This iPhone case is also a hairbrush. Riiiight.

YoBrush doubles as a cover for your iPhone saving you space in your bag. Weird beauty gadget alert!

Meet YoBrush, the hairbrush built into an iPhone 5 cover. Handy? Hairy?
Stylist Marco Norma came up with the questionably innovative idea, and this is how he’s pitched it: “Designed for even tough after beach de-tangling, windy days, sports activities or on the run travel, YOBRUSH keeps you looking good with just the essentials for your active life.”
We see the logic but did they ever test the prototype?! We haven’t, but we imagine it makes for a rather scratchy phone call, especially if you’re going along with your “active life” resting your mobile between your ear and shoulder as you multi-task.
Another feature we’re unsure of is the name. Is it ‘Yo’ like you’re calling for it in your bag? We keep hearing Jessie in Breaking Bad’s “Yo bitch!” catchphrase in our minds which is rather distracting.
So yeah, the jury’s out and probably returning with a ‘no-go’ verdict. What’s yours? Would you use a hairbrush phone cover? Tweet us @dnewstarmag

Christina Aguilera posed pregnant and completely naked Nipples and all.

Just to let you know, Christina Aguilera is VERY pregnant right now. And she wants you too see every last inch of her pregnant body, visible nipples and all. Good on her.
As part of a feature for V Magazine,  Christina Aguilera posed VERY pregnant and 100% naked, sexily cupping her breast and throwing back her glorious blonde mane. In one photo, she covers both nipples and modestly looks down, under a filter that kind of makes it look like she's a floating apparition in a storm. Weird.

2 kids of same parents missing from school

…35 days after

Just like the parents of the Chibok schoolgirls abducted more than 100 days ago, the parents of two toddlers have been in misery and agony since June 30, 2014, when the children failed to return from school.
The two little children, three-year-old Chisom Nweke and her sibling, Somtochukwu who is 18 months, have not been seen for almost 35 days. Until they were declared missing, the toddlers were pupils of Master’s Vessel Academy, a private school in Obeozalla Nkanu West Local Government Area, Enugu State. Heart-rending tale about the missing kids began when the proprietress of the school, Mrs Dorothy Okafor, had to undertake an assignment outside the school and handed over to her deputy, 35-year-old Uchechukwu Onah, to take charge of the school. No not long after Okafor left, Onah allegedly dismissed the pupils at noon instead of the normal 4.00pm closing time of school.

Our Pastor lied – MFM

■ Church accuses own official of lying about eye surgery
Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, MFM, has accused one of its pastors, Lawrence Okechukwu Amuruche of telling lies against the leadership of the church with his claims that he sought assistance for an eye surgery and was instead given anointing oil and water.
Saturday Sun had in its last edition published the story of an MFM pastor Lawrence Amuruche, 61, who cried out for help after the anointing oil, water and prayer points allegedly given to him by the General Overseer of MFM, Dr Daniel Kolawale Olukoya failed to stop the cataract growing in his eyes.
Amuruche, who pastors the Alakija, Satellite town branch of the MFM, said the cataract had already grown on one eye and threatening to start growing on the second eye if medical help does not come fast.
He had visited the Sun head office in Lagos with a copy of the letter written to the church for help. He told his story as a way of reaching out the General Overseer and other Nigerians who may want to help and save him from going blind.

Pastors nabbed trading in human skulls

■ We only recycle the bones – Suspects
Three suspected human parts dealers, two of them Islamic clerics, are now helping police detectives to break the demand and supply chain of a trans-border syndicate which trades in human skulls.
The suspects already arrested in connection with the illicit trade include Clement Omodijie as well as two clerics, Olasukunmi Owolabi and Usman Saliu who were all arrested by operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, attached to the Lagos State police command, Ikeja. The suspects were nabbed recently when they were about to supply three human skulls to their buyers at Ikorodu.
According to police sources, the suspects alleged that the skulls found in their possession were sold to herbalists who in turn claimed that they used them to prepare concoctions for their sick customers. They also alleged that some were sold to customers from across the country who needed the skulls to perform rituals.
Of late, several syndicates involved in human parts have been busted within Lagos, a development that made the state Police Commissioner, Umaru Manko issue a directive to detectives especially those in SARS to intensify their searchlight on such illicit trade. This led to the arrest of the suspects who were accused of going to the Igbogbo cemetery in Ikorodu at night to exhume human skulls.

Ahead of the coming African/American Leaders Summit billed for Monday in Washington DC, United States, President Barack Obama, has said some African participants attending will be screened for exposure to the dreaded Ebola virus.

President Goodluck Jonathan along with his aides is among the African leaders expected to attend the event.

According to a Reuters report, Obama explained on Friday that the action would be taken to protect the US from the outbreak of the disease.

He said, “Folks who are from these countries that have even a marginal risk, or an infinitesimal risk of having been exposed in some fashion, we’re making sure we’re doing screening.”

The United States, Obama said, takes risks from the deadly Ebola virus very seriously hence the planned test for the expected African leaders.

Also, two African leaders have said that they would not attend the meeting because of the outbreak of the Ebola disease in their countries. The leaders are the presidents of Liberia and Sierra Leone, Mrs Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf and Ernest BaiKoroma, respectively.

Meanwhile, professional health bodies and medical experts have condemned Nigeria’s response to the global outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease. They strongly condemned what they described as poor preventive measures put in place by the Federal Government.

Nigeria has recorded the death of an Ebola victim, Patrick Sawyer, a Liberian, who flew into the country on July 20.

EBOLA FEAR GRIPS UK,ASIA!

Health officials in the United Kingdom and Hong Kong, fearing that the outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus in West Africa could go global, are quarantining airline passengers from the region who have shown symptoms of the disease.
The outbreak — the largest in history — has spread across Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria and Sierra Leone and killed at least 672 people, according to the World Health Organization. The disease has no vaccine and no specific treatment. It has a fatality rate of at least 60%.
In the United Kingdom, the Department of Health confirmed Wednesday that a man who flew into Birmingham airport recently from Nigeria via Paris was clear of the virus despite saying he felt feverish.
Newly appointed British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond planned to chair an emergency meeting later Wednesday on how to stop the spread of the virus.
Two American missionaries working with Ebola patients in Liberia have been diagnosed with the virus.
Ken Isaacs, a vice president of Samaritan’s Purse, told The Associated Press that Dr. Kent Brantly — the 33-year-old medical director for the group’s Ebola care center on the outskirts of the Liberian capital of Monrovia — was stable and in very serious condition. “We are hopeful and prayerful,” Isaacs told AP by telephone from the group headquarters in Boone, North Carolina.
