Aaron Carter, who broke off his engagement to former Playboy Playmate Kari Ann Peniche just a week after he proposed onstage in Las Vegas, says he’s in love.
Carter, who turned 19 on Dec. 7, is dating 18-year-old singer Kaci Brown. They hit it off last week in Miami when he celebrated his birthday with twin sister, Angel, the pop singer’s spokeswoman, Juliette Harris, told The Associated Press on Monday.
“Now I’m in a great relationship. I’ve only known her for, like, seven days, but I have a connection with her that’s like nothing else I’ve ever experienced,” Carter tells People magazine in a story posted Monday on its Web site. “It’s really amazing.”
Asked what Brown, a friend of Angel’s, gave him for his birthday, Carter said: “She got me love.”
Carter, star of the E! Entertainment reality show “House of Carters” with his siblings, is working on a new album, Harris said.
He proposed to Peniche, an ex-girlfriend of his 26-year-old brother, Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter, in September. Peniche is also a former Miss Teen USA.
Brown opened for the Backstreet Boys during their 2005 summer tour, People reported.
