Megan Thee Stallion's care home plan
Megan Thee Stallion is planning to open an assisted-living facility.
The 'Savage' rapper has been studying for a bachelor's degree in health administration via part-time online classes at Texas Southern University but as she is unsure she can use her qualification - which she hopes to complete next year - while her music career is going from strength to strength, she's got a plan in mind that will also help her classmates gain employment.
She said: "I really wanted to be an administrator over a hospital, but I knew I still wanted to be Megan Thee Stallion. I was like, 'What can I do?'
"I was like, 'You know what, I'm gonna open an assisted-living facility and use the money that I make from rapping to open it. Then I'm gonna let my classmates run it."
Before the coronavirus pandemic called a halt to concerts, Megan did everything she could to fit her studies around her gigs, explaining she was always "either finishing schoolwork on the way to a show, after a show, or getting it done in the morning so I can be a rapper at night."
Although Megan took the course for herself, she also wants to honor her mom Holly Thomas - who died in March 2019 after battling brain cancer - and her late grandmother, who also passed away last year.
Megan - whose father died when she was a teenager - told People magazine: "I want to get my degree because I really want my mom to be proud. She saw me going to school before she passed.
"I want my [grandma] to be proud. She saw me going to school before she passed.
