Can’t be too careful…
Paranoid or just taking precautions? With the spread of the Ebola virus a hot topic in today’s news, a woman was snapped in full hazmat gear while waiting to board a commercial flight from Washington Dulles airport (but for some reason, she thought all the stuff she’s going to touch later on is perfectly safe from picking up any germs if kept in a JCPenny bag…). Via DailyMail:
Ebola fears in America reached a whole new level on Wednesday, when a passenger at Washington, DC’s Dulles Airport was seen wearing a partial-Hazmat suit while waiting for a flight.
The unidentified woman was seen sitting in an airport lounge, wearing a transparent blue plastic suit, on the same say a second nurse was diagnosed with the deadly disease in Dallas, Texas. The suit did not fully cover her arms, leaving her wrists exposed.
The photographer, who submitted the picture to the Daily Caller, did not approach the woman so it’s unclear whether the passenger was wearing the suit as a joke or was generally concerned about catching Ebola.
America’s ‘patient zero’ Thomas Eric Duncan flew into Texas last month from Liberia, with a layover at Dulles, but health officials say he was not showing symptoms of the virus at that point and therefore unable to spread the disease.
However, Amber Vinson, the second nurse to contract the disease after treating Duncan, flew on a commercial flight with a low-grade fever on Monday, the day before she admitted herself to the hospital with further symptoms of the virus.
The CDC confirmed today that they let her board the flight, since her temperature was below the threshold of 100.4F. But the health organization’s Director Thomas Frieden initially said she should not have been on a commercial flight, after having treated Duncan in the first ‘high-risk’ days of his stay at Texas Health Presbyterian hospital.
Well when the CDC is letting people they know to be infected with the disease board commercial flights like it ain’t isht…this doesn’t exactly seem like the worst idea.

Funny…she actually earned three dollars and six dimes.
Hate it or love it?
Eff a Jenner jawn!
Newly-single Tyga has been kicking it heavily with“innocent friend” Kylie Jenner for the past few weeks, inciting rumors that the two are getting serious — regardless of what the law has to say about it.
But Tyga may have traded-in his underage rebound for the familiar touch of his former-fiancee (and full-grown woman) Blac Chyna. Right on the heels of his rumored hot date with the littlest Jenner, the King Of Diamonds alumna posted (and soon deleted) the below pic of Tyga kissing her on the neck, with a caption semi-ripped from Nikki Minaj’s “Anaconda.” Is she letting lil Kylie know what the deal is?
But what does Tyga have to say about a possible reunion? Hit the flip to find out…
The MMA Fighter who burst into his ex-girlfriend’s home and beat her within an inch of her life is having a hard time in jail, apparently. He made a near-successful suicide attempt on Tuesday evening before guards found and resuscitated him. Via ESPN:
Former MMA fighter War Machine is in medical isolation in a Las Vegas jail after a suicide attempt earlier this week, police confirmed Thursday, according to multiple reports.
A Clark County Detention Center guard found War Machine, formerly known as Jonathan Koppenhaver, on Tuesday night after he tried to hang himself, according to authorities. Police said Koppenhaver was unresponsive when found.
Koppenhaver’s attorney, Brandon Sua, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that the fighter’s vital signs had “completely stopped” and that he was “pretty much dead” when found. Sua also said officials found “multiple” suicide notes in Koppenhaver’s cell.
Koppenhaver, 32, is being held without bond on charges of attempted murder, domestic battery by strangulation, first-degree kidnapping and sexual assault, stemming from an alleged incident involving his ex-girlfriend and adult film actress Christy Mack on Aug. 8 at her Las Vegas residence. The professional mixed martial artist faces the possibility of life in prison.
A preliminary hearing had been scheduled for Friday, but the Review-Journal reported that lawyers told a judge Wednesday that they wanted to try negotiate with prosecutors.
Koppenhaver was extradited to Las Vegas from Ventura County, California, on Aug. 30, after he was arrested in a Los Angeles suburb.
Sua told the Review-Journal that his client’s depression and anxiety had “increased since his August arrest.”
SMH.
Tina & Tunechi forever…
Ever since Tina started turning up with Tunechi this summer, all of Wayne’s ghosts of babymama past have been teaming up against the new(ish) chick in town.
In case you don’t quite have the patience of all that, here’s what the lyrics in question say:
They be hatin’ on my girl, though
And they wish they was the b-tch they’re hatin’
Salutations to my old hoes
And thank you for your participation
No chaser for my girl though
She go harder than me on occasion
Gettin’ wasted with my girl
Then we 69 ’til we need ventilation
You don’t know about it
Gotta open new accounts cause the others overcrowded
Gotta open up the stores when they’re closed when we shoppin’
For my girl, wear the clothes that ain’t nobody rockin’
She so bad, I don’t know what to do with her
I know just what to do in her
Homies hit me up, they said they’re goin’ out tonight
I said I’m with my girl, tonight I can’t f-ck with you n-ggas
I’ma take kare of her
Pure poetry. But is he taking shots at Nivea, Sarah, Toya, Candace Cabrera, and whomever else is in his massive mix with that verse? Via NecoleBitchie:
Since Tunechi and Christina Milian have been out with their relationship, his babies’ mamas and exes have been directly and subliminally voicing their displeasure over the union. For instance, Nivea, who has a son with Wayne, definitely made it clear that she’s not feeling the two being together, and Wayne’s other baby’s mother Sarah Vivian has also thrown some timely shade towards Milian on Instagram.
Over the summer, Wayne’s ex (or Girl of the month), Flavor of Love star Candace Cabrera, subtweeted that Christina was a “has been” who hasn’t had a hit ["Dip It Low"] in a decade and that she was being played by the rapper.
Well, all that drama hasn’t been falling on deaf ears and blind eyes because now Wayne is putting his exes on blast for “hating” on Tina Turn Up.
The rapper dropped a new song last night called “Take Kare,” with Young Thug and raps that women (including some of his exes) are just jealous his girl is where they want to be and living the life they want to live.
Now the crazy part of all this is that just last month, Wayne reportedly flew out his ex-fiancée, model Dhea Sodano, along with his daughter on a private jet to help him celebrate his 32nd birthday on his actual birthday. Days prior, Christina threw him a party at Playhouse.
Hmmm, well it sounds like it could be a shot at everyone, but possibly just more of the general “my bish bad” talk Wayne is known for nowadays.
Who killed it??
All that Shmoney dancing, for nothing?

We almost forgot that these two were still technically married
Via RadarOnline
More than two years after Heidi Klum filed for divorce from husband Seal, the gorgeous model is a single woman once again.
RadarOnline.com can exclusively report that the couple’s divorce was finalized on October 14.
The singer, 51 and the model mogul, 41, who were married for seven years before announcing their shocking split in January 2012, share four children Leni, 10, Henry, 9, Johan, 8, and Lou, 5.
The Project Runway hostess moved on from her ex long ago: After breaking up with family bodyguard Martin Kristen, she began dating playboy Vito Schnabel, 27.
We have no doubt that Seal will find himself another Becky to place on an ivory pedestal, but the real question is will we ever see Heidi hand-in-hand with another tall nubian king?

The Doggfather would have a field day with these pics…
After a long week of battling bitter azz Snoop Dogg over social media, bubble-gum rapper Iggy Azalea was seen looking tired and worn out as she ran errands around Los Angeles.
The Aussie MC, real name Amethyst Amelia Kelly, was photographed by pesky paparazzi getting out of her Benz G-wagon wearing a black tee, dirty “spring break” flip flops, and a pair of orange Nike shorts so short and tight that her poor lil’ box was probably gasping for air.

Did you believe Joseline was knocked up for real?
Friends are now saying she’s not actually toting a gut full of Stevie.
Via Sandra Rose reports:
A source close to reality TV stars Joseline “Jose” Hernandez and Stevie J reached out to Sandrarose.com this morning to say Joseline is not pregnant.
The source said Joseline, Stevie J, and Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta producer Mona Scott-Young manufactured the pregnancy hoax to keep the reality stars relevant.
Joseline showed up to ATL Live On the Park event dressed in very unmaternal attire. In one photo, Stevie J and singer Johnny Gill covered Joseline’s abdomen with their hands in the universal sign for pregnancy. But her tummy is as flat as a pancake
So is she, or isn’t she?
