"Justin Bieber&amp;apos;s ready to prove he&amp;apos;s nobody&amp;apos;s baby daddy.\r\nA source confirms to Us Weekly that the 17-year-old pop star will take a paternity test to disprove Mariah Yeater&amp;apos;s claims that he&amp;apos;s the father of her 3-month-old son.\r\n&amp;quot;Justin&amp;apos;s team chose to proactively make arrangements for him to take a DNA test to put this to rest when he gets back from Europe,&amp;quot; a source close to the star tells Us.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;It&amp;apos;s ridiculous that this story has gotten this big, and it&amp;apos;s entirely obviously make up,&amp;quot; says the source. &amp;quot;So he&amp;apos;s doing this just to put an end to [the allegations] even though he shouldn&amp;apos;t have to.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nYeater, 20, claims she became pregnant after a sexual encounter backstage at the Staples Center in L.A. when she was 19 and Bieber was 16. If Yeater&amp;apos;s allegations turned out to be true, police told the Associated Press she would be investigated for statutory rape. (Under California law, anyone who has unlawful sex with a minor and not more than three years older is guilty of a misdemeanor, which carries up to a one-year jail sentence.)\r\n\r\nSo is Bieber planning on taking Yeater to court? His rep tells Us in a statement he and his team will &amp;quot;vigorously pursue all available legal remedies to protect Justin and hold those involved with bringing this suit accountable for their actions.&amp;quot;\r\nDuring an appearance on the Today Show Friday, Bieber professed to have &amp;quot;never met the woman&amp;quot; who claims he fathered her child. &amp;quot;I&amp;apos;d just like to say, basically, that none of those allegations are true... I know that I&amp;apos;m going to be a target, but I&amp;apos;m never going to be a victim.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
