A few weeks ago, it was revealed that Aaron Carter's older brother, Nick Carter, had taken a restraining order against him after the former reportedly told their sister that he had thoughts of "killing babies".

Now, he has fans more worried regarding the state of his health, as the younger Carter brother live-streamed himself getting a tattoo on his face on Friday, September  27, night.

The tattoo, traced from Rihanna's 2013 cover on GQ where she posed as Medusa — the Greek gorgon with snakes for hair — is Carter's first tattoo on his face.

It has been flaunted on multiple Instagram posts by the singer. In one post, Aaron Carter wrote, "IM THE BIGGEST THING IN MUSIC RIGHT NOW. I CAN'T BE DENIED. FACT CHECK ME." In another post, he wrote, "Living my best life sweetie".



 

During the live stream, Carter films his tattoo artist tracing the GQ magazine cover before getting to work on the inking. Police officers also visited his home twice during the process after the music producer talks to the camera saying he was being "stalked by fans".

Fans who watched the live stream called emergency services and stated that Carter was having a "medical emergency", but police left after speaking to Carter.

Carter has been responding to concerns regarding his mental health through his posts on Twitter and Instagram. On Saturday, he tweeted, "I’m doing just fine. I ask you to respect me & leave me alone."

"I already have to move and I don’t need to be under scrutiny with every decision I make. I will take the necessary precautions to protect myself, and when I move no one will know where I live! #MissingMyMom right now," he shared.

After news of the restraining order, it was revealed on September 24 that Carter had sold back all his firearms and has been seeking treatment ever since. Earlier this month, Carter took to Twitter and accused his late sister Leslie Carter of raping him when he was a child.

He also accused his brother Nick of abusing him his "whole life". On Friday, September 27, Aaron also tweeted about Nick, saying "I don't care if he has a restraining order against me, I will never see or speak to him again or the rest of my family."
