Nick Carter

Nick Carter's countersuit against Dream singer Melissa Schuman will be allowed to move forward, a Las Vegas judge ruled on Wednesday. The 43-year-old entertainer was in court for a hearing after Schuman, 39, and her father Jerome had sought to block a countersuit he filed after she had sued him claiming he had sexually assaulted her in 2002, TMZ reported Wednesday.

Nick Carter is denying allegations of sexual assault from a woman in a new lawsuit over a 2003 incident that took place when she was 15 and he was 23. The woman claims that the Backstreet Boys vocalist sexually assaulted her on a yacht and later on a bus after getting her drunk, TMZ reported Tuesday after reviewing court docs. The woman did not identify herself in the lawsuit, according to the outlet.

According to the arrest report obtained by TMZ, Bobbie Jean, 41 (left), was accused of stealing six items from Hobby Lobby in Hernando County, Florida, with a total value slightly exceeding $55. The store's loss prevention team alerted sheriff's deputies after Bobbie Jean was seen removing items from the shelves, stuffing them into her purse, and exiting the store without making any attempt to pay for the merchandise. When deputies confronted Bobbie Jean in the store's loss prevention office, she purportedly tossed a blue container from her purse beneath a nearby desk. Following a field test, it was revealed that the powder inside tested positive for fentanyl. Bobbie Jean is the younger sister of Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter, and the second of five Carter children (pictured right). The Carter family has suffered considerable heartbreak, with two of the five siblings having died at a young age amid battles with addiction and mental health issues.
