What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? That's what Backstreet Boy Nick Carter is banking on as he brings together his younger brother, mega pop star Aaron, and their three sisters, Bobbie Jean, Leslie and Angel, to live together as they try to put a turbulent family history behind them.
Like fame, controversy has followed the Carters. Having their parents as Nick and Aaron's managers led to a lot of turmoil and strained many of the familial relationships. Bobbie Jean, Leslie and Angel were often left behind, as their parents toured with Nick and Aaron for months at a time. Aaron's widely publicized petition for legal emancipation from his mother made tabloid headlines, as did their parent's divorce in 2004.
Since then the Carter kids have been living disparate and disjointed lives, and Nick feels it's his job as the oldest of the five siblings to step up to the plate and bring them back together after 10 years of being apart. With just the right combination of motivation, direction and brotherly love, Nick hopes to support his brother and sisters as they pursue personal and career ambitions and help them rediscover the strength of family.
