Rick Ross paternity suit dropped

A woman who accused RICK ROSS of fathering her baby has dropped her paternity lawsuit after a DNA test proved the rapper is not the child's dad.

The hip-hop heavyweight was hit with legal papers last year (11) from Tyrisha Childers, who alleged she has a three-year-old son by Ross and the star had never paid any maintenance.

Ross offered to take a paternity test to prove he was not the father, and was adamant the woman, from Georgia, was mistaken - and now he's been proven right.

TMZ.com reports the test results showed there is no chance Ross is the father of the three year old, and Childers has since withdrawn her claim.
