He is a member of the popular music band the Backstreet Boys. In 2000 he was included in People Magazine's list of the 50 Most Beautiful People.

Carter was born in Jamestown, New York. His father is Robert Gene Carter, his mother is Jane Elizabeth Spaulding, and his siblings include Angel, Leslie, Bobbie Jean, and singer Aaron. He also has an older half-sister named Ginger from his father's first marriage.At the time of his birth, his parents were running a night club called the Yankee Rebel in Westfield, New York; a few years later, they moved to Tampa, Florida and managed a retirement home for senior citizens. Carter began auditioning for acting roles in the early 1990s, and appeared in an unbilled role in the film Edward Scissorhands (1990). After being a member of a children's band, he was spotted by producer Lou Pearlman and made a member of Backstreet Boys, a boy band that Pearlman was training and promoting at the time. After gaining a huge following in Europe and Asia, the group returned to the United States and garnered quite a reaction. To date, Carter has helped the group sell over 80 million albums.

He appeared opposite Kevin Zegers in the 2004 horror film, The Hollow, and was slated to star in another horror film, Brew, but that project has since fallen through. Carter and his siblings star in a reality television show, House Of Carters, which premiered in October 2006 on E!. The series features all five Carter siblings reuniting to live in the same house, and will feature in-depth moments of their ups and downs of living.
