  • Obituary

    LESLIE CARTER, 25, ASPIRING SINGER Leslie Carter, sister of the Backstreet Boys' Nick Carter and Aaron Carter, died Tuesday in upstate New York of drug overdose. She was 25. An autopsy yesterday morning by the Chautauqua County coroner's office found "no visible signs of trauma," coroner Richard Mackowiak told E! News. "We are awaiting a toxicology report to determine a cause of death." The body had been released to the family, he added. A toxicology report typically takes several weeks. "Our family is grieving right now and it's a private matter. We are deeply saddened by the loss of our beloved sister, daughter, and granddaughter Leslie Carter. We request the utmost privacy during this difficult time," the family said in a statement. Leslie Carter was born in Tampa, Florida, one of six children of Jane and Bob Carter. She began singing at age 5, and eventually took up piano, clarinet and guitar. DreamWorks Records signed her in 1999, but then shelved her debut album, "Like Wow!" which had been planned for an April 2001 release. The title track, however, appeared on the soundtrack of "Shrek" (20010 and reached Number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100. She released two additional singles. She went on to perform on a club tour in the mid-wooos and appeared in E's 2006 reality TV show "House of Carters." Carter married Mike Ashton in 2008 and moved to Toronto. The two have a 10-month-old daughter, Alyssa Jane. - Newsday Thursday, February 2, 2012 on page A 48.
