Star sparks concern with alarming photo
Nick Carter's slimmed-down appearance has sparked concern among fans who are worried about his wellbeing.
On Wednesday, the singer shared a relaxing selfie via Instagram ahead of practice for the Backstreet Boys' Las Vegas residency at the Sphere.
'Soaking up some Vegas heat before today's rehearsals,' Carter, 45, captioned the photo.
Carter appeared in good spirits, wearing a grey hat and a dark red Ford T-shirt.
Nick Carter's latest selfie, promoting the Backstreet Boys' upcoming residency in Las Vegas, has sparked fan concern.
Fans couldn't help but voice their concerns about his thin frame in the comments section, however, with one writing, 'Sorry to say, but you look a bit too thin to me! … I hope you're okay, @nickcarter! Love you so much!'
'He looks very unhealthy, hope he is okay!' another added, as a third chimed in, 'I'm a [bit] nervous.'
'Maybe he took some Ozempic,' a fourth wrote, to which another snapped back, 'Maybe you should mind your business.'
In another photo shared on Thursday with his daughter, Carter also appeared slimmer.
Meanwhile, others rushed to Carter's defence, urging critics not to 'comment on other people's bodies.'
'Hey ladies … just like we don't want men commenting on our weight … men don't need to hear your opinions either,' one supporter wrote.
'[I] think it's more out of concern … hope he's doing fine mentally and physically,' a second added.
A source, meanwhile, told Page Six that Carter is 'not on Ozempic.'
Fans immediately commented on the pop star's appearance as he looked like a shadow of his former self. Picture:According to the insider, the pop icon and his bandmates have been rehearsing for their Vegas residency 'for the past two months now' and 'working out non-stop.'
'It's not going to be an easy show,' the source continued, adding that Carter's social media proves that he has slowly slimmed down over the past few months.
'It didn't happen overnight,' they said.
Reps for Carter did not immediately respond to Page Six's request for comment.
The Backstreet Boys — which also consists of Brian Littrell, AJ McLean, Kevin Richardson and Howie Dorough — will begin their Into The Millennium residency at the Sphere starting July 11.

Nick's return to the stage comes after the tragic deaths of three of his siblings, Leslie Carter, Aaron Carter and Bobbie Jean Carter, who passed away in 2012, 2022 and 2023, respectively.
In November 2023, the I Want It That Way singer admitted he was still grieving his late brother, telling E! News that it 'hurts' not to have made amends before he passed.
He also addressed Bobbie Jean's death in January 2024, writing via Instagram that 'it may take a lifetime to fully process the loss [his] family has endured over the years.'
Nick was one of five siblings. The family is also survived by Aaron's twin sister, Angel.

'Karl's got guns!': Social media goes wild for Karl Stefanovic's muscular arms as Today star, 50, shares stunning workout video after weight loss
Karl Stefanovic has showed off his impressively ripped physique in a hilarious new video at the gym following a major body transformation. The Today host, 50, has been open about his weight loss journey after once tipping the scales at 105kg back in 2020. Stefanovic later told The Kyle and Jackie O Show that unflattering paparazzi photos taken at his heaviest prompted some stern advice from his billionaire pal James Packer. "James Packer sends me a note that says: 'mate, you need to get your a**e to the gym'," Stefanovic said. On Friday, Stefanovic shared a comedic video to Instagram which showed him working out with friend Peter Oreb while his personal trainer Mark Glanville danced in the background. The veteran Channel 9 star and father of four performed a series of gruelling push-up exercises in the clip as his biceps noticeably rippled beneath a tight orange tank top. 'There's something not quite right about my trainer,' Stefanovic captioned the video, which featured the song 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody' by Whitney Houston. Fans of the Today host flooded the comment section to praise his new rock hard physique. 'Brah when did Karlos get muscles,' one fan wrote. 'Karl got guns,' another supporter said. 'You got a licence for those firearms?!' 'Whatever he's doing it's working,' another fan agreed. Meanwhile, Stefanovic's sister-in-law Jade Yarbrough raised her concerns that Stefanovic was working out in the gym shoe-less. 'More concerned about you not wearing shoes in the gym again,' she wrote. The video was quickly picked up by Today producers, who used the video of their star presenter's workout for a segment about 'Dad Bods'. Stefanovic's body transformation comes months after reports the Today star is currently vying to replace Rodger Corser as the host of top-rating gameshow The Floor. The quiz show, which sees contestants challenge each other in head-to-head trivia duels, has proven ratings gold for Nine in the 7.30pm time slot ever since it premiered in April.
