Rumors that Selena Gomez broke up with Justin Bieber following allegations that he fathered a baby with a fan have been dispelled by her representative.

Radaronline.com had reported that a source told them: “Selena ended it abruptly. She broke the news to Justin just in the past 24 hour. Justin has insisted to Selena that the woman’s allegations are simply not true.”

The source also said: “His camp is in damage control mode and attempting to convince her to stick around in the relationship for a few more weeks, because they fear it will be seen as an admission that something indeed took place between Justin and the woman who is alleging that he’s the father of her baby.”
Bieber has spoken out for the first time today since the allegations emerged. He told the Today Show’s host Matt Lauer, “I would just like to say basically that none of those allegations are true. I know that I'm going to be a target but I'm never going to be a victim.”
He went on to say: “I think it's crazy because every night after the show I'm gone, right from the stage to my car so it's crazy that some people want to make up such false allegations but to set the record straight, none of it is true.”
Bieber told Lauer that he had “never met the woman.”
After his appearance on the show, Bieber tweeted: “Thanks for letting me set the record straight. what is real are my fans...this album...and this charity work. see u guys the 23rd.”
Twenty-year-old Justin Bieber fan Mariah Yeater has claimed that teenage pop star Justin Bieber was the father of her child. However, it has since emerged that she reportedly made a paternity claim against her ex-boyfriend last year. She accused her ex of being the father of the same child, but he denied the claim.
Yeater was then arrested for slapping him.
According to TMZ, Yeater had been dating John Terranova toward the end of high school. Yeater and Terranova got into a fight after she told him that he was the father. He denied her allegations and Yeater was then arrested and charged with battery after hitting John in the face, according to TMZ.
Yeater was arrested on Dec. 21 on suspicion of battery domestic violence.
Yeater filed a paternity lawsuit on Oct. 31 and asked Justin Bieber to take a paternity test and provide “adequate support for my baby.”
Yeater told a California court that she had a tryst with Bieber after his concert at L.A’s Staples Center on Oct. 25 last year.
RadarOnline reported that Yeater told the judge: “When I later realized I was pregnant with Justin Bieber's baby, I tried to contact him through his representatives but no one ever called me back. On July 6, 2011, I gave birth to a baby boy. That was exactly 36 weeks and two days after the sexual encounter with Justin Bieber. Based upon the timing as well as the fact there were no other possible men that I had sex with that could be the father of this baby, I believe that Justin Bieber is in fact the father of my baby.”
Yeater has been receiving death threats from Bieber’s fans since her allegations emerged.
