We recently reported a story from Star about Jay-Z having a child with Trinidadian model Shenelle Scott, but the main source has recanted his story (see here)! Jerald Andrews, the father of Shenelle’s ex-boyfriend who reportedly thought the baby was his, now denies knowing any real information regarding the baby or who his father is. He says:

“I know Shenelle, but I’ve never spoken to her or my son about this. They’re very private people. The stuff about the DNA test was on the Internet. It’s all from an old article on the Internet. I don’t know if it’s true.”

Back when the story of the child first came up in 2007, Jay-Z denied all allegations:

“There is no truth to these ridiculous rumors,” the rapper’s rep told AllHipHop.com. “People should be ashamed of using this kind of story and exploiting a child for publicity and ratings.”

With regards to Jay-Z giving Shenelle a house as hush money, he said that it was a lie as well. He claims that she is married to a basketball player and that he purchased her house for her.

Hmmm what do you think? That baby looks like him…
