      WHO: Aaron Carter, age 14, is the youngest male solo artist to
        have four Top 40 singles. His music career was jumpstarted
        when he began to perform with his older brother's (Nick
        Carter) hit band, Backstreet Boys.

          Soon after those performances, he landed a contract and
        quickly released his first full-length album. His self-titled
        debut was a big success around the globe. His second album,
        "Aaron's Party (Come Get It)," was a smash hit - it even
        peaked at number four on the Billboard charts. The success of
        the album led to a gig as opening act for Britney Spears and
        the "Favorite Rising Star" award from the Nickelodeon Kids'
        Choice Awards.

          His most recent album, "Oh Aaron," was released in August
        2001.
