Two of pop music's younget and hottest-stars, Aaron Carter and Samantha Mumba, recently took sunshiny Orlando, florida, by storm when they starred in Aaron Carter and Samantha Mumba in concert. The special aired on the Disney Channel on March 30. (Dont' stress if you missed it' the show will be rerun throughout the month of April. Just check you local listings for the right time!) Of couse, J-14 was there for all the behind-the-scenes fun.
For Samantha, who's a native of Ireland, this was a first-time visit to Disney World, but Aaron's an old hand at all the rides and attractions in the famed park. "My fav thing is the Rock 'N Roler Coaster at the MGM Studios," says Aaron. "I'll have to get Samantha to ride it, too!"
The concert was filmed in the evening, and that gave Aaron plenty of time to hang out in the park with his family, including his big bro Nick, who just happened to be in Orlando and paid his lil sib a surprise visit. The blonde bros spent tons of quality time together, riding rides and playing sports at Disney's Wild World of Sports. "I don't get to see Nick that often," says Aaron, who loves to hang out with his older bro. "Any time we have together is just fun. I love being with him."
Of couse, it wasn't all fun and games- eventually, Aaron and Samantha had to sing for their suppers. Samantha was way nervous about her performance, but once she stepped on the stage with her eight dancers, she was as cool as they come. She performed her smash songs "Gotta Tell Ya" and "Baby Come Over" to a screaming audience. In fact, Samantha rocked teh house so hard, the skies opened up and it started raining during her finale! "I didn't mind getting wet," she says good- naturedly. "I was already sweating from dancing." (Betha didn't know this" A bunch of the guys in Samantha's touring band also toured with NSYNC- smal world, huh?)
By the time the adorable Prince of Pop appeared on stage, the rain had stopped and the stars were shining through. The crowd went crazy when Aaron hit the stage doing cartwheels with his four dancers. He sang all his hits, including "It's a Party," "I Want Candy," and his fav song, "Bounce." From the audience reaction, you could tell that last tune is a fan fave, too~
Aaron ended his set by blowing kisses to his fans and waving 2 fingers in the ari- "Peace out~" he said, before taking his final bows. He's a total pro.
