Backstreet Boys star Aaron Carter reveals he wants to PUNCH Wade Robson and James Safechuck for telling the world his ‘pal’ Michael Jackson abused them
BACKSTREET boys star Aaron Carter has said he would "punch" the Leaving Neverland accusers.
The 31-year-old singer told he believes Wade Robson and James Safechuck are financially motivated in their accusations made in the bombshell documentary.
The Sooner or Later singer was specifically referring to Robson after a tweet purporting to be from him implicated Carter had known about what was going on.
Robson's lawyer says this tweet was from a fake account and that his client has been targeted by hackers since the release of Leaving Neverland.
But Carter hit back, tweeting: "He's trying to tie my name into this s***
"I'm not that guy. I'm not the one.
"You lucky I got something to lose now, because I would punch you in your face — I would.
"And then maybe I'd ask you, 'Are you telling the truth?' But I'd punch you in your face first."
You lucky I got something to lose now, because I would punch you in your face - I would
Aaron Carter
Carter also questioned the timing of the pair's allegations, adding that both men had testified on Jackson's behalf in the past.
He said: "You're a grown man, and when Michael Jackson was alive, you are backing him, you are up his a**, you are kissing his a**, you are there to testify for him under oath, and then when he dies, you decide that's a good time to come out?
"No, what you are doing is, you're actually stomping on an icon and a legend's grave — you're stomping his grave."
Carter added that Robson and Safechuck should have spoken out during Jackson's 2005 molestation trial.
He added that his own experiences with the singer when he was around 15 years old supported his view that Jackson hadn't sexually abused his accusers.
Carter said: "I hung out with Michael Jackson, I stayed at his house, I stayed in his bedroom... It's hard for me to understand — how am I supposed to understand that when my own personal experience with him was gentle and beautiful and loving and embracing."
DOUBTING THE ACCUSERS
News of Carter's intervention comes after some of Jackson's superfans cited a video of Robson and Safechuck speaking at the Sundance Festival as evidence of their dishonesty.
As the two-part documentary revealed disturbing allegation after disturbing allegation, there are still those who cling to the belief that Jackson was innocent, and look for evidence anywhere of their dishonesty.
The pair were taking questions as part of a stand up at the Sundance Festival when the footage was shot.
The questioner asks: "About your shared family experiences - how has it affected your parents and your siblings and your wives and so forth?
"Have they seen any part of the project, or what is your relationship like with them now, as a result of this thing? After they finally find out your truths."
VISIBLE SMILES
The pair make eye contact, and both visibly smile.
While many would see it as a moment of shared embarrassment met with humour, or a shared joke perhaps, Jacko diehards seem determined to see it as a slip of the mask, which exposes the pair as liars.
Safechuck responds that his mother was looking for forgiveness after the film, but he wasn't able to fully give it to her.
While he speaks, Robson covers his mouth and then answers his family had seen the film individually, and that he was fearful of his mother seeing it.
He also tears up as he talks about how the family will move forward.
HIDDEN TELLS?
After the video of the Q and A was posted on YouTube, one commenter said: "WHO reacts to a serious question like that? they're laughing and smiling. wasn't this suppose to be heartbreaking and sad? They're bad actors."
Another commented: "100 per cent lying and they know it!"
