Aaron Carter is going to boot camp. The singer, 31, has joined the cast of WE tv’s Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars Family Edition, along with his mother, Jane Carter, to deal with harboring feelings of resentment and betrayal.
In a new interview conducted after the show, the actor reveals that the counseling he received in Boot Camp helped him work through his complex relationship with the late Michael Jackson.
“Michael was a really good guy as far as I know,” Carter, 31, says. “He never did anything that was inappropriate except for one time. There was one thing that he did that was a little bit inappropriate.”

“Everyone having my back I appreciate you,” Carter, 31, tweeted on Tuesday, May 21. “My reasoning for even speaking on this subject is to tell my truth, be real and to also have his back based on my experiences with Michael. he was an amazing guy, I stand by that. So I ask u not to turn this into something it isn’t.”
He did not further elaborate but his statement does come as a surprise as Carter has stood by Jackson over the years. In 2001, the King of Pop met a then 14-year-old Carter and asked him to be part of his charity song “What More Can I Give?” The two had a close relationship and Carter recorded multiple covers of Jackson’s hits.
He’s also come to the defense of Jackson many times. In 2016, the “I Want Candy” singer told Us that he never listens to those who talk poorly about the icon.
“Michael was an amazing man. All the people who ever said anything about him are just all full of crap. I was there with Michael and I know him. I know his true colors,” the “Hard to LØVË” singer said at the time. “I got so much hate when I said that Michael Jackson passed the torch to me. You guys realize that I have his jacket. I have his glove. I have lots of things from him — memorabilia that I would never even tell you about that’s sitting in a vault right now.”
On Marriage Boot Camp, Carter will also dive into his complicated relationship with brother Nick. “My brother and I weren’t talking before I went onto this show,” he says in another clip. “After we did it, we’re back [to] talking again.”
In 2017, the “Don’t Say Goodbye” singer opened up to Us about his family dynamic. “I’m close with my siblings, but it’s not like what you think. I’m close to my siblings like I am with … like Michael Jackson was with his,” he told Us at the time. “Like, that’s how I am. It’s weird if you think about it. I don’t know. I knew Michael very well, and he told me a lot of things that I can’t really repeat just because it would be everywhere.”
Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars Family Edition will premiere on WE tv later this year.
Hot news:
Paris Jackson, 25, claps back after being called ‘old and haggard’ in makeup-free selfie
Paris Jackson was criticized for her looks on social media once more as people deemed her “old” and “haggard.”
Just beat it!
Paris Jackson, 25, hit back at online trolls who called her “old and haggard.”
“This is no filter, no makeup and regular lighting for the people that wrote really s—ty comments about how old and haggard I look in my last video,” she captioned an Instagram video Thurday where she showed off her bare face.
“I am literally 25. Just young and haggard, thank you very much.”
The model was addressing the criticism she got after showing off her glam look at the Christian Louboutin “Rouge Stiletto” Beauty Event during Paris Fashion Week on Thursday.

For the event, the only daughter of music icon Michael Jackson rocked a maroon satin button down with matching trousers. She paired the look with black stilettos, a brown purse and a glam makeup look.
While several fans were quick to compliment the singer’s “beautiful smile” and “perfect” look, others chose to comment negatively.
“I am literally 25. Just young and haggard, thank you very much,” she concluded her message. Paris Jackson/Instagram
“OMG she looks so old I’m not a hater I like her but I don’t remember the moment she took age that fast,” one person wrote.
“What’s? What happened to her?” another added while another bluntly asked, “How old is she? She looks 50.”
Following the nasty comments, many fans defended her, blaming the lighting in the video.
“Oh, it’s the lighting! Who the heck can’t discern it’s the lighting!?! ,” one person explained as another one added, “Relax people the light is causing a shadow on her face. Why is old such a label for undesirable beauty standards anyway!? She is beautiful and deserves to be treated with kindness. Not to mention she’s young and the lighting off.”

Despite the calls for kindess, this is not the first time that Paris has had to defend herself from nasty trolls.
Last month, she clapped back at comments about her unshaven armpits, which could be seen in a sweet tribute video for what would have been the “Thriller” hitmaker’s 5th birthday.
In the clip posted to Instagram on Aug. 29, Paris’ pits were on full display as she tied up her hair while recalling memories with her late father.

A day later, she responded to commenters who said she only posted the video to show that she doesn’t shave.
“i wasn’t tying my hair up to show off my armpit hair,” Paris wrote on Twitter. “i’ve not shaved it for years and forget it’s there all the time. get over yourselves.”
She concluded her message, cheekily adding, “i was pulling my hair up to show my glass cutting jawline.”

Coincidentally, in the tribute video, Paris explained why she felt the need to publicly wish her late dad a happy birthday.
“There have been times where I don’t post anything for my dad’s birthday, and people lose their f—ing minds. They tell me to kill myself,” she explained.
“And they’re basically measuring my love for my own father based off of what I post on Instagram.”
She also slammed the people who judged her for not publicly commemorating Michael Jackson on his birthday or death anniversary.
Paris added that her dad “used to hate anybody acknowledging his birthday.”
“He actually didn’t want us to even know when his birthday was because he didn’t want us to throw a party,” she explained.
Aside from Paris, the “Smooth Criminal” singer also fathered sons Prince Jackson, 2 , and Blanket “Bigi” Jackson, 21.
Michael died of acute propofol intoxication on June 25, 2009. He was just 50 years old.
