He definitely harmed Aaron Carter, and manipulated him. His biggest defender despite no rationale, and the most damaged of all the interviewees. It’s sad that Aaron passed.

@I_WANT_MY_SLAW8 ай бұрын
We know for a fact that he groomed Nick Carter. As for Aaron, the clues seem clear as day that Aaron had repressed memories of harm. And it's possible that Aaron gaslit himself into believing Lou was helping him and his career. Which he probably was, because Lou loved money. And he could only screw over hus artists, if they generated inc9me. But we have no actual evidence of Lou doing anything harmful to Aaron. Because whatever harmful things Lou might've done to Aaron, is only truly known between them. And Aaron only ever had great things and wonderful experiences to share about Lou. So if anything bad did happen, Aaron took it to the grave. It's possible that had Aaron lived longer, and gone through intensive therapy, maybe in his 40s, he might've had full clarity, and would've been able to publicly share his truth. But the problem is, Aaron was in denial. And the drugs and alcohol kept him in his own delusion that nothing bad ever happened. But you gotta ask yourself. Because nobody uses drugs and alcohol to go completely numb, if nothing bad ever happened to them.

When anyone male, or female touches you in a way that feels "creepy" that feeling is your gut, and it's a signal to get away fast..... Don't ever allow yourself to be alone with that person ever again, and more importantly tell somebody. Behaviour like that rarely stops at just you............

I would like to add that you have to practice listening to your little voice because your mind will try to talk you out of listening. It will say stuff like what if you're wrong ? What if you make a fool of yourself? You have to learn to trust it because it will never steer you wrong. We have to trust it without question because our life could depend on it.

Thank you to Lance, Alan Gross, all the other members of multiple musical groups, parents, ponzi scheme victims and everyone who took the time to share their stories. It was really upsetting to see the difference in reactions from the older guys (Lance, AJ, JC, Chris) compared to Aaron Carter who was so much younger when his fame took off and the raw emotion when he was defending Lou.

When people say 'I've made you/i found you in the gutter/you'd be nothing without me', it makes me livid. Top-tier manipulation. One can put millions into something/someone and there'd still be nothing if there's no talent, hard work and a lot of luck. So yeah, one can help and finance, but ultimately talented people do most of the work. They should be paid for. It also reminds me of manipulative parents, who'd try to guilt trip their kids by saying they have provided food and shelter for them, so they should be eternally grateful.

My heart breaks for Aaron. His mannerisms are indicative of somebody that was very seriously groomed from a very young age and shielded from ever needing to think for himself. His manner of speaking, his phrasing, everything he says is very clearly evasive. I have hoped for a long time now that Aaron is able to break free from this hold and truly find himself before his time here is up, and I'll continue to hope so. 🙏🏼💙💫
@monkiram3 жыл бұрын
I think we need to be wary of reading into somebody's mannerisms too much and seeing what we already believe to be true. I don't think there's such a thing as the mannerisms of somebody who's been groomed. Though his body language does seem off to me, it could be for any number of reasons which may not at all be related to Lou Pearlman. If he was the one to do something wrong, that would be one thing but it just makes me uncomfortable that this whole comment section is reading so much into his behaviour, even though we all know that he's likely a victim.

@RyleeCoyote133 жыл бұрын
The fact that the majority of our society has a problematic attitude towards addiction and addicts themselves- of which is largely based off of misconceptions and ignorance- is and will continue to be what has the largest influence on why both the cycle of and stigma towards addiction continue. Narcissistic behavior is disgusting and needs addressing on both an individual level and a societal level, but due to the fact that it doesn't have such an extreme effect on the chemical makeup of the brain it can be addressed much easier and the habits that come as a result can be broken. Narcissistic behavior, while learned, can be changed. While it's one of many words that have started to get thrown around a lot and in many cases might not always be true, it is a negative character trait on a social level when looking at true cases. Addiction isn't an inherently negative trait, it's a difficult one. Addiction, being an oddity within one's chemical make up of their brain, should not be used to negatively classify someone. Call him a narcissist if you please, although I don't know that I'd agree just because I haven't followed him closely enough in recent years to confidently say one way or the other, but calling him an "addict narcissist" in a way meant to be a jab at who he is as a person is not it.

I read the Vanity Article that was written 15 years ago I think that exposed Lou Pearlman's homosexuality/pedophilia. The article stated that something very bad happened between Lou and Nick from the Backstreet Boys which is Aaron's older brother. Their mother also confirmed it and stated that Nick never wanted be alone with Lou. It basically insinuated that Nick was molested. I think Aaron is in extreme denial and that's why he's so defensive of Lou. He was chosen as a solo artist by Lou and definitely groomed by him around the age of 9. It's sad :( before I actually watched this documentary I saw a preview of Aaron and I thought for sure he was not only going to confirm Lou's pedophilia but also reveal slot of things. I was quite shocked that it was the complete opposite
