So I love to sing and I also want to make a lot of money to donate to God and buy and repay my parents back for everything. But in order to make tons of money singing you need to be famous. BUT I DO NOT WANT TO BE FAMOUS! It seems annoying/too attention seeking. So how can I sing and make lots of money without becoming famous?

I am a Christian & I helped numerous talented people do exactly this because I am also interpreted scripture to mean that fame is something to be avoided, (just as Jesus did until it could no longer be avoided), while instead giving to others in secret, per the Lord's commands in Matthew 6.
What I did was start a series of both for-profit and non-profit organizations dedicated to helping these talented people become wealthy without actually being famous. I started small by asking local businesses if they would be interested in showcasing the talent as a way to drum up new business. I was surprised to find them very receptive, especially after asking fellow Christians to spread word of mouth and come out to support the businesses while enjoying the entertainment. After a while, my talented people each had rather large followings who would show up wherever requested. This led to local talent scouts asking to manage them, which we declined each time.
What we ended up with was a new 'social tool' that we could activate whenever we came across a struggling business or just one which we all wanted to support. As business improved for them, the money or resources they gave us improved along with them. I decided to structure this into a non-profit organization so that we could also get support through donations and support other worthy non-profit causes. We ended up meeting celebrities while still not BEING celebrities. This ended up raising lots of money, which eventually enabled us to help our families, support many more good local businesses and non-profit organizations.
From here we had the option to pull actual salaries, hire new people or go in any number of different directions. I decided not to pull a salary, but others branched off to form their own organizations and did. We each did our best to follow Christ's teachings as well as we could and GOD blessed each of our unique approaches to this project. No one involved became famous and we were able to 'give in secret' as the Lord commands us. We found that fewer people got angry or jealous, many more people were willing to join us at various levels of talent, (not just 'super stars'), we branched off easily into teaching music, art and drama, (often for free, especially for the poor), and the overall amount of money was better and went to much better uses, rather than being wasted on silly mansions, Hollywood divorces, $10,0000 purses, jet setting vacations or other nonsense. We made sure our loved ones were secure, had all the basics of life and that no one was left out or stepped on while we did.
Life is full of difficulties, so having this solid foundation has helped each of us to endure those inevitable problems with gratitude towards GOD, with mental peace and with overall joy---rather than sudden chaos, disorder, or any other reason for anyone to feel betrayed or left out.
I think that you are on the right track in how you propose to use your talent. I hope that you will consider doing something similar, (though perhaps unique to your own special approach), because it really is a better way than joining Hollywood and its empty visions, its wastefulness, its recklessness, its vain glory and its pointless pursuit of hollow pleasures.
GOD bless you in your success.

You can be a underground singer but you still won't make as much as a famous singer would. Look at Adele she's a famous singer but still very private
