Emotions rose as Aaron entered the stage singing his hit song, “I Want Candy,” bringing back memories of the 1990s when it all started. 

Apart from his hits “Crazy Little Party Girl,” “I'm All About You,” “I'm Gonna Miss You Forever," and "Crush On You," Aaron also performed his songs from his latest album, “LOVE,” including “Sooner or Later.”

Aaron’s last visit in the country was in 2002 when he was only 12 years old, when he performed at the Araneta Coliseum.

Now 30 years old, the younger brother of Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter is busy with a music career in the United States and the United Kingdom.

Due to the Southern California wildfire, he could not make it on time in Manila, so he cancelled his scheduled press conference on Saturday after getting in stuck in traffic for five hours. He caught the next flight to Manila and arrived on Saturday night, a day before his concert.
