In a statement, Carter's manager Johnny Wright tells Entertainment Tonight: "It is unfortunate that while Aaron was a minor, his finances were grossly mismanaged by his previous team which has lead to the current situation of which he was unaware of until today. Aaron is working with a new team to take appropriate actions towards speedy resolution of the matter and looks forward to putting this behind him and moving forward with the next stage of his music career."

    The sad part is he isn't to blame because he was still a minor in 2003 and who when they are 15/17/18 years old understands how much tax needs to be given/paid and so on. He had a tough up bringing having parents who took his money and were drug/alcohol/physical abusers. Even his siblings are a waste of space. I hope he gets this solved quick, because this isn't his fault and for some celebs its not. They hire people (accountants) who don't do their jobs correctly. It can happen to anyone, not just celebs.

    I don't understand why people who make millions of dollars can't/won't pay their taxes. Give me that money and the first stop I make is to the IRS. These people need to stop blaming others for their troubles. Take some personal responsibility.
