Troubled singer Aaron Carter is getting lots of support from fans following his revelation that he is bisexual.
The 29-year-old went on to explain that at around the age of 13 he « started to find boys and girls attractive. »
« There were years that went by that I thought about it, but it wasn’t until I was 17-year-old, after a few relationships with girls, I had an experience with a male that I had an attraction to who I also worked with and grew up with. »
Carter’s candidness was met with an outpouring of love and support from fans and other celebs — including actor Royce Christyn.
Carter was arrested in July in Georgia under suspicion of driving under the influence and marijuana possession as he and then-girlfriend Madison Parker were traveling through Habersham County.
