Aaron Carter checks into rehab after admitting people say he looks like ‘he’s dying’

I Want Candy singer finally admits after testing positive for meth and cocaine that he needs help after comments from his mates about his appearance.

FORMER child pop star Aaron Carter has checked himself into rehab after months of refusing to do so - after being told by pals he "looks like he's dying".

The tattooed I Want Candy hitmaker is working to "improve his health" following a rocky few months including an arrest for driving under the influence of drugs.

Now Aaron, who also slammed his more famous singer Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys after he sent support, has admitted that help is necessary.

The "concerned" music idol previously explained: "I'm concerned about my overall health because people tell me I look like I have AIDs or I look like I have cancer or I look like I'm dying."

A rep for Aaron said in a statement: "Aaron has decided to enter a facility to improve his health and work on his overall wellness.

"He is going to do this privately and focus all his attention on being the best person and performer possible.

"He is grateful for the support and love from his fans and looks forward to coming back stronger than ever before."

Recently Aaron tested positive for cocaine and meth on a US TV show called The Doctors.

The show doc Travis Stork told him: "What scares me about that drug panel is that your sister [Leslie] perished from a drug overdose.
"You have a mixture of benzodiazepines with opiates, which is how many people accidentally can die. These medications - and I'm speaking now purely from the doctor's perspective - can be very, very scary."
