Who wouldn't get stressed out?

After Mariah Yeater reportedly dropped her dubious paternity lawsuit against him last week, it looks like Justin Bieber's baby mama drama behind him -- which means his girlfriend Selena Gomez can breathe a sigh of relief.

The singer-actress, 19, opened up about the fracas (which made headlines worldwide) during a Thursday appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

"What a crazy two weeks it's been!" Ellen DeGeneres remarked to the star, 19.

"To say the least," the "Who Says?" singer admitted. "I have been [alright]."

With Yeater's lawsuit dismissed -- and unearthed text messages from Yeater about the real father of her baby further disproving her claims -- Gomez confided things are "good" and less stressful.

Indeed, Gomez and Bieber, 17, have shown a united, affectionate front throughout the scandal, in which Yeater claimed he fathered her 4-month-old son, Tristyn, during a quick encounter backstage at an L.A. concert a year ago.

Still, Gomez has been "exhausted and withdrawn," one source told Us Weekly. "She's supportive of Justin, but it's been very tough."

    What I don't understand, is people are focusing on Mariah Yeater's Age-- well Ms Gomez, appears to be have been 'dating a minor', for well over a year.....oooh all Selena and Justin do, is eat ice cream and spaghetti and meatballs and watch movies together---ooh is that all...:) It's possible...

    I read the paternity suit is still on--different attorney(Jeffrey M Leving), and they are asking for the results to remain confidential. The woman is trying to disappear, but yet have the paternity determined. People have threatened her life. Really if the remain confidential-- the public won't know the truth..either way... I generally don't think this kid would lose fans if he admits to being 'a kid, and irresponsible'.

    I'd like to know if he was dumb enough to get himself in that situation of an accusation! Not once did I hear him deny having a fling with this girl....poor Selena!

    When did she drop the lawsuit? I haven't read about that yet. It just makes me wonder if maybe someone settled out of court in order to make this go away...
