Legal documents cited by TMZ reveal that the alleged victim was 17 years old at the time of the alleged incident. She would have been invited by Carter to board the Backstreet Boys tour bus, while she was waiting in line for autographs.

Once on the bus, according to the document, Carter took her into the bathroom stall and ordered her to perform oral sex on him.

After the alleged act, Carter allegedly led him to a bed to continue his assault. Once the event was over, Shannon Ruth allegedly threatened Carter to report him, but Carter retorted with an insult and said that no one would believe her.

Recall that the Backstreet Boys main star has faced serious sexual misconduct allegations in the past, but has never been criminally charged.

According to TMZ, at least one source close to Nick said the accusations were categorically false and that he has been focusing on his family since the death of his brother Aaron.

Aaron Carter, however, who tragically died recently, had himself accused his brother of several indecent acts, including on Twitter and in an interview.

Kim Cattrall joins And Just Like That… and the web goes wild

Fans of Sex In The City were delighted to learn that actress Kim Cattrall who played Samantha Jones in the cult series, was making a return in person to the cast of the second season of the saga’s new TV installment, And Just Like That…

According to Variety, one of the franchise’s most iconic characters, Samantha Jones, appears in the second season for just a moment, enough to bring her character back to life… and set the web on fire in the process!

In this scene, we get to witness the reconciliation between Samantha and Carrie, who have had a rather strained relationship since the first season!

Unfortunately for some, her appearance is not a sign of a continuation of her character…

Back in 2016, Kim Cattrall publicly announced that she had had enough of playing Samantha, as she didn’t feel that the script for a proposed third film did her character justice. What’s more, the star has been at loggerheads with Sarah Jessica Parker for some time now.

In fact, Cattrall reportedly didn’t talk to any of the original cast during the filming of her scene!

However, we’re convinced that seeing the actress who left her mark on more than one generation, for a short while, will be a balm to the hearts of many!
