    AJ Im sure this wasn't easy to talk about what u went through but I'm proud of you for doing it. I know Aaron appreciates it to. I've been a fan and listening to your music from the beginning 30 years later . Aaron was a year younger than I was . I love u guys and extra hugs and love to Nick angel and the backstreet boys. Your in my heart and my prayers. Thank you for being the voice for Aaron .

    AJ was the one that hurled Nick into a hug on stage in London. He can relate so much with what happened. He was the perfect one to speak on this. Looks like he got emotional while Nick sang. He feels Nick pain and so does the rest of the guys. I’m glad Nick has them esp because this is a forever loss.🤍I don’t think Nick will be able to talk about what fully happened for awhile. It was said he and Aaron were slowly making amends which means he probably did not talk to him yet. Which if that’s the case, is what’s ultimately hurting him.

    This was a needed talk and i imagine he reached someone that night or anyone watching. It's honest open. Beautiful. Addition/mental health can ruin lives

    I'm a recovery addict of 6 years. Addiction is no joke. I hurt so many people that loved and cared about me. I had to hit rockbottom before I got help. Anyone struggling with addiction please get help . My heart goes to anyone who has lost family due to this. Remember you matter.

    Love the shirt AJ!!! I've got many shirts, pants, and a tattoo that says FUCK CANCER!! 1 pair of pants says fuck off.... have a nice day. Seriously though, I'm so proud of you with your sobriety. You saying that about not asking for help and not being an addict. I was diagnosed with bipolar when I was 14. I'm 42 now and just now got help and got the right meds needed so i didn't get on the rollercoaster of high highs where I would spend money on stupid shit and then go down that spiral of hell where I would just cry, hurt myself, and sleep. Much love and respect Alexander James McLean ❤❤

    Aaron Carter was a great talented and popstar singer. I do love Aaron when he was a little boy with high voice when he is 11 to 12 years old with a nice high voice and his blonde haircut on it the one like the second Album of Aaron's Party Come Get It in 2000's. I love Aaron when he is very little sense like in 1999 and 2000's popstars. R.I.P him 1987 2022 Special memories of him when he was little.💿🎶🎵🎤🕊

    It was so irritating to hear the fans scream like they're at a BSB concert while he's talking about something serious. Like, read the room. This isn't the time to be screaming "Woooooooo!"

    AJ just doesn’t seem to fit with the other guys personalities. His cursing and his shirt at this event is odd to me. The other guys seem so much more Christian. Not saying he isn’t a nice or caring guy but a bit rough around the edges.

    He definitely has a bit of an identity complex in terms of the style band he is in… but he was alwaaays branded as the “bad one” even when I was a kid in the early 90s

    His rawness and realness is sometimes what's needed especially when it comes to topics like this because sobriety and drugs and abuse (not saying they talked about abuse but topics as such) ARE raw and real. Had he dressed more "christian" it would have looked more odd

    BSB looks like their lil Charity event , really worked on making them the center of it all, that's what it was really all about, ever since that Charity event Angel & Nick did in honor of their Brother ,I did not see any honoring of Aaron not even recognizing his talent, this event was not only a charity event a huge publicity stunt, it's worked to take any negative eye off any negative Press of Nick, it's promoting the solo song of Nick, The recovery of AJ's 20 year addiction cmon now, it only take a lil common sense , but thy again successfully succeeded !!!! BSB alright !!!! Love it
