Long before there was One Direction or even the Jonas Brothers, there were only two boy bands that mattered, way back in the 90s, 'NSYnc and Backstreet Boys, and now one of the most famous members of the latter is joining "Dancing with the Stars," something that will see Nick Carter's net worth rise.
In the 90s, Carter was the equivalent of 'Nsync's Justin Timberlake, also trying a solo career that had news outlets all over the world making up a rivalry between the two pop singers, which was ultimately decided in 2009 after years of fake fighting thanks to Jimmy Fallon - and Nick Carter's net worth still grew from it.
In 2002, Carter left the Backstreet Boys, the band that made him famous, to pursue a solo career, with his lead single "Help Me" becoming a major hit that year and entering the top 10 of People Magazine's "50 Most Beautiful People," ahead of both Timberlake and even Brad Pitt, as Nick Carter's net worth grew.
Later on, Nick Carter's net worth grew as did the public's interest in his family, as he had a younger brother, Aaron, also making a career in the music industry; later, he also starred in the VH1 reality show "I Heart Nick Carter" alongside then fiancée Lauren Kitt, as the show dealt with their upcoming nuptials.
These days, Nick Carter's net worth stems from his return to BSB, as they continue to tour and release albums, although they haven't had the same massive success they did in the 90s since their album "Black & Blue."
Now, according to Us Weekly, the 90s heartthrob will be joining the 21st season of "Dancing with the Stars," and it was a former rival (now friend) who advised him to do it: Joey Fattone, with whom he's currently shooting a film called "Dead 7."
Before starting his stint in "Dancing with the Stars," Nick Carter's net worth stands at $35 million according to Celebrity Net Worth.
