He definitely harmed Aaron Carter, and manipulated him. His biggest defender despite no rationale, and the most damaged of all the interviewees. It’s sad that Aaron passed. He was so vulnerable and I believe Lou took advantage of that and it’s prob the reason why Aaron got so messed up. It’s all horrible.
@I_WANT_MY_SLAW
@I_WANT_MY_SLAW Месяц назад
We know for a fact that he groomed Nick Carter. As for Aaron, the clues seem clear as day that Aaron had repressed memories of harm. And it's possible that Aaron gaslit himself into believing Lou was helping him and his career. Which he probably was, because Lou loved money. And he could only screw over hus artists, if they generated inc9me. But we have no actual evidence of Lou doing anything harmful to Aaron. Because whatever harmful things Lou might've done to Aaron, is only truly known between them. And Aaron only ever had great things and wonderful experiences to share about Lou. So if anything bad did happen, Aaron took it to the grave. It's possible that had Aaron lived longer, and gone through intensive therapy, maybe in his 40s, he might've had full clarity, and would've been able to publicly share his truth. But the problem is, Aaron was in denial. And the drugs and alcohol kept him in his own delusion that nothing bad ever happened. But you gotta ask yourself. Because nobody uses drugs and alcohol to go completely numb, if nothing bad ever happened to them.

And when your at the top its even more awful and lonely, little to no one is genuine because they just want to talk to you because your famous, or want something. like a picture with you. Its so degrading and dehumanizing. You're never really free or can go anywhere to have a day off because people will mob you wherever you go, your existence is mostly one secure place to another. It all has a very heavy price that still to this day no one wants to talk about.

I remember following the *NSYNC vs Lou case when it was happening, but I (a teen in 1998) didn't fully comprehend how bad it was or how deep it really went until I watched this doc. Thank you to Lance, Alan Gross, all the other members of multiple musical groups, parents, ponzi scheme victims and everyone who took the time to share their stories. It was really upsetting to see the difference in reactions from the older guys (Lance, AJ, JC, Chris) compared to Aaron Carter who was so much younger when his fame took off and the raw emotion when he was defending Lou. I'm so happy that *NSYNC have been coming back in the media since the VMAs this year and I can't wait to hear their new song in just a few days!

When he says his take on if Lou was a pedophile, that pause before he says “that is not true” sounds like for a second he wondered if he should answer differently. Then he goes into the diamond push up thing and that’s just, those have nothing to do with each other. That was a horrible example and anyone can be a predator, even if they teach you how to do better push ups even though they themselves don’t look like they ever did a day of exercise in their life.

My heart breaks for Aaron. His mannerisms are indicative of somebody that was very seriously groomed from a very young age and shielded from ever needing to think for himself. His manner of speaking, his phrasing, everything he says is very clearly evasive. I have hoped for a long time now that Aaron is able to break free from this hold and truly find himself before his time here is up, and I'll continue to hope so. 🙏🏼💙💫

I think we need to be wary of reading into somebody's mannerisms too much and seeing what we already believe to be true. I don't think there's such a thing as the mannerisms of somebody who's been groomed. Though his body language does seem off to me, it could be for any number of reasons which may not at all be related to Lou Pearlman. If he was the one to do something wrong, that would be one thing but it just makes me uncomfortable that this whole comment section is reading so much into his behaviour, even though we all know that he's likely a victim.

@RyleeCoyote13
@RyleeCoyote13 2 года назад
The fact that the majority of our society has a problematic attitude towards addiction and addicts themselves- of which is largely based off of misconceptions and ignorance- is and will continue to be what has the largest influence on why both the cycle of and stigma towards addiction continue. Narcissistic behavior is disgusting and needs addressing on both an individual level and a societal level, but due to the fact that it doesn't have such an extreme effect on the chemical makeup of the brain it can be addressed much easier and the habits that come as a result can be broken. Narcissistic behavior, while learned, can be changed. While it's one of many words that have started to get thrown around a lot and in many cases might not always be true, it is a negative character trait on a social level when looking at true cases. Addiction isn't an inherently negative trait, it's a difficult one. Addiction, being an oddity within one's chemical make up of their brain, should not be used to negatively classify someone. Call him a narcissist if you please, although I don't know that I'd agree just because I haven't followed him closely enough in recent years to confidently say one way or the other, but calling him an "addict narcissist" in a way meant to be a jab at who he is as a person is not it.

It's funny how some senior Millennials like myself genuinely enjoyed all the music released by BSB and *NSYNC back in the day, ignoring the evil corporate machine Lou Pearlman was at the time. Even when everyone suffered from his acts, I'm glad the music prevails and I'm personally thankful for having it all as the soundtrack of my late teen - early adult years. Now the lyrics to songs such has "Tearin' Up My Heart" and "Bye, Bye, Bye" feel like they reflect how the boys felt about Pearlman.

When people say 'I've made you/i found you in the gutter/you'd be nothing without me', it makes me livid. Top-tier manipulation. One can put millions into something/someone and there'd still be nothing if there's no talent, hard work and a lot of luck. So yeah, one can help and finance, but ultimately talented people do most of the work. They should be paid for. It also reminds me of manipulative parents, who'd try to guilt trip their kids by saying they have provided food and shelter for them, so they should be eternally grateful.

Bad contracts are so insidious and unfortunately very common in the entertainment industry. I remember when I found out that one of my favorite rock bands Chevelle revealed they were in a bad contract for years and made next to nothing just like these guys and were considering retirement. Apparently the label were playing hardball and didn't want to pay the band what they wanted and what they're worth. So because of some assholes insatiable greed and nonexistent moral code the world could be shorted of amazing music and art? That is so wrong to me. Imagine all the unsung songs, the unfilmed movies, undone paintings ect that only exist inside the hearts and souls of all the true artists out there who are working retail, fast food, factories, being office drones.. All real art is smothered by crushed dreams and these dreams are murdered by wealthy capitalists who only care about using artists for a stolen paycheck. Sad.

This story is crazy! Lou pinned the bands against one another to keep them from coming together and talking about him....he prob knew that they would get along famously. The idea of competition against song artists is ridiculous. It's not like fans can't listen to both or all music. I personally never understood that. I remember being the only girl that like both bands and I couldn't understand why I had to choose a side.
