Aaron Carter, the teen pop star and younger brother of Backstreet Boy Nick Carter, has broken off his engagement with his girlfriend.

Carter proposed to 22-year-old actress Kari Ann Peniche while on stage in Las Vegas last week. Peniche, who previously dated the elder Carter as well, is a former Miss Teen USA and Playboy Playmate.

“I got caught up in the moment and proposed,” Aaron told Us Weekly on Sunday. “I then realized it was a hasty thing to do and I am not ready for marriage quite yet.”

Fans of both Nick and Aaron can catch the brothers on “House of Carters,” a new E! Network reality series debuting October 2.
