MJ and the 14 year old Carter began their friendship in 2001. Even since back then Carter has always been two-faced when talking about Michael Jackson. According to him, Michael wasn’t always acting acceptable with minors.
The two singers originally met in a recording studio. At the time, both of them were working on a new album. Michael befriended Aaron and wanted him to take part in his charity song “What more can I give”.
Aaron was now close with Jackson over the next 3 years and began to visit Neverland. The bond between the teenager and Michael was so strong that he asked Aaron to perform at his 30th anniversary celebration in Madison Square Garden back in 2001.
After this show, MJ gifted a one of his jackets to Carter, which he still owns today.
