O.J. Simpson has allegedly claimed he could be the father of the late Anna Nicole Smith's baby, Dannielynn.The pair starred together in Naked Gun 331/3: The Final Insult in 1994 and O.J. allegedly told documentary maker Norm Pardo, who filmed 70 hours of footage with him from 2000 to 2005, that he was "throwing his hat into the ring" regarding the paternity battle.

Pardo told the New York Post newspaper: "He said he knew Anna Nicole pretty well and he said he had slow-moving sperm and he might be the father."

O.J., who was cleared of murdering his wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her lover Ron Goldman, even joked he hoped the baby wasn't his as Fred Goldman, Ron's father who has pursued O.J. for damages in the civil court over his son's murder, might try to take her.

Pardo claims O.J. said: "I hope they don't do a DNA test on Anna Nicole's baby. If they find out Dannielynn is mine, I don't want Fred Goldman trying to seize her money or the baby herself."

The five-month-old daughter of Anna Nicole, who was buried in The Bahamas earlier this month, is currently in the custody of the courts as both Howard K. Stern and photographer Larry Birkhead claim to be her biological father.
