10 Jobs That Singers Say They'd Have, If They Hadn't Become Famous

Quick Links

The most famous singers in the world appear like they were born to be musicians. But some of them have revealed that they would have gone for very different jobs if they hadn't become famous.

Fans view their favorite singers and rappers as naturals. As true as it is, these celebrities were often not sure they would make it big in the music industry. They got degrees in architecture or the English language and had backup jobs planned for themselves.

These are the jobs that some of your favorite singers say they'd have if they hadn't become famous.

Justin Bieber

The Canadian British singer and pop star Justin Bieber is loved for his pop songs. He became famous when he was a teenager and has had a long-lasting career in the music industry.

However, if Bieber had not made it big in the music industry, he would probably have strived towards becoming an astronaut, as indicated in a 2012 interview.

Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift has had a long-lasting career in the music industry, and she is still one of the best music-producing artists. The lengthy career of the singer in itself is proof of her talent.

However, if Taylor had not been famous as a singer, the pop star says she would probably be a designer or, as she had mentioned in past interviews, even a detective.

Britney Spears

Britney Spears has had a lot of ups and downs in her music career. However, she has always emerged stronger and more glorious than before.

It is probably difficult for her fans to imagine her in any other profession, given the amazing talent as a pop star she holds. Britney once expressed the wish of being a history teacher if her career had not taken off.

Zayn Malik

Zayn Malik is a musician who rose to fame very quickly. Some of his notable performances include Dusk Till Dawn, I Don't Wanna Live Forever, and Pillow Talk.

While wondering what Malik would have opted for, he told the V Man mag that he would specialize in English if he did not become successful in the music industry and would probably become an English lecturer after completing university education.

Ed Sheeran

Ed Sheeran is a favorite among the young and the old. He has composed brilliant music, and it is next to impossible to imagine him in any other profession.

Ed Sheeran revealed in a show called 'Today' in 2014 that he would be in a different profession if he had not become famous as a singer and songwriter. He said he would be working in a supermarket because he had not finished his college education.

Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus became a star when she was a child performer. She became famous as Hannah Montana and later dropped one hit album after another.

It pretty much seems that Miley Cyrus was born to be a singer. But she expressed to Daily Record the desire to have a profession in photography. She even considered attending an art school in London to hone this talent.

Harry Styles

Harry Styles is an American singer who became famous as a teenage artist at the age of 16. Styles has received popularity with the release of new music and the outspoken support for the Queer community.

However, Harry was well decided upon what he would have done if the boy band One Direction had not become a successful venture. He would become a psychotherapist.

Joe Jonas

Joe Jonas is one of the famous three members of the pop-rock band called Jonas Brothers. He is a famous American songwriter and singer who recently married the favorite Game of Thrones star, Sofie Turner.

Joe has amazing cooking skills. He plans to take on a job as a restauranteur when he retires from the music industry.

Ice Cube

Ice Cube (O'Shea Jackson) is more than an American rap star. He has found success as an actor and a filmmaker.

Jackson is most recognized for his brilliant rap music content. But the pop star would have taken up something in the field of architecture if he had not become famous as a musician. He already has a degree in architectural drafting, and with some more training, he could very well turn into a professional.

"Weird Al" Yankovic

"Weird Al" Yankovic has carved a unique space for himself in the music industry. He is known for composing and performing critically acclaimed parodies of blockbuster music productions.

Weird Al got himself a college education and a degree in architecture. He aimed to become qualified enough for the job of a cartoonist for Mad Magazine.

These facts might, at first, come as a surprise to the fans of these celebrity musicians. But it only makes them more versatile and epic.
