Hitkrant - Is That Really True, Nick?

Imagine: you’re as popular as Nick Carter. It’s a dead giveaway there are many rumors circulating about you. We asked him about some of them!
Nick always wears briefs instead of boxers.
That’s not true. I wear whatever I find in my closet. I don’t care what’s on my butt as long as it fits and is clean.
Nick collects beanie babies
That WAS true, but I quit a while ago. There are certain hobbies that you can’t maintain after a certain age. I’m not collecting anything now, except maybe for CDs and clothes.
Nick is afraid of the dark.
Uhm…a little. I would lie if I said it isn’t true. But I hate the night. Other people may get romantic ideas about the nighttime, but I don’t. I used to check under my bed at least 3 times a night because I was scared Gremlins would attack me at night. That’s another thing I’ve grown too old for haha...
No matter how scared he is of aliens…Nick would love to have a part in a science fiction movie.
Yes, that’s true. In fact, I would WANT to play an alien. I love science fiction en action movies. So if I’d ever get the chance to play in one I would say yes immediately. If I can act? Sure, why not?
Nick is crazy about Nintendo games.
Yep! Always has been, always will be. I swear, Nintendo is the best! The new FIFA game is awesome. Wow, it rocks. Unfortunately I don’t have enough time to play Nintendo.
Nick has never really been in love.
That’s true as well. No, never. Is that so hard to believe? I don’t think so myself. I just never really let myself go, that’s my explanation. I’m only 22 so lots could happen still.
Nick got his first kiss at age 7.
I can’t remember. But yeah that could be true. I think I must have been about 7 or 8, yeah. It probably wasn’t like a deep kiss, just a little kiss.
Nick is a shy guy when talking to a girl he likes.
Yes. I’m not one of those slick womanizers that always know how to start a conversation. I always feel uncomfortable and think the girl has all kinds of prejudices against me and it makes me nervous so I let her do the talking. I prefer it when girls come up to me and say hi or whatever.
Nick once dated 2 girls at the same time.
No, that’s not true. Not guilty your honor!
In Junior High, Nick got picked on for looking like a girl.
Yeah, that’s true. Yet another fact. Although I didn’t look like a girl, but my hair was longer than that of the other boys and I was blonde. I guess they didn’t think that was cool.
Nick is a great cartoonist.
That’s true as well. I’m not THAT good. I need to take my time, but if I do, I can draw really well.
Nick has been playing the drums since he was 14-years-old.
Yep! Altough I’ll always be a better singer than a drummer.
Nick doesn’t smoke.
True again. I tried it before, but I don’t like it much.
Nick thinks beer is disgusting.
Uhhmmm…………yes!
Nick considers himself to be role model for others.
No, definitely not. I couldn’t say that about myself. I’m just a normal guy that tries to be real and natural. And I make just as many mistakes as the next guy, so not much of a role model huh?
Nick doesn’t like it when people tell him he looks like Leonardo DiCaprio.
No, that’s not true. I honestly don’t care what people say as long as they don’t tell me I still look like a girl!
In clubs and on stage it’s clear…Nick is a horrible dancer.
I won’t pretend to be a great dancer, but I CAN dance. I don’t hate it. I need to dance on stage, but it’s just entertainment.
Nick once stole a bible from a hotel.
Yeah, that’s true… well, I didn’t exactly steal it… I just borrowed it and forgot to took it back.
Nick gets mad when things don’t work out the way he planned.
I’m a perfectionist, but if something goes wrong I get over it. I never get like MAD-mad about it.
Thanks to Anne.
