INSIDE EDITION EXCLUSIVE: DNA RESULTS IN: IS JERRY LEWIS THE BIOLOGICAL FATHER TO SUZAN LEWIS?

- DNA Results from son, Gary Lewis to be revealed on Inside Edition, THURSDAY, MARCH 5 -

New York, NY - March 4, 2009 -   Suzan Lewis' life is a far cry from that of a Hollywood legend's daughter.  Suzan -- whose legal last name is Minoret -- says she has been down and out due to injuries suffered in a nearly fatal car accident.  Suzan says she had lived on the streets, and survives on a meager disability allowance. 

Jerry Lewis, who just received an Oscar for his humanitarian work, has never publicly acknowledged Suzan as his daughter and declined comment for an INSIDE EDITION report last month on the paternity claims. 

For a report to air Thursday, March 5, INSIDE EDITION will reveal the results of a DNA sample submitted by Jerry Lewis' son, Gary - of Gary Lewis and the Playboys fame.  The results will determine whether Suzan Lewis could be his half-sister.

According to Suzan, her mother had an affair with Lewis and Suzan was conceived in a suite above the famous Copacobana nightclub in New York City.  At the time Lewis was performing with Dean Martin. Suzan, who looks a lot like Jerry Lewis, tells INSIDE EDITION her late mother made the stunning statement after being diagnosed with cancer and even signed an affidavit attesting that the legendary funny-man was her father. 

INSIDE EDITION is produced daily at the CBS Broadcast Center in New York City and produced and distributed by CBS Television Distribution, a unit of CBS Corp.  http://www.insideedition.com/Check local listings for times
