Backstreet Boys’ Nick Carter sparks concern over his VERY thin figure in new selfie

BBG News

Fans expressed worry about the health of Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys after his recent selfie appeared to show him being unusually slim, which he shared on Wednesday.

The 45-year-old member of a boy band, with over 6.9 million followers on his social media platforms, posted a sunny photo and wrote as a caption: “Absorbing some warmth from Las Vegas before today’s practice sessions.

Looking at photos of Nick, from the present day compared to 2022, appears to indicate that he might be using a fashionable GLP-1 agonist medication.

Notable personalities such as Oprah Winfrey, Kathy Bates, Kelly Clarkson, Whoopi Goldberg, Meghan Trainor, Elon Musk, Rebel Wilson, Chelsea Handler, Amy Schumer, Sharon Osbourne, Sheryl Underwood, Lauren Manzo, Dolores Catania, and Golnesa ‘GG’ Gharachedaghi are some who have openly acknowledged using injectables.

While a significant number of celebrities openly discuss their use of Ozempic, there are numerous others who have not spoken up about their weight loss, such as Lizzo, Mindy Kaling, Melissa McCarthy, Khloé Kardashian, Lana Del Rey, Christina Aguilera, Ricki Lake, and Patricia Arquette.

The FDA has endorsed three medications that belong to the GLP-1 class, exclusively for weight loss management – namely Wegovy (semaglutide), Saxenda (liraglutide), and Zepboun (tirzepatide) – while the remainder of these drugs are primarily for individuals dealing with type 2 diabetes.

A glance at Carter’s most recent Instagram comments suggests that a significant number of his followers are convinced that he is using Ozempic.

Instagram user @the_schuermanns posted a crying emoji and wrote: ‘Maybe he took some Ozempic.’

‘He looks very unhealthy,’ Instagram user @michaelhilt0n commented. ‘Hope he is okay!’

Instagram user @andreia.sewa expressed concern with a sad emoticon and said, “I’m afraid you seem quite slender to me, @nickcarter! I just want to make sure you’re doing well! Sending my love to you!

@kaosnickgirl44 posted, ‘Hey Nick, you always seem fabulous! Just remember not to push yourself too hard with your health and wellness routine, alright? We appreciate you just the way you are!’

Instagram user @hfreeman722 commented: ‘Need to gain some weight back.’

The eight-time Grammy nominee, previously weighing in at 240 pounds, now seems to keep his lean 6-foot-1 build by engaging in regular dance practice, taking swings with a baseball bat, and playing the occasional round of golf.

Ever since March 2024, I, a devoted fan, can’t help but notice the absence of gym selfies from Nick’s feed. But let me remind you, dear reader, that his commitment to shedding weight and embracing healthier choices dates back to 2021 when he penned those words: “Just gotta get rid of this belly I’ve had since my teenage years.” It’s like a personal journey we’re all following along on!

In 2022, Carter revealed he was ’20 pounds down [with] 10 more to go’ off his ‘dad bod.’

‘I’m nowhere near where I would like to be,’ the Dirty Laundry singer wrote at the time.

‘But I’m closer to my goal to being back in shape before our upcoming residency in Vegas.’

Absolutely, Nick along with his elder group members, AJ McLean, Howie Dorough, Kevin Richardson, and Brian Littrell are set to commence a 21-date residency titled “Into the Millennium Sphere” in Las Vegas starting from July 11.

In the year 2009, Carter disclosed that he lost approximately 65 pounds after giving up his drug and alcohol addiction, which he developed over a ten-year period. This decision came about after he was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy due to his substance abuse habits.

A Gen-X individual who was educated at home is now dealing with his fourth legal action related to sexual assault. The most recent accuser, Laura Penly, claims he sexually assaulted her in 2004 and transmitted HPV, which eventually led to her being diagnosed with stage 2 cervical cancer.

The home-educated Gen-X person is dealing with his fourth lawsuit for sexual assault. Laura Penly says that in 2004 he raped her and gave her HPV, which caused her to develop stage 2 cervical cancer.

In a statement made to TMZ in April, Nick’s legal representatives, Liane K. Wakayama and Dale Hayes Jr., expressed that the ongoing actions by the group of alleged conspirators and their lawyers are merely more instances of misusing the judicial system with the intention of damaging Nick.

The approach they’re using is quite predictable: bide their time for decades, wait until Mr. Carter achieves a significant career accomplishment, and then, concealed by the veil of litigation privilege, they spread blatantly false accusations with the intention of causing the greatest harm to Nick and his loved ones.

In terms of family life, Carter is a father of three: his eldest son, Odin, is 9 years old; his daughter Saoirse is 5; and Pearl, another daughter, is 4. He has been married for 11 years to the founder of Crypto Café, Lauren Kitt Carter.

Sadly, the actor on The Carters: Hurts to Love You, experienced the tragic passing of his younger brother Aaron in 2022. He was only 34 years old and unfortunately drowned after accidentally inhaling difluoroethane and ingesting alprazolam, also known as Xanax.
