One time American pop teen star Aaron Carter has checked into rehab in California to treat “emotional and spiritual issues” according to E! Online.

The website quotes Carter’s manager as saying the rehab stint is part of his client’s efforts to resurrect his pop career which has faltered somewhat in recent years. Says manager Johnny Wright: “Several months ago Aaron came to me to help him return to music and to restart his career. He has been in Orlando working on a new album and perfecting his live show and his physical body”.

He continues: “Aaron, understanding the challenges and hard work it would take to get himself back to the top, requested to take some time before we started to heal some emotional and spiritual issues he was dealing with. Therefore, he has chosen to enter a facility where he feels he will get the guidance and cleansing he needs that will help him on the music journey he’s about to take. He asks that everyone keep him in their prayers and that they respect his privacy at this time”.

Attempted career revival and entering rehab at 23, there’s something for Justin Bieber to aim for.

Carter himself indicated he was experiencing ups and downs earlier this month when he tweeted: “Life Has It’s ups & Downs, You Can Only Live & Learn. Never Lose Faith!! & Always Believe In Yourself! As I Am learning To Do Every day”. I wonder if there’s someone in rehab who could sort out his excessive use of capital letters?
