Aaron Carter

Posted by Bossip Staff

Here is report from Rush and Malloy via NY Daily News on Jay-Z:

Now we hear Jay has been huddling with Reid’s rival, Warner Music Group head Lyor Cohen, to talk about starting his own label – tentatively called the Carter Music Group. (Jay’s real name is Aaron Carter.)

“The reason Jay left Def Jam was less about money than about freedom. He didn’t want to come to the office every day. And he had so many outside projects – his chain of 40/40 clubs and the hotel he’s building in Chelsea. But he wouldn’t mind having a small label for the talent he discovers. He might just put out three or four records a year. He’d let somebody else do the heavy lifting.”

Isn’t Aaron Carter the little Backstreet Boys’ brother? SMH.

    YOU DONT THINK ITS A COINCIDENCE WHEN LYOR LEFT, JAYZ WAS A SEAT FILLER? LYOR STILL PUULED THE STRINGS.

    LYOR USED JAYZ AS A PPET TO RUN DEF JAM AND WANER MUSIC GROUP. LYOR USED JAYZ TO BREAK UP ROCEFELLA WITH DAME DASH & KAREEM BIGGS.

    JAYZ IS A @FACE AZ KISSING *****. HE SOLD RAP OUT LIKE BOB JONSON SOLD B.E.T.

  20. Renne

    Uhh…Jay’s real name is Shawn Carter..NOT Aaron!!

  21. Keeping It Real

    Hey Dumb *****s at Bossip….His name Is Shawn Carter…Stupid idiots…


  22. @Realness—Please enlighten me. I just recently heard that Lyor Cohen is pulling those strings on Jay’s back. Chuck D somewhat aired them out w/o saying names.


  23. I AINT MAD AT YOU CAMEL, DO YA THANG!! LOL


  24. Why are some of you calling Bossip the dummy when they cleary state that the source is NY DAILY NEWS. Damn! Read dummys!

  25. Hmm

    The Backstreet boys little brother aint nowhere on Forbes list of the richest entertainers in America. The Reports at Bossip and The NY news are just *****ed cause Jay could buy and sell thier worthless @sses 10 times over.

  26. Ms. Lovely

    @Whoa

    I was waiting on someone else to point that out.

    AND

    Jay-Z just gets gayer and gayer to me, like every year he doesn’t get older, he gets more feminine.

  27. yes

    jay z bores the bones outta me man him and his chunky piece next bossip

  28. Hmm

    @Whoa,

    Bossip is the dummy’s for not checking thier own facts and reporting incorrect news from another source, they claim to be a site for “us” then why are they quoting “them” they should know better, it’s a case of Bossip playing Monkey see Monkey do…but I have long suspected that people with the intelligence of Monkey’s work for Bossip so they weree just being themselves.

  29. Bruhmann

    I guess Bossip really is run by white folks. Most of “us” know what Jay’s real name is.

  30. Ms. Lovely

    @Hmm

    Your post has me going hmm, you realize that if you quote a source (NY Daily News) you are not supposed to change the quote, even if it is wrong.

    And if you notice BOSSIP points out that Aaron Carter is Nick Carter’s little brother.

  31. Kompton's Kutie

    Aaron Carter?! Now u officially know white people are running bossip.com……


  32. @Ms. Lovely—Thank you

  33. Kompton's Kutie

    Bossip should have cleared the “name” situation up right under the NY News post, like they do other posts instead of saying something about the Backstreet Boys’ bro. Hell they O.G. regulate on all other posts…

  34. char--baby

    Thought it was Shawn! Did he just change his name?

  35. Justice

    Isn’t his first name Shawn?

  36. Scarlett

    Strange, I could’ve sworn his name was Sean Carter…

  37. Fierce Chili

    @Ms.Lovely

    @WHOA!

    Co-sign, geez people stop, take a moment, read

  38. Disappointed

    So the reports are true about you all being white… Aaron Carter!?!?!? WHOAAAA… WRONG & STRONG!

  39. Ms. Lovely

    ‘geez people stop, take a moment, read’

    Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha

    You just got to love them Chili


  40. ^^^^^I concur. Can’t argue with a fool.

  41. mr mr

    BOSSIP…ya’ll losing my respect REAL QUICK…where are the FACT CHECKERS b4 you post this foolishness…

    at least get the man’s name right before you bring the HATE

  42. Disappointed

    @ WHOA! Even if the quote is wrong… if they knew it was wrong they could make a disclaimer…

    Thats what happens when you talk about “people” you don’t “know” …. like an White Professor from England teaching a cl***** on African Culture… puhlezz

  43. Fierce Chili

    Bossip is making a joke about reckless reporting ny daily made.


  44. ^^^^Thank you. I see Ms. Lovely and Fierce Chili are the only ones w/ common sense in here.

  45. Fierce Chili

    @ Ms.Lovely

    @ Whoa

    lol, damn talk about getting rawled up this early in the morning and jumping to conclusions

    Ms.Lovely & Whoa…best day and great power to you both…alarm clock ranging’!


  46. ^^^^I’m telling you! LOL you enjoy the rest of your day as well.

  47. Hmm

    @ Ms Lovely,

    Just because they post another sources quote, does not mean they have to co-sign the quote, no one stated that they should change the quote. But they can have some integrity of their own when reporting others sources. If that had been posted by mediatakeout, Bossip would have been quick to shoot down the article by calling them (mediafakeout) like they always do.

    Also, Bossip is not pointing out that Aaron is Nick’s little brother, they are too busy make lame attempts at facetiousness. It was a pathetic attempt to be tongue in cheek and that goes back to the Monkey see Monkey do post.

  48. Fierce Chili

    @ Bossip…I heart you 90% of the time!

    As my grandpa would say you done good work ’round here!

    OBAMA ‘08

  49. Hmm

    @Ms Lovely,

    they are too busy make(ing)lame attempts at facetiousness. It was a pathetic attempt to be tongue in cheek and that goes back to the Monkey see Monkey do post.

    (Please excuse my typo in the last post, see it never hurts to make a “correction”)

  50. Ms. Lovely

    Okay, Okay

    We must agree to disagree.

    I looked at it like Bossip was pointing out the incorrect reporting not co-signing it.

    But whatever, I’m a lover not a fighter.

    Oh I can’t lie, a ***** loves to fight.


  51. lol@Ms. Lovely

  52. Hmm

    LOL @Ms Lovely, I hear ya!!

    Bossip claims they want to be the best blog, well, you can’t soar with the eagles when clucking around with the chickens.

  53. KayGee

    When you are going to report a story – at least have the facts straight…I hate when you “supposed” media pundits report inaccurate information about this celebrities, especially when the reports are full of “hateration.”

    Jay-Z’s name is Shawn Corey Carter and he was born on December 4, 1969.

  54. Ms. Lovely

    Kisses.


  55. *falls back on a pillow top mattress*

  56. bree

    Rush & Molloy/writer/editor did that on purpose..all the years they have been reporting on Jay-Z and now they are calling him Aaron?..that was another slap from yt saying ‘all these rappers are irrelevant and the same’

  57. Kompton's Kutie

    LOL! Ms. Lovely…

    Bossip is waaay better. I can say mediafakeout sukks! They would’ve said Jay-Z has been lying about his name or he has a twin, kuz u know they got issues over there.

  58. dayg715

    let this be a lesson, people. no matter how rich you get, your name is irrelevant in white people’s eyes. you’re just another ***** to them.

  59. Ms. Lovely

    Jay-z was born in 1969? I didn’t know he was that old. Nicca sit down. It’s offical. It is time to retire.

    Run the company, build an hotel.. but don’t you dare put out another album.

  60. Ebo

    Come on Bossip get it together…his name is Shawn Carter!

  61. Dolla Bill

    It’s been comfirmed….The people who work for Bossip are idiots! It’s Shawn Carter you *****heads! LOL SMH

  62. Dolla Bill

    Confirmed….(SP)

  63. Dat Dude

    Aaron carter? Wtf? S. Carter shoes. Shawn Carter. Buncha white folks must work here. Hell forget that, even white folks kno his real name.

  64. gimime a break

    lol@ dolla bill

    i was a bit confuse for a minuite

    aaron carter = back street boys

    Shawn Carter = Jay-Z

  65. bree

    ok clearly you people can not read..everything in the grey box was quoted from RUSH & MOLLOY NY DAILY NEWS..bossip wrote two lines..please read, it is so fundamental

  66. Curly Fries

    The man’s name is Shawn Camel Carter! Oh, and “Dat Dude” watch what you say about white people!

  67. QG&#@

    @ Ms. Lovely,

    You said Jay is looking gay but aint you a lesbian?

  68. Just Sit And Be Pretty

    Reading comprehension is soooooo fundamental!! *SMH and snickering*

  69. blu majic

    bossip is a piece of *****!! bad thing is it’s the only bootleg gossip site i can access from work!! unlucky me….gotta read the ignorant example of journalism!!

  70. Notahater

    @Ms. Lovely

    Just because he was born in 1969 does not mean that he no longer has anything of merit to add to the world.

    I say – do your thing Jay, some of us are still riding with you…..

  71. Kompton's Kutie

    ….Im sleep.

  72. MotorCityGal

    BOSSIP, YOU ARE THE MOST UNRELIABLE SOURCE OF NEWS….HIS NAME IS SHAWN CARTER YOU STUPID ***** IDIOTS. GET ALL YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT BEFORE YOU POST YOUR INFORMATION!!!!!

  73. Dolla Bill

    I don’t care if they got their story via NY Daily News…..Bossip is still too dumb and lazy to fix it!

  74. Hmm

    @MotorCityGal,

    Bossip doesn’t care about facts; they are concerned about advertising dollars. Therefore, incorrect facts (borderline slander) adds to their advertising dollars so they can run other sites, including Japanese sites…It’s Capitalism at it’s best (or worst, depending on if you have any integrity…)

  75. Q

    Jay is dat *****. Say what you want but that ***** got 500 mill in da bank and sexy ***** Beyonce on his arm so he don’t give a ***** about no damn haters. He probably on his million dollar vacay wit Bey somewhere.

  76. Ms. Lovely

    @ QG&#@

    No sweetie I’m not a lesbian I just like to look.

    Ain’t nothing like *****ies in your face.

  77. Kompton's Kutie

  88. Crazy

    Judging by the fact that the poster indicated Jay Z’s name is Aaron is a clear cut clue that this site is run by WHITE FOLKS…..

  89. Ms. Lovely

  96. Ms. Lovely

    @ WHOA

    Girl, lets keep each other strong. Going to lunch. See you later.

  97. Kay

    LOL.. Aaron Carter though? Seriously? Don’t people make their journalist proof read and investigate seriously? As many stories that are done on Jay-z everyone should know his damn name is Shawn Corey Carter.. 4real 4real.. Oh well… Good for him either way..

  98. E

    SMH at the LACK of reading comprehension skills displayed in the comments. Please turn off your PC’s or laptops and open a damn book. Non-readin’ *****’s lol.

  99. Almighty Mouth

    I known they say all brothers look alike… but a Black man and a White boy. Come on Bossip, when I saw this headline I thought I was on Mediatakeout… the brother’s name is Shawn Carter (Aaron’s that Blonde Hair Blue-Eyed no talent).

  100. Phototab

    His real name is Shawn Corey Carter!!!!!

  101. Big T

    his name is shawn corey carter u idiots not aaron carter whoever put that was retarted

  102. HOTSTUFF

    What did he think his job description would be??? Now all he did was taint his relationship and show the world that he’s an unloyal ***** and now he’s getting *****ed…I mean Chris Brown dropped the same day as this dude and Jay still ain’t reach platinum status… Rihanna’s came out how long ago and she reached it before him???? You’re finished Jay the only thing keeping your relevant is radio stations in NY and Beyonce and her boat is about to sink as well bruh…

  103. The Congratulater

    His name is Shawn Carter, not no Aaron!


  104. haha wow…. cant believe they called him aaron carter

  105. lexy

    who in the fu** is Aaron Carter??? Aint that that little white boy?

  106. Jessica

    I’m not suprised the article messed up his name YT could careless about a Jay-Z yea he’s paid but when it comes to white Hollywood he’s gets no respect. Black people and his fans are the only ones praising him. Oprah, Denzel, Angela B*****ett hell even Star Jones get more respect from YT but since he’s a rapper they will never take him seriously.

  107. SpearChucker

    you’re all wrong his name is Jimmy Carter


  108. I can never hate on this ***** Jay! I wonder why…maybe it is because he brought little Miss Sunshine Rihanna to me…

    But like his chick he needs to sit. I guess thats it.

  109. CANDI GOT GUSHY

    bwahhhh at Bossip

  110. candydrop

    sean carter is a very savvy business man and rapper. he is raining on every rapper and hip hop mogul in the game making 83 million.all yall haters wish yall could be him for a day. he could care less if his cd is a hit..he does rapping for fun..unlike most rappers, he owns a hell of alot of stuff..

  111. Monotheistic Proof

    Who’s the amateur running the projector. Just because it’s a gossip site does not mean you don’t have to fact check. Especially when it supposed to be the whole key to the joke. Bossip please fire this clown!!! We deserve better.

  112. jai.E

    lmfao. :D

  113. I cant say...

    Aint his name “Clarence Carter, Clarence Carter, Clarence Carter, Clarence Carter- I BE STROKIN…that’s what I be doing. I BE STROKING!!! I strokes IT to da east and I strokes it to da west and I strokes it to the woman that I love the BEST!!!” {no homo}

  114. Lik_Wid_Cherry

    Haha..this ***** middle name is Corey.

  115. :)

    Bossip.. Yaw need to fire WHOEVER posted this load of CRAP you call news.. Aaron Carter… AARON CARTER? I am convinced there are YT’s behind this corny website.

  116. Swag

    Real Talk, Jay never deserved the Job as President and CEO of Def Jam. He was NOT qualified to run a label. And for this dumb ***** fool to think that he could properly run a company and not be there everyday is obvious of is lack of skills.Jay is an artist not an executive.

    Def Jam need to get they ***** togetha, fo real. I hope they hire Andre Harell for the job. Cause dude been in the game for alot of years and knows a thing or two about building careers and running a label.That kind of leadership is what would turn that company around. Plus there are like no other well known qualified canidates for the job.

    Jay is lazy and too selfish and into his own thang to be in charge of a label. Being a BOSS is a responsibility. You can’t put your self ahead of other people that depend on your leadership for their way of life. Jay never took the job serious enough and that is partly why his contract wasn’t renewed. They better off without him.

  117. tana

    I knew this site was a joke, you can’t even get the man’s name right. SMFH at lame ***** bossip!!!!!!!!!!!!

  118. Dumb *****es

    I think Bossip posted his name wrong on purpose. Everyone knows his real name. This was a cheap ploy to boost the number of comments, knowing dumb as*es would be rushing to make the “correction”.

  119. MidwestHoney

    um… aint his real name shawn carter?

  120. STORM

    I thought I was the only one who noticed the incorrect info: Shawn Carter…not sure about the Corey part…but Aaron Carter is def a white boy and not the Jigga Man!

  121. ashkat

    You ppl are so stupid… bossip was making fun of the reporters who wrote that article… all the stuff in the gray box? Where it said jays name was AARON Carter? BOSSIP DIDNT WRITE THAT *****… everyone knows that Jays name is Shawn Carter, thats why its so funny. SMH

  122. Maryland Girl

    Sad….Bossip is trying to make the point that NY Daily News made a mistake. Hooked on Phonics or slow down when you’re reading.


  123. Look at the two HUGE rocks on Jay-z’s finger! Anyway his pants looks dirty…

  124. BOSSIP IS RAN BY WHITE PEOPLE

    Aaron? — He don’t even look like an Aaron, and even if he did his birth certificate states ‘Shawn’- It’s some big ***** dodos running this website.

  125. Curly Fries

    Damn, I can’t believe ppl are still blaming Bossip, when Bossip was merely pointing this article out from the New York Daily News.

    Please read the article again.


  126. @ashkat (Possibly Bossip Staff Writer)

    Good catch!!! But this is still not a knock against Bossip Readers. I think the problem has more to do with how it was written and subsequently how it reads.

    The bold in this story looks like Bossip inserted the information on his name. Not once does the plain text say Aaron Carter. The whole post never *****erts that Bossip knows this isn’t his real name.

    If anything if seems to agree with Rush and Malloy or add the false name as it’s own fact. Bossip is always trying to poke Jabs a Jay Z so it reads as if their dissing his name being the same as the Jr Backstreet boy ( Aaron) and not highlighting the fact it is a completely incorrect name.

    Fixes:

    -Title it Sean Carter or S. Carter.

    -Highlight the caption verses the report an state its source.

    -End with a definitive punch line that clearly delivers the intent and identifies the source.

    In other words give us a clear indication that you are not along for the ride.

    I ask why didn’t they clearly diss the media source as they do with media take (fake) out.

    This is a simple matter of not clearly stating ones ideas or intent. Bossip makes too many mistakes to be this vague. Someone is obviously still hoping for a job with the NY times or they would of clearly stated the mistake.

    We are used to mistakes from Bossip and despite the intent one was still made here. Good catch but hardly a knock on the readers intelligence levels.

    @MarylandGirl

    Great cosign but I find it a bit ironic that you are the comment riight after ashkat. Because of how this reads, I don’t think you would have caught this otherwise. Not a knock against your ability. Just a knock against your need to cosign superiority.

    IMAO Mono Defender of truth

  127. Suzy

    Lmao at Matty Mocha his name actually is Sean Carter.


  128. too bad that Jay’s Real name is Shawn Corey Carter.

    you could have Wikipedia’d that.

    SMH!!!

  129. TAY

    LMAO… NOW we know its true what they say on the other sites that BOSSIP is made by whitey because because aint no way a BLACK site doesnt know his name is Shawn Corey!!! LMAO SMH SMH SMH

  130. Lori E.

  131. spain
