LOS ANGELES (AP) ― A spokeswoman for Melanie Brown says Eddie Murphy has taken a DNA test to determine if he's the father of Brown's two-month-old daughter.

Brown, who was known as "Scary Spice" when she performed with the pop group Spice Girls, dated Murphy last year and has maintained that the child is his. The 32-year-old singer gave birth to Angel Iris Murphy Brown on April 3. She listed Murphy as the father on the birth certificate.

Brown also has an eight-year-old daughter. Murphy has five children from his marriage to Nicole Mitchell Murphy.

Murphy's spokesman has consistently denied comment about Brown's claims. Today he said he would not confirm the paternity test.
