Aaron CarterтАЩs Team Defends Hilary Duff On тАШObscenely DisrespectfulтАЩ New Memoir, Slams тАШUnauthorizedтАЩ Content
By
Aaron CarterтАЩs management team has entered the chat on the late rapperтАЩs new memoir that is set to be released Nov. 15, just 10 days after his death.
Reps for Carter, who passed away last Saturday, are supporting Hilary Duff after she blasted the upcoming┬аautobiography that claims the former teen pop star took DuffтАЩs virginity at age 13.
тАЬWe as AaronтАЩs management would like to thank Hilary Duff for her statement regarding the book that is set to be released,тАЭ┬аTaylor Helgeson, of Big Umbrella Management, said Thursday via a statement to The Post.
тАЬIn the few short days following our dear friendтАЩs passing we have been trying to grieve and process while simultaneously having to deal with obscenely disrespectful and unauthorized releases, including an album titled Blacklisted, a single titled тАШLately,тАЩ and now a book.

тАЬThis is a time for mourning and reflection not heartless money grabs and attention seeking. We would ask the parties responsible to remove the aforementioned content and that no further content be released without approval from his family, friends, and associates,тАЭ the statement concluded.
Prior to CarterтАЩs passing, the тАЬSooner or LaterтАЭ singer had been┬аallegedly working on the unfinished autobiography, Aaron Carter: An Incomplete Story of an Incomplete Life for three years with author, Andy Symonds. In the book, Carter reportedly claims he and Duff, whom he dated from approximately 2000 to 2003, lost their virginities to each other at a Los Angeles hotel on what he supposes was DuffтАЩs 13th birthday.

Duff has slammed the publishers of the memoir, calling it тАЬdisgustingтАЭ in a statement to ET.
тАЬItтАЩs really sad that within a week of AaronтАЩs death, thereтАЩs a publisher that seems to be recklessly pushing a book out to capitalize on this tragedy without taking appropriate time or care to fact check the validity of his work,тАЭ said Duff.
тАЬTo water down AaronтАЩs life story to what seems to be unverified click-bait for profit is disgusting. In no way do I condone shedding any light on what is so obviously an uninformed, heartless, money grab.тАЭ
Last week, Duff shared a heartfelt tribute to Carter after news broke of his shocking death.┬атАЬYou had a charm that was absolutely effervescentтАж boy did my teenage self love you deeply,тАЭ she wrote.
Aside from CarterтАЩs teenage romance with Duff, his memoir will also address his drug use and relationship with Michael Jackson, including an alleged incident that┬аoccurred in 2003 at JacksonтАЩs Neverland Ranch.
