Former American child star Aaron Carter is dead

American singer Aaron Carter has died, his agent Roger Paul reported at the request of the German news agency, citing Carter’s mother. “She called me and said her son was dead,” Paul said in a phone call. The former child star was 34 years old. All other details and circumstances would be clarified and then communicated, it said. When asked, the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed an operation in Lancaster, California, but did not provide details.

Reports that Carter was found in a bathtub were initially unconfirmed. A written statement from management said: “We are extremely saddened and shocked to confirm Aaron Carter’s death today. His cause of death is currently under investigation.” Please consider the family. Carter recently struggled with mental health issues and drug and drug addiction. “Backstreet Boy” younger brother Nick Carter celebrated huge success in the late 90s with hits like “Crush On You” and “Aaron’s Party” – he was still a kid. Since then, he has repeatedly tried to make a comeback without success. As part of a world tour, he also made a stop in Germany in 2015.

Recently, however, the world-famous teenage star has been talking about some bad news. The two brothers Nick and Aaron argued in public – and made bad accusations. In 2019, Nick claimed that his younger brother had made threats against the family. Aaron was also at odds with his twin sister Angel – eventually Nick and Angel filed for a restraining order.

Aaron Carter has recently spoken publicly about his drug history. About three years ago, he said he was taking several medications to help manage his mental health problems. Carter also positioned himself politically, stating in 2016 that he wanted to vote for Donald Trump in the US presidential election.

Almost a year ago, the singer’s first child was born. “Prince is precious, I love you, son,” he wrote on Instagram at the birth in November 2021. A week later, he divorced his mother, his fiancée Melanie Martin. For “personal reasons” to go their separate ways, he wrote on Twitter. In several posts, the younger brother of Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter complained about alleged lies and interference from his family. At the time, he accused his ex-fiancée of secretly keeping in touch with his twin sister.

Carter wrote at the time that he had been betrayed and betrayed by his family. She tried to put him under guardianship. Now his main job as a single father is to take care of his son Prince. In recent years, Carter had repeatedly argued publicly on the Internet with strangers who provoked him or joked about his facial tattoo. Carter’s troubles were seen by many as a result of his early fame. Experts continue to point to the high pressures children and young people are exposed to, especially in the US entertainment industry.

In addition to the cameras and microphones constantly aimed at young celebrities, social media and the Internet have also increased over the past decade. The childhood idols need only search for their names to delve into the aggressively boiling rumor mill surrounding their personal lives. (dpa) (aargauerzeitung.ch)
