QUOTE Aaron Carter escapes serious injury in fiery SUV accident
Thursday, January 6, 2005 Printable Version Email This Article (01-06) 17:43 PST POMPANO BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- Aaron Carter managed to escape serious injury Thursday when the teen pop singer's luxury sport utility vehicle erupted into flames in a bizarre accident, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. Carter, 17, was driving his 2004 Cadillac Escalade north to Orlando at about 12:30 a.m. when a mattress came loose from the cargo bed of a delivery truck in front of him, said his spokesman, Brad Zeifman. Carter drove over the mattress, which got stuck under the sport utility vehicle and caught fire, probably from the heat of the exhaust system. The singer pulled over and escaped the vehicle, then watched it explode in flames, Zeifman said. A friend traveling with him also escaped. Carter and his friend were treated at the scene. "Everything happened in such a whirlwind," Carter said in a statement released to The Associated Press. "It was like the mattress flew out of nowhere. You think you're invincible when you're behind the steering wheel of an SUV but you're not. I'm OK but you can imagine I'm still in shock." Carter, the younger brother of Backstreet Boy Nick Carter, has released several albums. He arrived in Orlando for a photo shoot for the cover of his next single, "Saturday Night," due out in March, Zeifman said. State troopers said the delivery truck never stopped. |

QUOTE(MrRant @ Jan 7 2005, 03:13 AM) He covered Saturday Night? Sadly, yes. And glad he wasn't seriously hurt. I dislike the kid as a singer but I don't want him dead or anything. Bitten by a goat on the nuts...sure! Killed? No way. |

Yeah, wishing death is a little extreme. Besides, if he did die you know the media would be riding his nuts proclaiming him as some pop prodigy or some other bullshit like that. He'd be more famous dead than he will be ever be alive.

The delivery truck should have turned around and finished what it started.

He drives a new Escalade at 17?
I'm sorry, the guy had it coming. That's the second worst story of a spoiled driver that I've heard this year, only beaten by that one woman on The Apprentice saying she got a Porsche at 16 from her parents and wrecked it in the same year. |

This is just a song called "saturday night" right, not a Bay City Rollers cover? I think that Ned's Atomic Dustbin put that baby to rest a few years ago. |

Wishing death on that kid is ok. Just say it out loud right now. "I wish death on Aaron Carter." It just brightens the day, doesn't it?

I'm surprise they did not try to blame this on Viva La Bam or Jackass. Big fucking deal, Aaron Carter went joy riding with a few friends and decided to emulate fellow public idiot icon Bam by running over a matress. Stupid Aaron should of made the SUV into a Monster Truck instead of a Low Rider....

I used to live in a town called Los Gatos, and right down the street from the high school was a Bentley and Rolls Royce Dealership, and down the street from THAT was a Ferrari dealership.
But even with all of that, if I see someone younger than me driving an Escalade...I feel sad. |
