Transcript from Q100 DJ: We're supposed to be hanging with Nick Carter at US Play today and were waiting for him to call in any second now.. oh that its.. Hello? Nick: Dylan? DJ: Hey. Nick: It's Nick. DJ: Hey Nick. How are you man? Nick: I'm ok. DJ: I know things have been a little tough for you recently. There's been some crazy rumors out there about what's going on with you and your family. And you know it's really none of our business, but you have a lot of fans who really care about you and you know wanna make sure everything is ok. You know were sad you're not here with us tonight in Atlanta. Nick: Yeah, well just to set it straight. I mean my pops is kind of sick right now and uh... uh I'm down here taking care of him. He was in the hospital for two days. Uh he just had some colon problems and we don't know what it is yet. Ah we're… we're waiting' it out... Umm seeing what it's all about. But you know for the time being uh... I'm making sure his stubborn butt, you know, gets taken care of cuz he is really stubborn. DJ: You guys have a pretty tight family. And I couldn't expect you to be anywhere different. I mean we obviously had this big event planned with you tonight, but we wouldn't want you to be here if we knew that something was going wrong. Nick: Yeah, you know I'm so sorry I couldn't be there, but uh you know… cuz I've been dying to get back to you know get back to Atlanta forever. DJ: It's been a long time since you've been to the ATL. Nick: Yeah I know I know it's been awhile. We came with B&B right? DJ: Right, right. Um…unless you've been coming and hiding in Brian's basement. Nick: (laugh) Yeah. DJ: We wouldn't know. Sleeping in the guestroom or something we haven't heard about that though. Nick: Nah, I haven't slept in the town yet. DJ: Well, obviously we're all thinking about you man. Congratulations first and foremost for the new CD. I got to hear a couple of tracks and... blown away, totally blown away. Nick: Are you for real? DJ: Totally different. Nick: Yeah man it's, I mean, I just wanted to, I mean that's just how I am, Ya know I'm different I like to experiment and try new things ya know. Do something, ya know, that's not really expected.. Um That's the kind of personality I have. DJ: And obviously this whole thing personally is gonna shake out for you and I know that we're gonna get you back here in ATL real as soon as we can. That's cool but what kind of plans do you have for next year and the CD are there any touring plans? Nick: Well right now I'm, ya know, I'm trying to see how it goes with everything. DJ: Do you feel any competition with Justin Timberlake like and his solo thing and cuz... Nick: Nah man, not at all. I guess we're both kinda in our own little categories, ya know. DJ: It just seems that every time you're scheduled to be on TRL, like he calls in or something. I don't know... It's just, it's weird ya know? Nick: I think, ya know. I think honestly, uh I hope he's very successful. That's my personal opinion. I mean really, um, I'm in a... I'm in a really good point in my life and in my head and ya know I just, um, I don't diss nobody. I don't dog nobody and I support anybody who's... This is a hard business to be in. So, we kinda talked together just sorta, I dunno even know when this was. It was a couple of months ago or something like that. But he was like "Yo Nick ya know" we were like backstage at the Latin Grammys and uh he like "Nick ya know, I just wanna let you know man that that's cool that you're doing what you're doing." Because uh ya know when I was.. cuz we knew each other when we were younger.. like we were on the same management and we'd tour all the time together... cuz that's all I'd listen to "and whatever you were listening to was rock music and really being into that and it's just that.. that I'm glad you did that". And I'm like, "Yeah I'm glad you did what you did to because... because I remember that's all you would listen to is in something... was R&B stuff ya know." So it's kinda like, ya know, silently supporting each other in a way. And it's... it's a really cool situation. DJ: I can imagine being on the road as much as you have recently you wouldn't have time for a girlfriend or anything like that. Nick :Well, and I won't lie ya know, I wish I had a girlfriend. But, I am... DJ: No, that's okay. I know a lot of people who are listening right now are very happy to hear that. Nick: Yeah I mean that, I wish I did. But I just can't, uh, I dunno. I'm just so busy, and it's hard to trust people and you wonder what people girls are out for and stuff ya know. But hey, somebody, there's somebody out there, there's the one, who ya know. Will give me the chance and stuff. DJ: Like a lot of the rag magazines like The Star and National Enquirer and stuff ya know they seem to wanna link you with different people. Is that ever weird when you get linked with somebody and you're just like, "I cant' believe they're saying I'm dating Britney" like that. Nick: I knew that question would come up, um, but... DJ: It's funny though isn't it or? Nick: Yeah. It's definitely.. I mean all I can say is that I guess they try to find something to talk about (laughs). I'm serious. I don't even know her. Like I've met her twice in my whole entire life. DJ: Really? Nick: Yeah man, and I'm just like, I mean she's cool girl and all but I don't know her. DJ: So wait a minute, I've met Britney Spears more times than Nick Carter? Nick: Probably, yeah. DJ: That's amazing, Thanks to Kayla. |
