Mark Lester: "I Believe Paris Is My Daughter"

Is this the biological father of Michael Jackson's daughter Paris?

Former child star Mark Lester claims 11-year-old Paris Jackson is his child and is willing to take a paternity test to prove it, the British tabs are reporting...

Lester - who shot to fame in the musical Oliver! - was good friends with MJ and "gave Michael my sperm [in 1996] so that he could have kids. It was a gift to him." Apparently, the actor is convinced because of the growing likeness between Paris and his other daughter Harriet.

Why has he kept it a secret until now though? So many people have spoken out about their connection with MJ, but only after his death.

Is this guy legit or simply after his 15 minutes of fame???
