Aaron Carter opened up about his struggles with celebrity to ET in 2017. More from Entertainment Tonight: / @entertainmenttonight Exclusives from #EntertainmentTonight : • NEW From Entertainment...
@@blessingsmindedinckeep going! You are stronger than some crappy drug that lies to you and gives you false feelings of good, just like any fake friend, or all the fake fans of this poor Aaaron, who had so much to handle most won’t ever know, or can’t imagine what he went through. They only see the cars, and the money, and the bling. They don’t want to see past the fake glamour to dirty underbelly. And it’s only getting worse.
Aaron didn’t deserve the hate, the harassment, and disrespect that received from people. He was really suffering inside, and needed love and support. ❤❤❤❤❤❤love you, Aaron
no shot i dont agree, he was really not a good person as awful as it is to say about someone who has passed. Compulsive liar, drug addict, and abusive towards his girl and his animals. I am a recovering drug addict btw and know that life very well. I can comment on it from personal experience - it's no excuse for bad behavior
Most people are assholes and this is why you need to teach your kids not to base their self-worth on their opinions. Many people are horrible and they should just simply be ignored.
@@sylviaking8866absolutely Sylvia don't give your power away to anyone. It does make me sad to see that Aaron was suffering so much when he was alive. I hope he has found peace wherever his spirit lies now.
I hope he is finally at peace! He looks terrible in this video! My brother was an addict and an alcoholic and he passed at age 46 on Easter Sunday! A police officer informed my mother! Years of rehabs lies drunken phone calls and visits destroying property. We went through it all but we couldn't save him and I always wonder should I have tried something else? What? This kid looks so sad my heart breaks for his life that he never really had.God Bless him and all like him. My mom used to say she didn't know what she did wrong? She worried he would die and I always knew it wasn't if but when.😔
We need to wake up and see the hurt that a lot of these child stars (musicians) are going through and have gone through!! This young man broke my heart. As a mother I wanted to just hug him and tell him everything’s gonna be alright. I’m so sorry Aaron I’m so truly sorry. You begged for help, you felt so alone, and all they did was put you on display!! Rest in peace sweetheart I am so sorry that the end to your story was your passing. I’m praying that other young people will find help because of your struggles and how things ended up for you. I pray you are in no more pain. 🩵🙏🏽🩵
@@buckfuddy5561 Same. That's why I'm like wth is everyone so nice now, I remember they were so mean to him...like most of the people 🥹 properly taking the pi**
@@Mara.La888 I think we forget sometimes that we are all human.. with feelings.. Sure there’s crappy ppl out there that should be called out, but I think a lot of the times, most folks just want to be understood and need some compassion
I miss this man. When i met him{backstage at a festival, not there for him but wish i was} he was so kind and genuine. So many struggling people in the public eye and they yall are shocked when they have these difficult lives. Money does not solve all problems.
This is one of the biggest narcissist who ever lived on the planet. He wanted everyone to feel sorry for him, constantly. He never grew up, nor did he ever mature. I do feel sorry for him because he was famous at such a young age and that can destroy you if you don't have the right people around you. Everybody in the Carter family was a wacko. What he needed was Jesus. A human being without the Lord is left to their own devices and they destroy themselves. The devil makes this stuff look really good and unfortunately this kid experienced everything at a very young age so there was nothing left that the devil had to offer him. He had already tried everything that the devil gives. Unfortunately, the only thing left is death unless you start seeking the good Lord and turn to him. He will give you a brand new life and all the old things will disappear. What happens is that you get a brand new father! Father God! Everybody has a father and if God is not your father, then Satan is. He will do everything he can to destroy your life. The Bible says "my people die for the lack of knowledge". People who don't seek out wisdom from above end up destroying their lives by the things they do. Their daddy the devil sits back and laughs as he watches them go through turmoil. All the wild Jesus is there knocking on the door, saying I am right here. Come to me. I will give you brand new life and turn you completely around. He's constantly reaching out his hand to people. He will do everything he can to get someone's attention before it's too late. The most unfortunate thing is that most people just won't listen to him. Even when they know what they are doing is going to kill them, they are so trapped that turning around just doesn't sound possible to them. This kid was a mess and there is no way anyone on this Earth could have helped him. But, I know someone who could have and would have. He is constantly knocking at the door of our heart and the smartest thing anyone could ever do is respond.
Sometimes depression can be in everyones face of someone suffering and yet everyone turns a blind eye. I hope he can rest easy now. The pain in his eyes.
@@thepowerofmyth everything else aside, growing up as a child star people approached him to exploit him. As a person grow up he needs an elder's guidence. he probably didnt have one. you have to have a personality thats easy to be manipulated to get hurt. (he was a easy target as a kid, the parents who were supposed to shield him werent doing their fukin job. they were the center of all the problems) an individual that gets hurt is almost always someone who is sensitive and nice to others. if we are talking about a sociopath that didnt care about a thing others say to him he would have been bulletproof. he cared about fan comments thats never good for someone sensitive. he cared too much about family/blood but he didnt realize toxic tumors need to be cut off. only love and care for those who are worth the time and effort.
@@flormariarennerstam4886 a person doesnt need to be a saint to care about others. deep down he is a softy, i mean it in a good caring way. too many people used him to their advantage. no one taught him that he needed to think about himself before everyone else. being selfish makes one bulletproof, being sensitive emotional will only hurt himself. people approch him acting like they care but not really. normally when this happens the person should move on. the problem is that most ppls parents have their back as the last resort. his parents exploited him.
@@flormariarennerstam4886 his hairstylist / the only friend that arrived at the scene on sat said he loved his kid and had a lot planned with life. this is what happens when a person is messed up/damaged from childhood. he tries to do something but doesnt know how to do it. no one was there to guide him. theres a saying : happy childhood will heal you for life, unhappy childhood will use up your whole life to heal
His death is one of the celebrity deaths I felt the most. I was never that big of a fan, even as a kid. But the obvious amount of pain and trauma he went through is so heartbreaking, and you can feel it and his cries for help through the screen.
Yes same….i can’t even listen to the Backstreet Boys anymore without getting sad, or even listen to Aaron Carter music it’s so sad Everytime I do I’m sad
He was a compulsive liar and a narcissist. Sad that he couldn't turn his life around but I'm not gonna lie and say he was a good person and I'm sad he's gone.
Oh honey, I am so sorry! Asking God to soothe your pain. I hope and pray that your sister's passing was not in vain, but continues to serve as a game-changer for every heart who knew her to become a little kinder, a little softer, a little more understanding of the struggles of others, and a little more grateful for this life we are gifted with. Let her passing be a selfless blessing.
"How did I dedicate 22 years of my life to my fans and now they turn on me.." ABSOLUTELY CRUSHED ME!!! He was hurting SO bad and wanting help for so long. 🥺😭💔💔 Rest Easy Aaron 💙😢🕊
When I was 11 & my grandpa was dying in the hospital, I distinctively remember being in the waiting room alone, getting to put on MuchMusic, & there was an Aaron Carter special. This man gave so many of us joy. I hope he finally has some for. Of peace.
😂😂 he was the farthest thing from a real man. He was always playing the little victim card. He lied nonstop. Took no accountability for his own actions. Crying around about it publicly is not how a man acts
After losing my son to an overdose last September and watching many NDEs on RU-vid..having an open mind to the unexplainable..when we die all the pain and suffering ends and we are in complete and utter peace
Dude was super sincere, and trolls bullied and pushed him closer to the edge. The sad thing is that type of person will still laugh even when the person’s gone. Rip bro
My heart breaks for the emotional pain he endured. No one should be told that they look like they have aids and should just die. There just aren’t words that I can think of to appropriately to describe how heartless that is.
So many say the same about and even worst directly to Bieber bless his heart 😢 He still alive thank gawd , but people are not helping , protecting , or listening to his cry’s over what the industry and anti fans are doing to him it’s heartbreaking and I fear everyday he will pass away way to young .
We hope. Many individuals you see that appear to be human are not. And have no soul to burden. Facts. Mankind has been infiltrated by humans. Just Google the words. Mankind vs Human. 🤯 @@morgainlove
This is so heartbreaking to watch He was absolutely broken Crying out for help that never came Fly high with the Angels Aaron Love and Peace be with you ❤❤
This is why I hate people… they are so cruel and mean for no reason. If you have nothing nice to say don’t bother saying anything at all. Words impact others and have an effect on them especially if their world is heavy at the moment. May he Rest In Peace. 🕊
Yeah, I agree. I've had this stalker ex of mine running some smear campaign against me at work. Criminally, they access this phone - which isn't my issue it's theirs. But what I find hilarious, is that with me being a f****t there are only a very few I think are really attractive looking. For the most part they seemed to give me the least amount of issues. I took it either as, they already knew how cool they were so didn't need some ego pick me up or were too busy getting laid by lots of chicks. I'm perfectly OK with either of those. The world is in such dark times and so many just want to focus on hurting people for such petty issues.

When you were a little kid, I always keep waiting for you to come out on MTV because I love your music videos along with the boybands esp. The Backstreet Boys. So many years gone by, I could no longer keep up with the updates I never saw you anymore, you know life became so busy and then I only heard that you are gone. I felt sorry about you. RIP Aaron. I hope you are happy with your sister in Heaven. ❤❤❤
People who say stuff like that are broken people they're horrible people and they're broken and the devil speak into their mouth and they are just they're an even more pain than he is in and that's just a shame and you are so right and God bless you that you're a good person and you know the difference I would just be if I talk like that and said that to somebody I would run in front of a train nobody deserves to talk to like that nobody deserves to be treated like that God bless him and I hope God's wrapping his loving arms around him now and heaven and he'd never has to hurt ever again God bless his soul and God bless you for being nice this is Lisa sharing life stories with you
Makes me sick that when he’s alive noone was there and most people hateful. Now he’s dead it’s all nice and wishing him the best. We need to respect and support when people are alive and need it. 😢
It's just plain flat out tragic and awful the ish he went thru with his folks, fans, and who knows what else?? With all that nonsense weighing him down, it's no wonder why he went to an early grave. I wonder if anyone reached out to help him, including his older brother, Nick?? That's mad foul😟 R.I.P. Aaron Carter😇 God bless your soul
I barely know much about Aaron but I wish I could’ve been there for him 😪😭😫❤️. Beautiful soul so undeserving of the pain life brought him. Fly in Peace Darling Heart ❤️
um actually committed suicide….The pain in that young man’s face is obvious. Anybody should seen this coming but no they turned their back on him. God got him now bless his him.
His parents stole his childhood, his innocence & all of his money that he made as a kid. Both his father (deceased) & mother were/are disgusting human beings who took complete control & advantage of him 😢 RIP Aaron Carter, mad props to ur talent, ur honesty & ur legacy ~ Prince 👶🏼❤💫🌹🙏 U are so loved!! ❤💯
That's so sad. I never followed Aaron, or his life, so did not know. But did Nick get spared from this greed then? Was it only Aaron that for taken advantage of?
@@Wistbacka Nick made the bulk of his fortune with the BSB post 18 & continues to still make an absolute killing today, but certainly would have been played by his parents in terms of monetary gain for a few years at least before coming of age! Unlike Aaron thou who was only seven & managed by his mom when he began performing, Nick was a teenager & the eldest child of the family when he started & he wasn’t managed by his mom & had the protection & fortitude of group management. Really, Aaron’s star rose high & fell hard while he was still a kid & he was bankrupt (thanks to his parents greed & spending) by 18 when he tried to access his earnings of what should have been at least 20 million dollars back then but alas, there was none. His parents should have served jail time but Aaron wouldn’t allow it. He still loved them & desperately needed their “love”. They were scum but Aaron always stood by them. Unbelievably sad story that u wish was fiction 💔
So sad cuz I so remember that episode and I remember saying what a cute child. now I didn't follow him and I didn't know he died. did he have aids? or was everyone told he overdose? just curious, this 😔 sad o my goodness.
@@nichelleloh6659 Incredibly sad 😢 He didn’t die of AIDS, he died of a broken heart & mind & subsequently, a longstanding addiction to benzodiazepines that helped him cope with the trauma & tragedy of his short, sad life. Just look at his eyes. They were deep, dark & tired & experienced far too much sorrow too soon in his young, abused life 💔 He was extremely intelligent both emotionally & intellectually & that actually played against him in the end... Gone way too soon but there’s some solace in the peace he now finally receives 🤍🙏
@@Bridgette_1111 Thanks for the informative insight. You probably dont know, but is there any reason Nick didnt step in? He must have known what was going on?
I was obsessed with this boy as an 8 year old child. He was the first concert I went to and begged my mom to go. I even wrote fan letters to him. I never had an obsession like this with any other celebrity. Idk why other than I found him adorable. RIP my first crush 💕
But we knew. He told us in numerous interviews what battles he was fighting and got bullied more after disclosing his struggles. In fact people used his vulnerabilities as fodder to hurt him just because they can hurt someone without consequences shielded by their keyboards. Those people don't care that they contributed to a tragedy. And they will continue to do it because most people tend towards deviousness when they know they can get away with it anonymously.
I hate he left this world without ever gaining peace. R.i.h young carter. May God shine his blessings over your broken heart. There is nothing more sad than dying with a broken heart.
This is unbelievably sad. It is a powerful reminder that we cannot ignore. Others are truly struggling and crying out for help. We can’t keep recognizing afterwords or only when tragedy strikes. This includes me, we can do better! We must.😢
News of his death made me feel such relief for him.There are endless jaw- dropping compilation videos of his comically outlandish compulsive lying, insufferable delusions of grandeur, abrasive posturing and volatile mood swings. But beyond the obnoxious egomania was obviously a desperate, lost soul. Similar to Corey Feldman and Amanda Bynes, coming from toxic dysfunctional families, and exploited by the entertainment industry, there seems no hope that such insidious, profound damage could ever be corrected. Restoring “ normalcy” requires some core foundation of stability to return to. Unfortunately, kids like Aaron are commodities - products to market, to attract audiences of consumers. imagine the tactics used to coerce a kid into sacrificing their natural instincts to become an obedient , hardworking puppet that takes direction and tows the company line with a smile. The directors, producers, etc. moved on with new projects once his “ teen idol”part was done. Poor Aaron had no concept of all the lessons Other kids grew up learning from schools and families who were concerned with teaching them the life skills needed to be well rounded, level-headed future adults with strong morals and good character. Aaron never stood a chance. I’m glad he’s in a better place. I see all the hate Jojo Siwa’s getting and it’s weird people don’t see she’s pretty much a clueless puppet doing what she’s told….
His pain is palpable. I hope Aaron has found the peace that eluded him here...🙏💖 Edit: corrected my spelling mistake so as not to trigger people or take away from the content of my message regarding Aaron.
@@nanabanana1983you know exactly what they mean spelling/grammar nazi. I’ve spent my life learning grammar and I used to be the “online corrector” until I realized there’s no real point in doing so. Some people may not have had the opportunity for an education that taught these things. Some people speak more than one language. English isn’t everyone’s primary language. It may come as a surprise but not everyone is American. People like you who constantly tear people down and make fun of them are the exact people this video is referring to. Stop thinking you are better than everyone else and you might find a little more happiness in your own life. Take care.
This is so heartbreaking 💔 You can just see it in his eyes & read it on his face how much he was hurting 😢 I wish I could’ve given him a hug…God rest his soul✝️
That takes a lot of COURAGE knowing that something is going to tear your entire life apart and yet you still go and put on a BRAVE face even though you are hurting horribly. MAN THAT TAKES HEART AND COURAGE. WHAT A REAL MAN IN THE FACE OF DESPAIR..... REST EASY AARON
Just imagine all the heartless little pricks that poked fun at this interview and commented worse things than what Aaron was saying they said about him. Truly suck and twisted world we have. It’s not what I ever thought would happen. Unless of course, you go by the Bible, because it’s nothing but bad news in the end.
He's crying like a little baby because people said mean stuff to him on Twitter. Maybe stay off Twitter, man up, idk. There's many options other than crying.
@@ructionradius2888 because he's a human and he has feelings. He didn't cry like a baby either, he spoke with maturity when he cried. So how exactly did he cry like a baby?
My heart will always hurt for him. People failed him. He was a sweet and kind soul, he only ever needed help. Makes me sad.. may he rest in the peace he deserves.
Extremely sad. Reminds me of MJ. Everyone who were supposed to be there for them abandoned them in their time of need. People please always be kind. So heartbreaking.
Fuck junkies. I'll say that to a junkie in person. This spoiled POS had even less of a reason to be a worthless piece of human garbage then most of them.
I will never be able to understand how people can be so cruel. Breaks my heart to see his pain. And so many are in pain walking among us. We have no idea what the smallest of kindness can do for someone else.
@@jonasfullkvist9137 Yeah, keep him accountable, but get him help. Everyone was bullying this poor man. If society had more of a helping hand, the world could become a bit of a better place. Instead they bully people behind their phone screens and drive others to kill themselves.
Social media is a cowards paradise, it’s used by bullies as a platform to destroy peoples lives with their cruel and vicious words, sometimes I just can’t believe how vile those people can be, God rest your soul Aaron.🙏
I've known him since he was 10 years old. He was a great kid. He listened to everyone until he became an adult. Something triggered him around 2009 and he became distant from a lot of people. He went down the wrong path and was slowly trying to do better. We all miss him. 😔
@@iceman6518 I know he didn't kill himself. Too many shady ass people. Someone did something and pinned it as he did it to himself. Just like others who mysteriously died the same way, it's definitely shady AF!
@@djcgarcia yes something seems goofy. Especially after hearing Whitney might have been murdered and they celebrated in her room shortly after. Then they double down with her daughter maby? Because 3 carter's same way. How to Hollywood murder someone just OD them zero to little investigation. Curt kobain Mac Miller seems like a system might be easy to creat to get away with people who know problems and have problems themselves and are a liability. Well time for me to get my aluminum foil hat made lol. 👀
@@BigBadJerryRogers He was into drugs, yes, but he did NOT kill himself. He had sponsors and he was clean when he supposedly OD. He was finally getting back on track. It took him awhile. A few months sober was better than not being sober at all. He knew what he had done and he was fixing his problems. Then out of the blue he's gone?! He didn't want to die, that's why he got help!
I feel so bad for Aaron. Deep down, he was a sweet innocent kind hearted little boy, who just wanted to be loved and protected. Instead the ppl closest to him, used him, abused him, then neglected him when he needed them the most. Then ppl online just piled on the hate. Aaron didn't deserve the bs he received, or the struggles he endured. He never knew he was loved or that he deserved love or that he was worthy of love. Everyone failed Aaron. He was too sweet for this world, and it turned him against himself. And he gave up on himself when everyone else turned their back on him. I pray he is at peace now, no more struggles, and that he knows he is worthy of love and that he is loved. He had the singing voice of an angel, he was so talented and passionate, and I hope he is up their singing rn...💗💗💗💗💗💗
Son...those fans do NOT define you. So young with all that at you...hard. My heart...he was once a sweet little baby..then boy...and then the life around him consumed him...a child's environment is so important..RIP
This is so touching. 😥 I remember him from my childhood and I did not knew what happened to him (I am not from US) After he died, I saw the news I watched some YT videos about what happened to him. That was and is so sad 😥
Not all of us judged you. Addiction is a disease and you happened to be in the spotlight. You should have recieved understanding, grace, and support. So incredibly sad the disease claimed your life. I admire you strength for trying to fight it. Only some of us who know the struggle will ever understand. Rest easy Aaron.🙏😔 ❤️🩹
Even parents and family can cause pain and destruction on an innocent child/person who has done no wrong. The world is filled with hate, cruelty and lack of compassion for others. They all turn a blind eye and when you pass they pretend they care!! RIP I can hear the pain he endured! Poor guy 🙏🏼
Yep just lost my bro to s*icide because of family trauma and lack of remorse/compassion. Such a dark world when so many parents are so quick to sell out and exploit their own children.
Also forgetting the sexual abuse at the hands of the record company, producers, and so on. All these young people were messed with, some overcame it but will never totally be ok, some, like Aaron, were too sensitive for this cruel mean ass world.
I wish I could have met him I would’ve given him the biggest hug and reminded him how amazing and incredibly talented he truly was. What Aaron needed was someone to be there for him during his darkest times. 😢
I find it pathetic how his brother is online crying about losing his twin but wasn’t anywhere near him when he was alive battling drug addiction and mental issues. Family can be some of the fakest people you will ever meet.
😢😢this breaks my heart so much so much bullying on him nobody never understood him i'm so sorry Aaron 😢😢you will always be remembered and forever in my heart may you rest in peace❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Aaron, you're still a beautiful man. The past can't hurt you. Like any departed thing, it is dead and buried. It doesn't reflect who you are TODAY. And it doesn't reflect the happiness you can have -you deserve to have now..
People need to realize that everyone has trauma and is going through something. Choose to be the good you want to see in the world! Be kind so that you will receive the kindness you deserve when you need it.
Specially when it's time for your child's career and your parents still think about their priorities, there isn't anything worse than it. You are really very brave..❤❤❤❤
@@weareallone6148Yes🥺…he died a couple of years ago in 2022. On top of that his sister Bobbi passed away this past December. Both of them from drug overdoses if im not mistaken. This is heartbreaking. God Bless them and I pray they are at peace🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️
I share the same pain with him, my parents separated when I was 9, I was devastated. 😭 I grew up with low self-esteem, the feeling of "no one will be there for you, and catch you" heavily ingrained to myself, that's why I grew distant and cold to other people 😢😭
His depression and raw emotions are heart breaking I wish I could’ve hugged him tight told him he’s not alone and helped him it is so painful to have to try to mask our depression and anxiety I hope his soul is resting in peace
@@skindawg3615 don't know what that is but I didn't mean to come off as disrespectful even though I found his music to be crappy r and b knock off. Calm down tiger
@@jonjones7137 I didn't think you was being disrespectful. Ask Google a simple question tho and you'll get an answer. If you Google what a doylum is... you'll get all the answers in one place.
My childhood wasn’t the worst compared to others but I still have some bad memories. Adult life has also been pretty traumatizing. Going through a pretty nasty divorce. But I see a lot of people, even famous ones I might have been jealous of, also experience these horrible ordeals. So one positive things about it all… I’m not alone
Baby, Hang in there. You are here for a reason. You haven't failed, the horrible people judging you have failed! You are in my prayers 🙏! GOD LOVES YOU!
