>>>What was his first clue that the baby wasn't his">>>

Hey Bud, if you want the situation to remain private, I think you should take a lesson from yourself. Is this a joke?

"I'd say the mother probably had something to do with it, though!"
You are right unless it was an immaculate conception. But I doubt it would happen in the family of a country singer.

Are we being asked what we think about CC posting said info on his website?First,I wouldn't have announced the fact(false paternity)to the world,or posted same on my website.This guy must be a laughing stock in Nashville.Second,i would have asked the young lady to move out of my home immediately.If he allows gfriend+baby to stick around he may end up on the hook for support.I know very little about country music,but if he's a popular singer he's probably worth a lot of coin.

Sad...I wonder if she told him or if the baby may have been biracial. What a shock for him!

From the source link: "Since the birth, however, we have discovered that biologically, the child is not mine."

Your post: "Did I miss the part where there was a paternity test? Could it be that the baby is not the same flavor as Chris?"

The only way I know to establish paternity beyond all doubt is a DNA test. Do you recall Dinah Shore having a black child with her white husband? Turns out there was African-American blood in her ancestral line.

Cagle's statement leaves more questions than answers.

I found the story about Dinah Shore fascinating, so I went surfing for more info, and found contradictions. Some said the husband was Burt Reynolds, others said it was George Montgomery. Sounded a bit like an urban legend.

Looking for credible evidence, I found the question had already been addressed by the self-proclaimed arbiter of Hollywood truth -- Billy Barty.

Q: Dear Barty,
First I want to thank you for providing this vaulable service. My question concerns a story which I heard from my parents when I was a youngster and then this same story was brought up again recently (several years later). To my ears this story sounds like an "urban legend" but my parents swear that it is a true story. The story goes something like this. Dinah Shore, the famed singer and acrtess supposedly gave birth to a baby of the black race sometime in either the late 1940's or early 1950's. The birth caused quite a scandal which caused Dinah's husband (George Montgomery) to leave for a period. Also, Dinah supposedly sued her grandmother for not telling her that was "negro blood" in the family history. I am assuming that there is no truth to any of this. However, my parents heard it from somewhere. Can you shed any light on whether or not any part of this story may be true or, if it is a complete falsehood, how did this story originate?

-Paul Purdell

A:Dear Paul: Thanks for your question. This story has been going around for a good many years and I most assuredly can tell you that it is a complete falsehood. Film historians have never concluded who exactly started this "urban legend" but it is my belief that it had to do with Dinah's Shore's promotion of Chevrolet automobiles in the 1950's. I am unable to offer conclusive proof on this matter but believe that perhaps the Ford Motor Company or Plymouth Corporation may have been behind this. It is true that I refused to assist these two corporations in their advertising campaigns while Shirley and I ran what is referred to as the first "advertising boutique" in the US but I have no axes to grind in this matter. Nowadays it seems that everyone is having illegitimate children and racially mixed couples no longer are out of the ordinary, but back in the day that sort of thing was frowned upon and it nearly ended Dinah's career in it's tracks. Her husband George Montgomery was forced to do commercials for furniture polish to make ends as the result of this smear campaign and their marriage suffered. Dinah Shore was a dear friend of mine and I cherish her memory.

Could Billy be wrong?

I lived and walked with intelligence during the time all this happened and never heard Shore refute it. Who knows?

I did not, so I have no clue. But you have to love Billy Barty!

we have discovered that biologically, the child is not mine
"...because we just found out that the backdoor ain't the right way in."
