“Oh Aaron, will you teach me how to bowl?”

“Sure,” says Aaron Carter – “A.C.” to his friends and fans – with a dazzling white smile.

So begins my “dream date” with the 17-year-old, multi-platinum (“Oh Aaron”) pop star. In town for tonight’s concert at B.B. King’s, he took a timeout from rehearsals to roll the ball and grab a slice.

Turns out, he really loves to bowl.

After showing me how to put a spin on the ball, I get a spare – only he’s not so lucky. He knocks down a measly five pins and groans.

“I’m usually really good,” says Aaron, who claims to average 210 a game. “The lane leans to the left!” Hmmm, right.

Though he’d just flown in from California, he seems hyper – dancing around the alley and singing along to whatever song is playing.

“It’s my quick metabolism,” he says, scarfing down a slice and a cola between frames. As we eat, his new song “Saturday Night” (off his album due in June) starts playing and he sings along.

If it sounds more R&B than the feel-good pop songs that made him famous – well, it’s supposed to.

The old songs and video seem “cheesy now,” he says, “but the fans loved it, and back then that’s who I was.

“I have to be careful what I transition into, because it might work and it might not.”

Speaking of not working out: What’s up with his dating Lindsay Lohan and Hilary Duff at the same time?

He shrugs and matter of factly says, “there are a lot of misconceptions about me. That’s not what happened…

“I was 14 and they wanted to be in a committed relationship with somebody who definitely couldn’t do that. But I’m more mature, I’m older now.”

Then he jumps up, finally bowls a spare – and does a little dance of joy.

Back in his seat, he says he’s been dating one of his dancers. It’s hard, he says, to meet a girl who isn’t a groupie:

“There are some girls who are regular, but they become groupies when they meet you, I can tell right away.”

Then he spots my watch and brightens up.

“Is that a Tag [Heuer]? I love Tags,” he says, and shows me his watch: a giant, very bling, diamond creation by Jacob the Jeweler.

He also loves to wrestle sharks.

“My friends got me into it two years ago, because I live in the [Florida] Keys,” he says. “We just go jump on sharks and wrestle them …

“It’s not that dangerous, though – we wrestle 5- to 6-foot long sharks. If you grab onto a shark and use its whole body weight to flip it over, it can’t do anything” – because it’s paralyzed.

Then he points out his wrestling souvenir: a jagged, 2-inch-long scar on his left hand.

After 10 frames, it’s time to go: Aaron has to run lines with his acting coach before he auditions for a movie. Soon we’ll see him on the big screen, in “Supercross” and “Popstar.”

He gives me a friendly hug goodbye – he feels thinner than he looks – and heads for the door. A man recognizes him and runs up to get an autograph. Aaron, happy to oblige, signs a piece of paper.

Then he leaves, as the man and his friends break into applause. I’m clapping, too.
