Backstreet Boys’ Nick Carter’ singer brother, passes away
Aaron Carter, a rapper and singer, passed away at the age of 34. He was Nick Carter’s younger brother from the Backstreet Boys.
According to the a website, Carter was discovered dead in his bath at his Lancaster, California, home on Saturday. His death was confirmed by his squad, according to PA.
“Right now it’s a really bad time, we’re trying to figure out what happened and what the cause of it was,” they said.
“We’re just as upset as everyone and hope that fans can give thoughts and prayers to his family.”
According to a website, Los Angeles County police responded to a drowning incident and arrived on the site at around 11:00 local time (18:00 GMT).
Carter began his career as the boy band Backstreet Boys’ tour and concert opener. He has enjoyed success as a solo artist.
Millions of copies of his four albums, the first of which was released when he was just nine years old, were sold during the late 1990s and early 2000s.
In 2000, Aaron’s Party (Come Get It), his second album, was released and quickly achieved triple platinum status.
I Want Candy, Aaron’s Party (Come Get It), and That’s How I Beat Shaq were among the singles on it. He once again supported the Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears on their Oops!… I Did It Again tour after the release of the album.
Carter began rapping when he got older and has made appearances in Broadway shows and on the US television programme Dancing With The Stars.
He struggled with many things, visiting rehab multiple times, and declaring bankruptcy in 2013 due to massive debt, a large portion of which was tax-related.
Additionally, he had numerous encounters with law enforcement for drug possession and dangerous driving.
He previously stated to the Daily Mail that he did not want to be perceived as a “train disaster” any longer.
“I am not how some people try to paint me,” he told the outlet. “If somebody wants to call me a train wreck, well I’ve been a train that’s been wrecked multiple times and derailed by many different things.”
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Carter entered rehab early this year in an effort to win custody of his son Prince, who was born in 2021.
Following the announcement of Carter’s death, Prince’s mother Melanie Martin issued a statement saying she was “still in the process of accepting this unfortunate reality”.
“Your thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated,” she added.
Fellow ’90s popstars New Kids on the Block paid tribute to Carter, saying they were “shocked and saddened” by his death.
