Backstreet Sister Signs Deal We at Spin.com don't know much but we do know talent... and that Carter family's got it... in spades! First big brother Nick made pop history with his fellow Backstreet Boys. Then little brother Aaron followed him into teen idol-land. Now comes word that kid sister Leslie Carter has inked a deal with Dreamworks Records. Carter is currently putting the finishing touches on her as-yet-untitled debut in teen-idol Mecca, Orlando, Florida with LFO producers Brad Young and Dow Brain. The disc will also feature new material penned by award winner songwriter Diane Warren. "This is something I want for myself," Carter said in a statement, "I want to be an entertainer. I want to do it all- singing, dancing, acting. It's all a part of me." And here's a fun fact: did you know that the Carters have seven dogs, five cats, five birds, and an iguana... and all of them are TALENTED! (In fact, rumor has it, the iguana just signed with Dischord records, and will be releasing his reasonably priced debut this fall. - Ed.) News by Marc Spitz (MSpitz@spinmag.com) Comment on this item.
