NICK CARTER - CARTER: 'LAFAVE WAS MY FIRST'

CARTER: 'LAFAVE WAS MY FIRST'

NICK CARTER has revealed he lost his virginity to DEBRA LAFAVE, the Florida schoolteacher who shocked America by having sex with a 13-year-old pupil. The former BACKSTREET BOY told shock jock HOWARD STERN he dated LaFave for 18 months when they were classmates, but ditched her after learning "she had cheated on me with a girl". He kept quiet during the scandal which thrust Lafave to notoriety because his management team were worried about the controversy. The singer says, "My publicist is like, 'Stay as far away from that s**t as you can.' "She was probably my number one. But maybe that's just because it was my first. Actually a lot of the girls I've had the best sex with or best anything with have been just normal girls."
