According to the January 19th issue of People Magazine (with Britney Spears on the cover), Backstreet Boy AJ McLean is the person Nick sought advice from with regards to Paris Hilton. Here’s a snippet from the article: “Is Paris yearning? Paris Hilton, the 22-year-old star of The Simple Life and a famous video with somewhat lower production values, has recently been engaging in some old-fashioned kissing and nuzzling with Backstreet Boy Nick Carter, 23. The two apparently got together after Hilton signaled her interest, prompting Carter to seek the counsel of fellow bandmember A.J. McLean. “‘Paris Hilton keeps calling me,” McLean recalls Carter telling him one night at West Hollywood hotspot Chi. His advice to Carter: “Just have fun and enjoy it.” And so he has, by the looks of it. Will it last? While Carter is very private about his love life, including the music-biz girlfriend he lived with in 2000 but refused to name, Hilton is… less shy. And there’s one other little problem. “Paris will settle down eventually,” says her sister Nicky, 20. “But she just has such a little attention span to concentrate on a relationship.”

The DJ, Spike, replied to her: “We called Howie D. to put the rumors to rest and he confirmed that Nick & Paris have been together for a few weeks. He had a fun time with the topic and busted on Nick quite a bit. He also told us that they are going into the studio [this] month to begin work on the next BSB album. And he had a laugh over Britney Spears saying ‘I guess any publicity is good publicity.’ When we called his cell, he was boarding a plane for Japan, and talked to us so long that he almost missed his flight.

Nick Carter And Paris Hilton Go Shopping
January 4, 2004 - Contributed by elgato: On Friday (January 2) Nick and rumored girlfriend Paris went shopping together. From the pictures, it looks like they were shopping for baby or dog clothes, among other things.
I’m sure it’s just a fling…Nick is far too good for her, and she doesn’t take ANYTHING but her looks and her money seriously! Nick had better be gearing up already for a hard fall. She’s gonna break his heart, and then the Backstreet fans will have to do to Paris what we did to Mandy! Lord, we’ve got some work ahead of us don’t we y’all! I just don’t get this. Nick is so unbelievably private, WHY would he go for someone who isn’t…who uses EVERYTHING that should be private to sell herself. You guys know that SHE is the one who released her infamous video, right? She was on TV promoting it, telling people they should download it, like it was some blockbuster hit. Why would Nick go for someone like that? He’s too nice…. There is so much that doesn’t add up here.
What’s with this over analyzation? A man and a woman going out and having fun together, that’s the scenario. I’m sure Nick knows what he’s doing and I’m happy that he looks happy. Plus, from what I heard, an ex-boyfriend of Paris was the one who released the video so that ain’t her doing.
BadAss4Backstreet would you please grow up. You give BSB fans a bad name. I for one did nothing to Mandy because I have no clue what she did to Nick….I can only speculate…no one but Nick and Mandy know the truth about their relationship so we should keep out of it. It’s Nick’s personal life and that’s how it should stay….PERSONAL!!!!!! As for Paris, how do you know she’ll break his heart? For all you know she could be madly in love with him (unlikely, but it could happen). And to be honest with you, she can only break his heart if he’s in love with her but from the sounds and looks of it, he’s not. He’s just a 23 year old man having a good time with a girl.
