Last year, Shawn revealed that he had aspirations of being a therapist, and he considered quitting music for the same. When asked about his alternative plan, he told fellow singer John Mayer on 'How's Life', "I have no idea. For real, I seriously thought about it. I actually took a small therapy course and I was like, âI might just become a therapist in a small town'. It'd be weird at first for everyone, and then eventually they would just get used to it".
Elsewhere in the interview, Shawn, who recently declared he is still figuring out his sexuality and previously romanced Camila Cabello, admitted he is ready to find love. Asked if he's going to date again, he said, "Yes. For sure. I think, yeah. I guess as long as we're living, we are healing".
Besides Shawn Mendes, Green Day is set to headline the musical extravaganza. Lollapalooza's new edition will take place in Mumbai from March 8-9, 2025.
