AARON CARTER - CARTER DATING BACK-UP DANCER

Teen pop idol AARON CARTER is following in the footsteps of JENNIFER LOPEZ and BRITNEY SPEARS, by embarking on a romance with one of his back-up dancers.

The I LOVE CANDY singer, who has dated HILARY DUFF and LINDSAY LOHAN in the past, has been with brunette BRITNEY for several months, and he admits he's deeply in love.

He says, "(I tell her I love her) every day."

But their relationship will soon face a challenge, because Carter has yet to learn if his girlfriend will be willing to relocate when he moves from Florida to California this summer (05).

He adds, "That's entirely up to her."
