After severing his management contract with her, his mother continuously attempts to use the media to damage his career and further her own.”

Clearing Nick Carter’s Name In Abuse Acusations
Contributed Anonymously:
Does anyone know what caused Aaron Carter’s recent controversial comments about his brother in the interview after the Grammys? I thought the brothers were close and got along. I saw many pictures of them together days leading up to the Grammys and all looked well. I think its interesting Aaron would mention the “abuse” 7 months after it happened. Whether or not it happened, wrong or right, it is done and is now over. I think Aaron Carter was entirely out of line to mention such personal things in an interview with a man he didn’t even know. Aaron is known for talking about highly personal family issues that shouldn’t be discussed (His parents divorce, their arrests, etc). I don’t know if the brothers were in a fight and Aaron used the media as revenge but no matter what I think he was out of line. I hope that the boys fix whatever beef they have because their family is already in ruins. If the boys sever ties with each other they won’t have anybody. This is a PERFECT example of money, fame and fortune ruining a family.
