Backstreet Boys Interview: Nick Carter Talks Former Manager Lou Pearlman

While Nick is talking, if you look at Brian's face, you'll see a mixture of sadness and resentment understandably so. I don't think any of them have ever been able to completely move on from that part of their lives (emotionally that is)

[cranesinthesky]

The more I think about it, the more I’m certain that Lou did something to nick. His behaviour in the documentary (biting of the nails, refusing to go into the house) speaks volumes and highlights the trauma he had faced with that man. Disgusting

[cobaltbluevision]

Brian looks like he was having flashbacks

[MegaMarie]

It must suck to know that Lou is a pervert criminal, but also the person that created them, gave them the opportunity. Damn. They are strong, I would be weak.

[amberordaz]

That was a really great documentary of the Backstreet Boys when it was made.

I bet the abuse contributed to Nick, Aaron and AJ’s substance abuse issues.

I’m glad Nick and AJ are maintaining their sobriety not only for themselves but for their children Ava, Lyric, Odin and Saoirse.

I’m concerned 😟 about Aaron because of the rants on Twitter threatening to kill Nick’s baby and accusing Leslie of molesting him though she died years ago.

So glad that the oldest 3 r from nice humble family background & very well nurtured & wisdom wise with strong heart & will 2 keep going. So the younger 2 with broken family background got strong support system when they stumbled & screwed up. ❤❤❤

It sad that Lou did this to BSB, NSYNC and so many other teen sensations. Also, if anyone remember, this situation is similar to what happen to TLC. This was just on a bigger scale and involved more people getting ripped off. The music industry is a sad industry & can screw you royalty if you don’t know what’s going around you and don’t watch your back!

[midnightstar]

Those poor boys. I hope Lou Pearlman rots in hell! The lowlife, what a disgusting thing to do.

[Nicki]

I can definitely see the conflict they have inside of them, it’s one of those thing that when your mentor gives you the chance to make your mark they will always be appreciate it at the same time a lot of people were hurt because of his crimes.

[tiffanypeek]

That perve doesn't need to be let out

[zenevo]

Leave it to the "Boys" to be polite!  No quarter should be shown for those who take advantage of us, who's agenda in life is to only entertain!

[patrickmaruniak]

Don't forget Lou Pearlman managed O' Town too.

[ericawilliams]

i can't not believe that lou Pearlman would do some like this to the backstreetboys especially nick.

[makemarker]

If someone's surname ends in "man" or "stein", stay clear.

[cketown]

I was just barely a preteen when i saw bsb live for the first time. So sorry they wemt thru this, but they gave me some great memories and outlets to scream my puberty to. Thank you all

[nrtoca]

It's just like Lance Bass said, it went from jolly Lou to like I don't give a fuck about you right now, what a greedy bastard

[PJTubes]

If you watch the documentary by Lance Bass, it was Brian who broke the news to the Boys after dinner with Justin Timberlake. Bae was like "we have to sue him" anyway how about AJ's mustache though!?!

[noelcarden]

He died in prison....sad sad how he took advantage of Bsb nsync and others

[Tarzana]

i just watched the documentary of the 2 boy bands and Lou, and Aaron Carter too. But when Lou died Aaron is the only one who is sad and even cried, but the boy bands didn’t care.
