in nursing marks a surprising possible direction beyond music and social media, although she has not announced when she expects to qualify. For now, her plans have drawn attention from followers as she navigates personal challenges and explores a new professional path.
