DNA tests have confirmed that Rick Ross did not father a child with Tyrisha Childers, a 36-year-old Georgia woman who filed a paternity suit against the rapper earlier this year, TMZ reports.

Childers had accused Rozay of getting her pregnant some three years ago and failing to provide child support for his alleged son. The Miami MC staunchly denied the claims and volunteered to take a DNA test, the results of which have led Childers to dismiss her case.

Maybe that's why Ross had such a spring in his step at last night's BET Awards, where he and his Maybach Music crew ran through a medley of hits.
