Mariah Yeater Trying to Secretly Sell Her Story?

Mariah Yeater might be trying to secretly sell her side of the Justin Bieber baby story to the tabloids, but she doesn't want anyone to know about her story being sold.

Mariah's story has already been slowly leaking out through various tabloid publications, and none are painting a very pretty picture of the young woman claiming to be the mother of a baby boy fathered by the Biebs.

There are claims that she's already tried to pin her pregnancy on her ex-boyfriend; she's a party girl who got in trouble for wearing sexy clothing to school; she's been arrested before; and she's a high school dropout living on food stamps. She might also be facing statutory rape charges if her pregnancy claim proves to be true. In short, just about everything being written about Mariah Yeater is extremely negative.

So will she try to change this by selling her side of the story? According to Gossip Cop, she has been shopping around her version of events, which were already laid out in lurid detail in the legal documents that she filed. However, Mariah Yeater's legal team doesn't want their client's image to be tarnished further as she seeks a payday -- they're allegedly threatening to sue any publication that reveals that she's trying to get paid.

Personal photos of Mariah and her baby boy were previously featured on the cover of Star magazine, but so far her story has been told through people close to her and her legal documents. Since she's facing so much scrutiny, it wouldn't be surprising if Mariah did decide to come forward to tell her story in some way, but of course her legal team knows that it would look bad if she gets paid for it -- especially if she does so before Justin Bieber gets the chance to take a paternity test proving that he's not the father of her baby boy. However, if she sells her story and a paternity test proves that Justin is the father of her child, she won't be the only one that looks bad -- her attorneys are going to be laughing stocks.
