Who's Your Daddy? Celebrity Paternity Lawsuits

Future, Juvenile and more who faced unexpected fatherhood.

Chris Brown - Extramarital hookups is nothing new in the world of celebrities, but one of the stickiest scandals a star can find himself in is a paternity lawsuit. Today's speedy and accurate DNA tests make it nearly impossible to keep a love child private. Here's our rundown of some of the most notorious paternity suits.  After news got out that Breezy had a daughter, the pop crooner has become more of a family man in the public eye, taking his little princess Royalty everywhere he goes. Though he's allegedly been paying his baby's mother, Nia Guzman, a hefty amount over the years, she apparently wants more, but he's not budging. He recently put his foot down and is set to take her to court over full custody of their 1-year-old. Chris claims that she is extorting him for huge child support payments and even often refuses to let him see his daughter.(Photo: Splash News)
Juvenile - Cash Money Millionaire Juvenile filed court documents in 2012 to determine the legitimacy of his then 13-year-old son, insisting it was for "procedural reasons to get custody." He said at the time, "I hope the test proves that he is mine." The move came after Ju was ordered to pay $160,000 in back child support for his son. (Photo: Cindy Ord/Getty Images for Sirius)
DMX - In 2004, Monique Wayne filed a successful paternity suit against rapper DMX. A couple of years later, X told Sister 2 Sister magazine that Wayne "raped" him after a night at the club, claiming his "d**k be out" when he sleeps. Wayne was not happy with the allegation and filed a defamation lawsuit. A judge ordered DMX to pay $1.5 million for compensatory and punitive damages. Fast forward to 2015, and X is still raking up charges. He was arrested in July 2015 for failing to pay child support.

In the music video for the "Swagger Wagon," which dropped on Friday (Aug. 1), Busta spits alongside the Neubert family, who get their stunt on as they do their best Soulja Boy "Crank That" interpretation.(Photo: Bryan Bedder/Getty Images for VH1 Save The Music)Lil Wayne - Weezy was disappointed in himself for not earning any nominations at MTV’s VMAs or the BET Awards, and so he vowed to his fans he’d work harder in the future: "Noticed I wasn't nominated nor involved n da MTV VMA's nor da BET awards...I apologize to my fans and I promise 2 work harder if it kills me."
