Larry Birkhead, the photojournalist who came forward during Anna Nicole Smith’s pregnancy and claimed to have fathered Smith’s child, tells Us Weekly that he stands by his story. Smith gave birth to a baby girl, Dannielynn Hope, on September 7, but has been mum on the identity of the father. Last night, her longtime lawyer, Howard K. Stern gave an interview to CNN’s Larry King Live saying that he is the "proud father" of the child. In an exclusive interview with Us, Birkhead calls Stern’s comments “laughable." He adds: “I am not surprised he would say this but I am laughing at it. Larry King didn’t even believe Howard." Birkhead also tells Us that he is willing to take a DNA test anytime to prove he is the father. “I have asked for a DNA test and I welcome it." There is no word on whether a paternity test will be administered, but Birkhead is already confident as to the outcome. “I am in good spirits this morning because I know I am the father of the child," he says. "I look forward to having a relationship with my new daughter.”

I can’t say I blame him because we all know it is his.
