Continuing his penchant for baffling statements, former child star Aaron Carter has seemingly changed his story about Michael Jackson. Carter now implies that Jackson may have molested him, even though he denied it in the past.
The “Aaron’s Party” singer said this weekend that he intends to tell his own story about his experience with Jackson. He also showed remorse for attacking the documentary Leaving Neverland. In the past, Carter had staunchly defended Jackson and labeled the Leaving Neverland accusers Wade Robeson and James Safechuck “liars.”

“To be honest,” Carter says, “after seeing everyone’s story unfold I was a little aggressive when I talked about it at first. Everyone has their own stories, everyone has their own situations. I really can’t take away from that. I don’t know…In regards to that situation, I actually have my own experience that happened with Michael, so I will be talking about that in the future.”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Carter declined to comment further or to characterize his “experience” with Jackson as abuse. He said only that he will be writing a memoir, and that he intends to tell all.
“I’ll always have his back though,” Carter added, further confusing his insinuations. In the past, Carter has made strange and often contradictory claims, including coming out as bisexual only to later deny he had done so. Carter has also defended former music svengali Lou Pearlman against allegations of sexual misconduct.

Oh Aaron.

Atton is pretty much grasping at $traws….

It’s just like when he said that he was gay when he realized later he wasn’t. What are the other ways that he can be make himself relevant?
Jared MacBride
He’ll be writing a memoir. Straight to the $1 book bin.

Headline is click bait he didn’t hint that Jackson molested him!

Except he said…
” I actually have my own experience that happened with Michael, so I will be talking about that in the future.””

Further proof that drugs destroy your looks, mind, morals & bank account.
QueerTruth
Maybe less stories about this loser.
He’s denied his bisexuality…. so please stop covering him.
Donston
This is where I’m forced to defend him a bit. He never embraced a bi identity. The media did that for him. He claimed that he had some attractions to dudes and had a sexual experience with a guy but ultimately doesn’t see himself being with a guy and doesn’t really see himself as bi. That is what that is. At least half of people who have some bisexuality/dimensions/fluidity in their orientation or people who have indulged bi behaviors don’t really see themselves as “authentically bi”. And you don’t really have any control over anyone’s life, sense of self or identity.
Now, “coming out”, like seemingly everything else he does, was merely about garnering attention, sympathy and money. And he does come off like a generally manipulative, drug addicted, headcase-y guy. That makes it impossible to take anything the dude says seriously.
MonkeyMan
@Donston: Don’t defend Aaron. He deliberately went along with the story and was super vague most of the time. He took it as far as insinuating that it was some sort of revelation and that a burden had been taken off his shoulders once he came out. When SoMe was referring to him as a part of the LGBT+ community he didn’t come out with statements or post anything on his Instagram to deny it. Instead, he seized the opportunity and had hundreds of LGBT people show up to his concerts and show him support only to go on TV a couple of months later and basically deny anything and blame the media for misconstruing the story.
The fact remains that Aaron has desperately been trying to get his music career to take off after his childhood stardom and will say and do everything to get on shows and create “moments” for people to empathize with his alleged plight.
The guy is in serious need of a psychiatrist and rehab and needs to quit trying to be a pop star that hardly anyone likes and nobody trusts.
Donston
My main point was that shi*tting on him for claiming some type of same-sex attractions but not embracing being seen as “bi” is not fair. That’s something that QueerTruth has done in the past. As long as someone is being real about their dimensions, their struggles and who they know they want to love/be with who cares about their personal identity? As someone who has some dimensions/fluidity in their orientation but still sees themselves as “gay” and who has friends who are inherently bi but identify as variety of different stuff, I can say that this is ridiculously common. Many people who aren’t completely hetero or homo (perhaps most) don’t really fit into “bi pride” mode of things. While a full-on, standalone bi identity often isn’t practical. I’m also defending the fact that he never really embraced any “label”.
However, I’m not defending his manipulation. I’m not defending that he created a “coming out circus” and did so on purpose. There’s no doubt it was perhaps entirely about self-promotion and attention. And he allowed the media/social media to take it wherever they wished until he realized it wasn’t working in his favor. The dude rather obviously has some serious issues.

David, stop writing stories about Aaron Carter. You’re never, evah, evah gonna get it. No matter how much you try to keep him in the spotlight. you are never evah evah gonna get to tap that skinny, meth addicted, singer.

How old this guy anyway? He looks older than his age I think.

He either smells money or he smells the coke again…. Dude needs help…. or attention…. or just both….

didn’t he die recently?

What a piece of shit! Anything to sell some books. Who wants to read a book about a washed up drug addict that I am sure will overdose before he is 40.

A mess.
ShiningSex
I’m sure Michael Jackson was a pedo. It’s not shocking, but Aaron is a mess too. Shocked he’s still alive.
batesmotel
What visual proof do you have that he was a Pedo? Yes, he’s unusual and unusual looking, so it’s easy to brand the unusual one a pedo even though there really is no 100% guaranteed proof. I can say someone molested me and everyone will automatically believe it, even though it’s a lie.

Angry nasty bitches or right on the money? I think everyone is just stating the obvious.
fpcinnyc
Aaron this is not the way to get attention or your sad career back.
joelk57
Sadly Aaron has been a mess the better part of his life. I’m not sure he really remembers what went on in his early years. Also after you have been irrelevant for so long you will do almost anything to be in the limelight again.
Not sure I can give much credence to his claims now…..
MHaumesser
Just like the other has beens in that ridiculous documentary they all are washed and said under oath in their 20s that nothing happened to them with Michael Jackson. Now that Michael is gone this is the only way they can make money and try to make themselves relevant still. If you were alive back when all this was going on you’d remember that Michael was never convicted of any wrongdoing and that the FBI investigation found nothing had happened between any of these men. It’s incredible how they have waited 10 years after his death to drag him through the mud since he can’t defend any of these Allegations!
Chrisk
I believe his accusers are not “has beens”. Both have been quite successful in their own fields.
batesmotel
It’s to get media attention so they can sell whatever product they’re selling. I’ve never heard of them until this. And I still don’t know what they do for a living.
Donston
At this point he’s been accused by five people (not including Aaron since he didn’t really say much of anything). Dismissing all those accusations throughout the decades isn’t very smart. Furthermore, a couple of the adult males who have accused Jackson don’t seem to be selling anything or looking for money. And just because someone comes off cray-cray and manipulative doesn’t mean they’re not telling the truth. There’s often reasons why someone seems off their rocker. While many people don’t come forward with stuff like this until they’ve reached adulthood. It can be especially embarrassing for men to do so, since there’s the male ego that comes into play as well as knowing people will question the dimensions of your orientation.
DCguy
Jackson paid out over 20 million to a kid to drop a case so lets not pretend this didn’t happen.
Hdtex
Literally…..NOBODY. CARES.
Chrisk
I wonder what he’ll do next?I’m a drug addict, I’m a anorexic, I’m a bisexual, I got molested by Michael Jackson.,,

I think his only options left are “leaked” porn or being exploited by Dr Drew.
Ashke113
Leave it to Aaron Carter to try to latch onto anything that might help him resurrect his long dead career. Does he have new album coming out or something?……
batesmotel
Isn’t this the guy that’s on drugs or something? He’ll say anything to get what little press attention will give it to him at this point. He doesn’t have anything else going for him. Let’s make up a scandal so he can be #1 and trending.
DakotaDuke
Sadly and unfortunately he is strongly addicted to drugs and hasn’t hit rock bottom enough to seek real help. Until then his life is nothing more than fantasies and nightmares intermingling. He is prone to making outrageous claims and denials about everything.
MonkeyMan
The media needs to stop putting fire under Aaron’s lies and manipulative behavior and help him get to a psychiatrist that will medicate him.
Don’t listen to him, he doesn’t know what he wants or needs and is a hardcore substance abuser. He will do everything and anything to be seen and heard and have a career.
Empathize with his need to see a psychiatrist and get out of the entertainment industry but do not buy into his lies!

Highly flammable.
Needs negative attention to survive. Untrustworthy. Lacks cred.
An unentertaining mess. Great with popcorn if into horror movies.
djmcgamester
Hard to believe anything that comes out of his mouth when he keeps changing his story.
GayEGO
Oh my! Aaron certainly looks gay……..but as for being molested by Jackson……it was probably consensual!
one more thing
Damn he looks like he’s been rode hard!!!
JackKirby
And put away wet
DCguy
At this point, and it may be dumb of me, but I just feel bad for the guy. Any story on him that pops up just seems more sad than the last. Maybe Jackson did molest him, he certainly seems traumatized, but something needs to change in his life.

desperately trying to remain relevant and seeking attention.

why don’t they just leave Michael alone? the man has been dead for ten years now. whatever happened or didn’t happen is now between him and God. we need to let it go.
Bryguyf69
What god? So it doesn’t matter to you that crimes may have been committed, and that his victims are still alive, and possibly still suffering the psychological effects? Or that his accusers are vilified by his fans and family as liars? For some bizarre reason, you think that when a crime is committed, the only ones involved is the perp and his god. How sad that you neglect to acknowledge that there are victims, and that the victims have families.
Bryguyf69
To all the haters accusing Carter of being a Limelight Wh0re…
Yes, he may be desperate for attention BUT — I’ll come to his defense in this case. TMZ approached him in the airport. It’s not like he called the press, or released a press release. He didn’t even tweet the information. Carter did not raise the issue unsolicited. He was asked directly about the Jackson accusations by the reporter (because of the premiere of Leaving Neverland). What else was he supposed to say? A non-committal answer like, “I’ll talk more about it in the future” is perfect.
JackKirby
His PR people alerted the media of his arrival with that moleststion tease in a release.
draven
If Michael was doing these horrible things that they said he was doing wouldn’t his bodyguards pick up on that?
They were around 25/8.
Just speculation.
