Journalism's hottie Ronan Farrow joked about his paternity in the semifinals of RuPaul's Drag Race.

Now, Woody Allen is the father listed on Ronan's birth certificate (for obvious reasons, they are now estranged). However, there have been some suspicions that Frank Sinatra is actually Ronan's father and that he was conceived during an affair between Sinatra and Ronan's mother, Mia Farrow.

It's worth noting that the rumors are something that Sinatra's friend Tony Oppedisano has disputed.

When asked in 2013 if Sinatra could be Ronan's father, Mia replied, "Possibly." In response, Ronan tweeted, "Listen, we're all *possibly* Frank Sinatra's son."

"Ru, it is the semifinals!" Ronan replied. "I haven't been this nervous since I took a paternity test."
