Nick Carter's sister Leslie unexpectedly passed away this week.
So we were moved to hear that the Backstreet Boy will continue with his upcoming tour.
He'll be dedicating the series of concerts to his late sister as a touching tribute.
A statement on the singer's Facebook page said: "Nick Carter is thankful to the many people and the fans who have shared their wishes and prayers during this tragic time.
"We want to let the fans know the tour will go on as promised."
Nick, 32, added a personal message, which read: "Performing is cathartic to me and I am dedicating the rest of my tour to my sister since she loved to watch me perform."
Twenty-five-year-old Leslie, who was also a singer and appeared on House Of Carters with her famous siblings in 2006, passed away in New York yesterday.
Her death has come as a huge shock to her family. In a statement to Access Hollywood, they said: "We are deeply saddened for the loss of our beloved sister, daughter, and granddaughter Leslie Carter."
She leaves behind a husband and a 10-month-old daughter.
Brother Aaron, 24, will be taking some time off from his role in the off-Broadway production of The Fantasticks. A spokesperson for the play said: "His Fantasticks family loves him and offers him support and prayers during this difficult time."
We're sending lots of love to the Carters.
