Nick Carter of Backstreet Boys faces lawsuit alleging sexual assault, transmission of STD in 2005
Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter has been accused of sexual assault and knowingly transmitting sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) in a lawsuit filed by a woman who alleges the incidents occurred in 2005, when she was 19 years old.
According to People, the woman claimed she had a consensual relationship with Carter that turned non-consensual. The lawsuit alleges that during a visit to Carter’s apartment to watch a movie, the singer ‘insisted on having sex’. When the complainant refused and asked him to use protection, Carter allegedly ignored her objections, assured her he was "clean of STDs," and forced himself on her without a condom.
The woman claimed that Carter assaulted her multiple times during the encounter, and that she did not speak out at the time out of fear of not being believed. She stated that she returned to meet Carter a few days later after he apologised, but he allegedly assaulted her again.
In her complaint, the woman said Carter transmitted multiple STDs, including human papillomavirus (HPV), which later led to her diagnosis of Stage 2 cervical cancer.
The lawsuit outlines that she underwent extensive treatment and procedures, resulting in physical, emotional, and financial hardship. This is the fourth sexual assault complaint against Carter, who has denied the allegations.

Tehran/Doha: Iran’s President Massoud Pezeshkian has warned that attacks on the country’s energy infrastructure could lead to “uncontrollable consequences” affecting the entire world.
In a post on X, Pezeshkian said he “strongly condemns” the strikes that targeted the South Pars gasfield earlier in the day.
“Such aggressive actions will not achieve anything for the American Zionist enemy and their supporters. Rather, they will complicate the situation and could lead to uncontrollable consequences that will affect the entire world,” he said.
Meanwhile, Qatar’s Ministry of Interior has urged residents to remain indoors due to what it described as an elevated security threat.
Authorities have not provided further details, but the advisory comes amid growing concerns over the safety of energy infrastructure and civilian areas in the region.
