ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Singer Leslie Carter, the sister of Aaron Carter and former Backstreet Boy Nick Carter, has died in upstate New York. She was 25.
A publicist for the Carter family confirmed the death, but provided no details Wednesday on where or how she died.
A statement from the family says they're grieving for Carter and requested "the utmost privacy."
Carter's single "Like Wow" was on the soundtrack for "Shrek" in 2001. In 2006, she appeared in all eight episodes of the reality show "House of Carters."

Hi Les,
It's been a painful 12 years without you and we all miss you like hell.
It's hard hoping to hear your voice on the radio, and coming to tears when I do. You were the person who made me smile, even if I didn't know you personally.
Rest easy beautiful. I'm just waiting to see you again.

Leslie,
It's been 12 years. I was 2 years old when you died. Even now, it hurts like hell to think what you could've done if that hadn't happened. Save a concert for us all up there and say hi to Aaron and BJ. We love you soo much, angel.

How precious are our loved ones, when we as parents lose them at such a young age. I pray for the family and friends who miss her so, that God's love be with you. And" That God do hurry to your assistance"....Ps 71:12
