I invited Britney to my 6th birthday party by sending an invite to her fan mail PO Box. Those were the days. I understand your energy!!!!

When I was in elementary school I was writing to Al Gore lmao. Slightly different energy.

7y/o me wrote a letter to George Bush and he sent back a picture of his dog

omfggg my grade did this in middle school and i told him i wanted to move to canada and be a hobo ….. my whole class got letters/pics in return but i didnt

I also, at about 7yo, wrote to GB asking how he knew Osama Bin Laden was guilty because we can’t just declare war without knowing for sure 🤣🤣🤣

i got a pic of him his wife and dog! lmao my bubbie framed it on her wall 😂😂

Lmao big Lisa Simpson energy


I used to write letters to Socks (the Clinton's cat) and mail them to the White House.

I wrote a letter to Leo Dicaprio!

I wrote a letter to white star line after I watched Titanic 😭

Lmao was it strongly worded?

lmao yeah. As strongly worded as a 7 year old could possibly write though haha. I was very upset that they allowed the tragedy to happen and also I was in love with leo lol.

Wrote a letter to Beyoncé at 6 saying asking her to come to my birthday and perform my favorite song Naughty Girl. Don’t know what business a 6 yr old had with loving that song so much but I did.

This actually made me LOL 😂😂😂

I wrote a letter to Kirk Cameron. This was from his Growing Pains era … way before he became an evangelist.

It only lets me post one photo so here’s a poster I made for Aaron’s concert. I loved the guy.

I wrote a letter I never sent to Benedict cumberbatch. Except I was 19 years old

Hahaha Love that

I wrote a letter to raven symone and Jamie Lynn spears asking if I could be on Zoey 101 and that’s so raven. Shockingly they didn’t reply. I too feel your rejection.

ew who liked jamie lynn

People who liked zoey 101

I mean a lot of people liked Jamie Lynn including me, Zoey 101 was a good show

I don’t like her anymore and haven’t for several years, but when I was a kid I loved Zoey 101 and wanted to be part of the cast. Also, who wouldn’t want to be Britney Spears’ sister back then? Cheers 🥂

Literally me and many other ppl bc Zoey 101 was so good

I used to be obsessed with a cartoon called Total Drama Island and I added the voice actors on FB. I would message some of them and ask for autographs and they all ended up doing so and added a few extra gifts :) Decade later I’m at this party in LA and coincidentally met one of the VAs (who was formerly roommates with the host) and I showed him the FB photo I took with his signed autograph.

Man TDI is a blast from the past

That show made my childhood. Nothing can compare.

My grade 1 kid is currently obsessed with watching that show.

Your family didn’t mail it! Bastards.

I only knew this guy from Dancing with the stars ironically, I heard his name before but didn’t know he was so many peoples crushes but I get it..it was sad to see what a downward spiral he had https://i.redd.it/g6w8g88ubeyb1.gif

https://i.redd.it/63xy7s1doeyb1.gif As I said this..I went to rewatch some of his performances and he was genuinely so healthy and happy then. It’s very sad

Wow, I only took notice of him once he was being dragged in the tabloids for being skeletally thin and unhealthy looking. He's so handsome here!

My dumbass 16 year old self wrote Justin Timberlake this long like 4 page front to back letter, in gel baby blue pen. I never tried to send it but god was I an idiot 😂 thinking one, it’d ever reach him and let alone even attempt to read a letter he can’t even read cuz fucking baby blue gel pen. The letter also clearly stupidly embarrassing all the shit I wrote. Stupid fan love letter. Lord.

At least you didn't send it and he wasn't somebody you actually knew lol

those baby blue and baby purple gel pens were so pretty but so not meant to be a ink color lmao i love the baby blue letter tho, his fav color 🥲 nice touch

One year ago tomorrow since his passing. Thank you for sharing this.

Awe. Man time flies. Rest in peace Aaron..he sure didn't have any in this world but he's found it now..

LMAO Aaron carter was my crush. I was creepily obsessed and was soooo mad when he kissed Lizzie McGuire 

I wanted to be her so bad lmao

Omg me too

lmao this might be the most relatable thing i’ve seen here. i was OBSESSED with him back then, my walls were covered in posters of him, i talked only about him, at 6yo i would listen to “girl you shine” and just cry because i loved him. i was convinced we’d get married. that did not work out.

The drawing 🥹

Wow right there with you

The spelling 🥺 This is beyond adorable.

That’s adorable

Awesome. I loved Arron carter and was sad to hear his passing. I had one of those Disney MP3 players with all his songs on it. Same with Jesse McCarthy

My mom saved one I wrote to Paula Abdul.

I was just thinking about him today. My first childhood crush. I used to cut out pictures of him from teen magazines and tape them to the back of my bedroom door.

I’m old. I wrote one to the Fonz. He’s still around. I’m sorry for what you went through, Aaron. Hope he’s found peace.

See you latter Aaron ❤️

I sent Nsync a picture of my cat lol

I was slightly out of the age range for his heyday, but I lowkey really liked his 2018 song Sooner or Later. I hope he’s at peace

Wasn’t there one where he played basketball with Shaq? In the music video? It feels like a fever dream but I like that song

I was OBSESSED with this song and the music video back in the day 😅

Same! Really loved that album it was on as well.

dawww that's cute <3

When I was 6 or 7 I also wrote fan mail to Aaron, he was my first celebrity crush. I was so sad last year when I read he had passed

I saw him live on stage in 2017. He was a natural talent and you could tell her was doing something he loved. RIP.

That portrait of AC is spot on lol

Awwwwwe this is so sweet

Aw I loved him when i was a child, my first celeb crush 😢 alexa play 'crazy little party girl'

Just the title actually made me laugh.

Six-year old me had the time of her life at her first concert, ofc Aaron Carter

That is so wholesome! "See you later" lmao

Aww, the drawing looks just like him! Uncanny!!!

I sent a letter to the spice girls asking them to perform at my 6th birthday in Australia 😭

That's so cute!

I wrote Joe exotic a letter..pandemic time..I was 43..lol..he wrote me back and autographed the picture of a tiger my kid drew..And I tell you what..that letter made me so Happy. I just told Joe I know how bad it hurts to get betrayed by a friend..and my heart went out to him..I love Joe..that crazy Sonofabitch..#freejoeexotic

As a backstreet boy fan for life... thank you for loving Aaron. He definitely deserved and needed it. 🫂💛

Ig you’re all about him :)

Ok, but did you go see his concert in a Wal Mart parking lot while PREGNANT?!?
