Robert Powell spoke to RumorFix and said Mariah “lied” when she said she had a 30 second fumble with Justin backstage after one of his concerts, which resulted in baby Tristyn, because she wanted to make money from the story. “We were both homeless and living in Oceanside and Mariah was trying to make some quick money,” he told the website (Hardie).
