Ross also said she believed Michelle was on methamphetamines when she was attacked, but RadarOnline.com has not confirmed her allegation.
20-year-old Mariah claims — as first reported in Star magazine — she and Bieber had an unprotected, 30-second sexual encounter in a backstage bathroom at the Staples Center following an October 2010 concert. She said the tryst produced her son Tristyn Anthony Markhouse Yeater, who was born July 6.
