Pop music performer Aaron Carter came from a show business family as the brother of Backstreet Boy Nick Carter. Young Carter first made waves in the early 2000s with a primarily pre-teen fan base, joining the ranks of other tween idols like Hilary Duff. He also made the rounds as an actor in the same crowd, appearing on family-friendly shows like Lizzie McGuire, 7th Heaven, and Sabrina the Teenage Witch. In 2006, Carter and his siblings signed on to appear in the reality show House of Carters, revealing much of the pain and dysfunction that lingered under the surface of their lives. Reality TV was a good fit for Carter, and he signed on to appear on the competitive reality show Dancing with the Stars in 2009.
