BRITNEY SPEARS has taken a pop at her foul-mouthed ex-hubby KEVIN FEDERLINE.

The singer was dumbstruck after hearing the f-word slip out of her three-year-old son SEAN PRESTON’s mouth when they were chatting recently.

And she blames K-Fed – Sean and JAYDEN JAMES’ fulltime daddy – for failing to keep his language clean in her kids’ presence.

She told Rolling Stone magazine: “The kids are starting to learn words like ‘stupid’ and Preston says the f-word now sometimes. He doesn’t get it from us.

“He must get it from his daddy. I say it, but not around my kids.”

Britney also admitted she feels “like an old person” now she’s consigned her debauched lifestyle to the past.

The Womanizer star suffered a mental meltdown earlier this year before she was rescued from the brink.

She said: “I feel like an old person now. I do! I go to bed at, like, 9.30 every night, and I don’t go out or anything.”

Consequently, Britney’s struggling to find a man.

The singer says on the rare occasion she heads out on a date, she’s accompanied by romance-killing minders.

She added: “One of the dates I had recently, I was accompanied by my assistant Brett and my manager Larry Rudolph’s friend Adam Leber. Right when we got there, we just knew it was just bad.

“He looked like an older version of Harry Potter, but skinnier. So I had to get dessert first.

“And the other date I had, the guy was really, really tall and a lot older.

“We’re trying to ask him questions, like, ‘OK, you’re into martial arts, so what kind of martial arts are you into?’ And he was like, ‘Oh, all kinds.’ So we were just cracking up.”

Annie Lennox & Taylor Swift Attend American Music Awards 2008

The legendary singer and former Eurythmics member Annie Lennox bumped into Taylor Swift at the American Music Award’s Red Carpet. Annie Lennox is looking great after having surgery on her back earlier this year.

I rather see these veteran acts perform now then the singers closer to my age. The reason? It seems they can sing and dance but they can’t do both at the same time, so either you get a good performance with a sucky dance routine or you get a great dance routine with lipsynching not synching well at all.

Again, Annie Lennox, glad to see you up and around and looking great!-Dr.FB Eurythmics

ANNIE LENNOX - LENNOX WOWS AUDIENCE AT AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS

ANNIE LENNOX wowed audience at the American Music Awards with an emotionally-charged performance - just three months after undergoing successful spinal surgery.
The former Eurythmics singer was ordered to endure six months of physiotherapy before doctors expected her to walk properly again - after determining she was suffering from an impinged nerve in August (08).

Lennox's contributions to music were marked before her rousing performance on Sunday (23Nov08) - when she was presented the Award of Merit at the 36th Annual AMAs in Los Angeles - lifting the star-studded audience to their feet.

Standing to take a bow, she was presented the award by pop superstar Justin Timberlake: "The Award of Merit is being given tonight to an artist who means a lot to me personally. There are certain musicians that other musicians love, and she is one of those special artists, held in the highest regard by her peers.

"l love that she's always been on the cutting edge of fashion, she's always looked so so cool and taught us how to look cool. Then there's her humanitarian work. She's been an activist for just causes all over the world, mostly in silent ways that you've never even heard about. She does this from her heart, motivated purely by love."

Imploring the audience to sit, Annie Lennox added, "It's been an incredible journey - music, my friends, my accompaniment through my life, so much of my life. Much of that was with Dave Stewart, of the Eurythmics and it is very important that I say half of the award goes to Dave also.

"Thank you so much for this. I never thought that I would live to see the day that I could be 53-years-old, standing on the stage and so many people have inspired me in this experience and too many to mention."

Annie Lennox joins a long list of music legends including Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Paul MCCartney and Whitney Houston, who've also been honoured with the award.

CRISTIANO RONALDO was branded ‘malicious’ and a ‘bigmouth’ in an attack by two Brazil stars.

The Manchester United idol was accused of trying to break Tiago Silva’s leg as Portugal crashed 6-2 in Brasilia on Wednesday.

Silva stormed: “He’s a malicious guy and if I hadn’t jumped out of the way he would have broken my leg.”

Fluminense defender Silva, linked with a move to Chelsea in January, added: “He just lost it because we snuffed him totally out of the game.

“He had the nerve to say he didn’t touch me but that’s only because I got out of his way.

“Then he realised he was in the wrong and tried to apologise but I wasn’t accepting that.”

Real Madrid ace Marcelo said: “Ronaldo was out of order and a bigmouth. He elbowed me off the ball, then tried to have a shouting match about it.”

Ronaldo Set for Contract Talks

CRISTIANO RONALDO'S agent has confirmed he will hold talks with Manchester United about a new contract.

The Reds Devils hope to end Real Madrid's interest in the Portuguese superstar by tying him down to a long-term deal.

Ronaldo is reported to be wanting around £175,000 a week to stay at Old Trafford.

And a representative from Ronaldo's agents Gestifute confirmed: "It is normal that a footballer wants a deal to go with his status and one that matches his performances on the field.

"But nobody has prepared anything concrete.

"We want to avoid all these rumours in the press and will have contact with United.

"We do predict a meeting with Manchester United to speak about the future of Ronaldo but still there is not an exact date."


Hugh Jackman named "sexiest man alive"

Australian actor Hugh Jackman, 40, was named the "Sexiest Man Alive" by People magazine Wednesday, topping the annual list ahead of James Bond actor Daniel Craig who came in at number two, and past favourites such as Brad Pitt, George Clooney and last year's winner Matt Damon.

"You can't go wrong with Hugh Jackman," People correspondent Michelle Beadle told CBS after revealing the selection. "He's Australian, first of all. He's adorable. He's got one of the best bodies ever. And he's a family man. We all love that.

"He's not on the party scene. He loves his kids, he loves his wife. He likes to stay home and make pancakes. He's almost too perfect!"

Hugh Jackman and his wife of 12-plus years Deborra-Lee Furness, are "a very romantic couple," Beadle added. They have two children - Oscar, 8 and Ava, 6.

Other big names in the list of 16 were Hairspray actor Zac Efron, Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps, actor Javier Bardem, Chinese pianist Lang Lang and football star David Beckham.

Hugh Jackman is this year's 'Sexiest'

We were certain this would be the Year of the Hamm -- "Mad Men" star Jon Hamm -- but a Wolverine from Down Under took People's "Sexiest Man Alive" title for 2008. (George Clooney and Brad Pitt can't win every year.)

"X-Men" hero Hugh Jackman, who stars with Nicole Kidman in the epic "Australia," got the nod for his biceps and his baritone (he starred as flamboyant performer Peter Allen in Broadway's "The Boy from Oz.") "Hugh is tough and romantic at the same time," Kidman says. "Australian men are a different breed. They're rugged and they sweat."

The editors also dwelled on Jackman's devotion to his wife of 12 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, who is eight years his senior.

Keeping the passion alive is easy, Jackman tells People. "She loves the idea of me coming home in costume because it makes her feel like she's having an affair in a good way. When we met, I was cast as a prisoner with tattoos and she'd say, 'Don't take your tattoos off tonight!' and I'd be like, 'All right!'"

The debonair Hamm did make the list, along with Craig, Daniel Craig; a trio of teen dreams, "High School Musical" star Zac Efron, Ed Westwick of "Gossip Girl," and "Twilight" hunk Robert Pattinson; Spanish actor Javier Bardem, sans the "No Country for Old Men" pageboy; swimmer Michael Phelps; Chinese pianist Lang Lang; country singer Blake Shelton; soccer (and underwear ad) icon David Beckham; and TV's Joshua Jackson ("Fringe"), Robert Buckley ("Lipstick Jungle"), Mark-Paul Gosselaar (in spite of his hideous homeless-man shag in "Raising the Bar"), and Blair Underwood ("Dirty Sexy Money").

Scarlett Johansson appears on the December cover of Allure Magazine and gave a few interesting soundbites. She stayed pretty reserved about a couple of things though.

Asked how she met husband Ryan Reynolds (whom she began dating last year), she says, “Nobody knows. It’s private. It’s our story.” She did say this about marriage:

“I always wanted to get married and have kids,” she says. “I just never had any preconceived idea about what that would be like … My life seems to be happening naturally.”

Johansson also zipped her lips about a tattoo on her forearm.

“It’s kind of personal,” the star says. “It’s a sunrise, and it makes me happy when I look at it.”

Asked about whether she had a feud with Lindsay Lohan - the actress, 23, who lost the lead role in The Parent Trap to Lohan when she was 13 says:
“I really don’t know that person. I only met her, like, three times.”

Asked about the incident where Lohan famously scrawled vulgar words about the actress on a Big Apple bathroom stall 2½ years ago.

“That’s what I heard,” Johansson says of the incident. “I don’t know what the motivation was behind that. I remember it was something really vulgar — I mean, shockingly so, like, ‘Whoa, what, who are you?’”

Not everyone in Hollywood has a beef with the actress. Katy Perry, who penned the platinum-certified tune “I Kissed a Girl” after her.

“I had no idea — I should get a cut!” she says. “That’s flattering, but my lips are kind of taken.”

And Woody Allen once called her his muse.

But the Vicky Cristina Barcelona star tells Allure, “I don’t inspire that work that Woody does. I’m just lucky to fit into the ‘young woman’ category in his movies. But make no mistake, I know that if it wasn’t me, it would be someone else.”

Scarlett Johansson - “Allure” December 2008

Scarlett Johansson takes the December 2008 cover of Allure. Here are some great interview snippets via Us:

On not knowing why Lindsay Lohan doesn’t like her: “I really don’t know that person. I only met her, like, three times.” (Scarlett did lose the lead role in The Parent Trap to Lindsay when she was 13.)

On Lindsay scrawling vulgar words about the actress on a NYC bathroom stall 2½ years ago: “That’s what I heard. I don’t know what the motivation was behind that. I remember it was something really vulgar — I mean, shockingly so, like, ‘Whoa, what, who are you?’”

On Woody Allen once calling her his muse: “I don’t inspire that work that Woody does. I’m just lucky to fit into the ‘young woman’ category in his movies. But make no mistake, I know that if it wasn’t me, it would be someone else.”

On how she met husband Ryan Reynolds: “Nobody knows. It’s private. It’s our story.”

On the tattoo on her forearm: “It’s kind of personal. It’s a sunrise, and it makes me happy when I look at it.”

Beyonce on Oprah: Who is Sasha Fierce?

This afternoon, Beyonce sat down with Oprah and talked about all things Sasha Fierce, Hamburger Helper, and her role as Etta James in Cadillac Records. Oprah attempted to get some wedding info out of her, but that’s still a private affair. When will that veil be lifted? I’m guessing at some point after Beyonce pops out a baby Bee or Jay.

Yeah, Oprah asked Beyonce if she was pregnant.

Beyonce Chats it Up with Oprah

Nope. That should be fairly obvious with a new album that’s going to have Sasha performing from Tennessee to Shanghai. Once that’s a wrap, Sasha will make an encore performance at home and you’ll see those big belly candids floating around the web. Then the privacy which the ‘mystery couple’ loves will be a little more challenging to maintain.

There is no way they’ll be able to tuck those baby pictures away from the public. That’s when you hit em with, ‘So how was the wedding?’..

Beyonce Reveals Wedding Details

Beyonce Knowles and her rap-star hubby Jay-Z are one of Hollywood's rare couples that prefer not to parade their romance around for the press.

So when the two tied the knot last April in front of a celebrity guest list that included Gwyneth Paltrow and Coldplay's Chris Martin, the couple-- not surprisingly-- managed to keep the press guessing when they exchanged vows atop a NYC apartment building.

But if anyone can get a blushing bride to spill, it's the queen of media herself, Oprah Winfrey. On Thursday's show to promote her new album, I Am Sasha Fierce, Beyonce finally revealed a few sparse details about her wedding day.

"It was very private, and I can say outside it was paparazzi and it was madness, and inside it was really beautiful," Beyonce told Oprah, adding that it's taken her a while to realize the value of keeping her personal life her own.

"I had to really learn how to have boundaries and how to have balance," she said. "It's something that I have never really talked about, and I still feel like it was difficult--and it still is--because I'm so excited about it. But it's important that I keep things that are pure and real in perspective and I keep it separate from my performance life."

Beyonce told Oprah it feels great to be married but added that it's also important to make a committment to yourself before walking down the aisle.

"Make sure you have your own life before you're someone else's wife," she said.

Meanwhile, Beyonce tells Seventeen Magazine's Dec./Jan. issue that she consciously waited until she was of a certain age to get married. "Before the age of 25 I would never get married," the singer, now 27, says. "I feel like you have to get to know yourself, know what you want, spend some time by yourself and be proud of who you are before you can share that with someody else."

She adds, I really don't believe that you will love the same thing when you're 20 as you do at 30."

Paula Goodspeed is American Idol suicide? The former TV show contestant was found dead outside of the home of Paula Abdul earlier today in what appears to be a suicide. Read more and see pictures and video here.

Paula Goodspeed is American Idol contestant that police have found dead outside of the home of Paula Abdul. Goodspeed auditioned for season five of the reality show and did not make it to Hollywood, despite her efforts singing Proud Mary. After her rejection, Goodspeed said that in hindsight she was not ready to put herself out there at the time.

“It’s very hard reading such awful things being written about yourself…or hearing things being said…not like a lot of people would understand what it’s like having so many haters, just because I made the mistake of trying out for a singing competition before I was ~even~ ready vocally, emotionally and physically. I have to believe there is something good about me…”


Paula Goodspeed is Paula Abdul’s Fan

As a biography, she first came on the radar at American Idol because of her Austin, Texas audition for the show in 2005. See that video below. She wore an interesting pink outfit and declared herself a fan of Paula Abdul. Apparently she was not kidding.

Ms. Goodspeed reportedly has a history of mental illness which caused her family concern for her safety.

On her MySpace page profile, she describes herself as 28 years old, originally born in Jamaica. Other media sources have described her as 30 years old from Thousand Oaks, California, which is where she now resides. She also self-describes herself as a Wiccan who seems to have an affinity for the Wizard of Oz movie. This is not the same Paula Goodspeed who is a real estate agent in San Bernadino County.

During the audition, Ms. Goodspeed gave her own rendition of “Proud Mary,” which was once sung by Paula. Simon made a seering comment in his usual style about her braces that was not forgotten: “How did she get through the metal detector?”

She writes about the post-audition trauma and that specific comment in one of her blog entries:

It’s very hard reading such awful things being written about yourself…..or hearing things being said….. not like alot of people would understand what it’s like having so many haters , just because I made the mistake of trying out for a singing competition before I was even ready vocally, emotionally and physically.

I have to believe there is something good about me…..

Simon made that comment about my braces 5 months ago in Sept. 05 and now …since the show aired this month (Feb. 06), theres been soo many people bashing me for having braces, as if “I am the only person on national television that wears braces”!!!!!!

I think some people just need to grow up…or save that kind of stuff for the playground.

Soo, thats my story!! Better luck next time, I guess……



Adrienne Bailon is the latest Disney darling to find herself the victim of a racy photo scandal.

Partially-nud* photos of “Cheetah Girls” star have been leaked online.

According to Bailon’s rep, Jonathan Jason, the photos were stolen from the personal computer of the actress, so it now she has initiated a lawsuit against whoever is responsible.

“These photos were taken in private. Adrienne will be pursuing legal action against the person sending these private photos out,” Bailon’s rep said in a statement.

In the images, Bailon, 25, is seen wearing a bra and nothing else. In another leaked photo the actress can bee seen posing to show his backside.

Bailon says she is “deeply sorry” to fans.

It is not the first time that a star of Disney is caught in a controversy. Both Vanessa Hudgens and Miley Cyrus were invloved in racy photo scandals over the past year.

Cheetah Girls Strip Show (Photos) Adrienne Bailon and a "Victoria's Secret" Lawsuit

She is one of the Disney girls and yet again one of them is nude online and saying they are sorry. Adrienne Bailon has leaked nud* pictures on the webs now. Is she wearing "Victoria's Secret" well she does have a bra on in one of the photos. As a sidenote - there is a lawsuit against "Victoria's Secret" as according to a report from the UK Daily Telegraph a number of ladies have claimed that underwear from the leading lingerie firm, which uses supermodels including Giselle Bundchen and Heidi Klum, made them ill.

Back to our little Disney princess, she says that she had her computer stolen and it appears that on her computer were several racy photos of a semi-clad and nude Adrienne Bailon.

Immediately there were rumors of the full on s*x tape and some speculated that we were headed down a road like Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton. It might be more like her fellow disney girl Vanessa Hudgens.


Former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer will not face any criminal charges for his role in a prostitution scandal which led to his resignation eight months ago.

Spitzer was caught on a wiretap arranging for 22-year-old prostitute Ashley Alexandra Dupré, aka Kristen, to travel from New York to Washington for a rendezvous at the Mayflower Hotel on the eve of St. Valentine’s Day.


U.S. Attorney Michael Garcia said Thursday that an investigation had found no evidence that Eliot Spitzer or his office had misused public or campaign funds for prostitution.

“On March 6, 2008, this office announced the filing of criminal charges related to an international prostitution ring known as the Emperors Club VIP”, Garcia said.


“The investigation which led to those charges began when this office learned of payments made in a questionable manner by former Governor Eliot Spitzer to a bank account in the name ‘QAT Consulting.’


“After the investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigation Division, the office determined that the QAT Consulting account and a similar account at another financia linstitution had been used to launder more than $1 million worth of criminal proceeds derived from the Emperors Club VIP’s prostitution business”, Garcia said.


Eliot Spitzer has acknowledged to the U.S. Attorney’s office that he was a client of, and made payments to, the Emperors Club VIP. Our investigation has shown that on multiple occasions, Eliot Spitzer arranged for women to travel from one state to another state to engage in prostitution. After a thorough investigation, this office has uncovered no evidence of misuse of public or campaign funds.

“In addition, we have determined that there is insufficient evidence to bring charges against Eliot Spitzer for any offense relating to the withdrawal of funds for, and his payments to, the Emperors Club VIP.


“In light of the policy of the Department of Justice with respect to prostitution offenses and the longstanding practice of this office, as well as Spitzer’s acceptance of responsibility for his conduct, we have concluded that the public interest would not be further advanced by filing criminal charges in this matter”, Garcia said.


In a statement released by Eliot Spitzer, the disgraced former Governor said that he appreciated “the impartiality and thoroughness of the investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office and I acknowledge and accept responsibility for the conduct it disclosed. I resigned my position as Governor because I recognized that conduct was unworthy of an elected official. I once again apologize for my actions, and for the pain and disappointment those actions caused my family and the many people who supported me during my career in public life”.


According to an affidavit filed in the case, Spitzer had arranged for a “tryst” with Dupré allegedly having paid for her train tickets from New York to Washington, cab fare, hotel room and other expenses. Investigators say he had met her before for s*x, perhaps as many as seven times, and had paid out perhaps as much as $80,000 over the past 10 years to prostitutes.


Ashley Alexandra Dupre at 22 is only four years older than the oldest of Spitzer’s three daughters.

Spitzer, aka Client #9, was snared the sex sting which resulted in the arrest and conviction of four individuals for their roles as organizers and managers of the prostitution ring called the Emperors Club VIP.


Four people have pleaded guilty in the operation of the prostitution ring. Prosecutors say the four used the Emperors Club to arrange connections between wealthy male clients and more than 50 prostitutes in, among other places, New York City, Washington, D.C.; Los Angeles, Miami, Florida; London and Paris. The defendants charged the clients fees ranging from $1,000 to more than $5,500 per hour for prostitution services.


The Emperors Club allegedly took in more than $1 million in illicit proceeds from its international prostitution business. It accepted payment in the form of cash, American Express charges, wire transfers, and money orders, prosecutors said.

Eliot Spitzer had resigned on March 12 following the revelation of him being caught on a wiretap in connection with the prostitution ring. He had never publicity admitted his involvement with the Emperor Club until his statement on Thursday. 11-06-08

VOTING SYSTEM FEELS STRAIN OF MASSIVE TURNOUT

Voting problems surfaced in several areas today as electors turned out in droves to be confronted with long queues and malfunctioning machines.
A record number of voters was expected to descend on more than 7,000 election jurisdictions across the country.

"We have a system that is traditionally set up for low turnout," said Tova Wang of the government watchdog group Common Cause. "We're going to have all these new voters, but not a lot of new resources."

Americans have kept a close eye on election problems recently. In 2000, the results of the election were held up until the US Supreme Court ultimately decided to halt a recount over contested votes in Florida, leaving George Bush the winner. In Ohio, there was turmoil in 2004 over delays and failures.

Today voters had to use paper ballots because of problems with electronic voting machines in some New Jersey precincts. And in New York, many people began queuing as early as 4 am at some polling places.

Poll worker John Ritch in Chappaqua, New York, said: "By 7.30 this morning, we had as many as we had at noon in 2004."

Governor Ed Rendell urged voters in Pennsylvania to "hang in there" as state and country officials braced for a huge turnout. More than 160 people were lined up to vote by the time polls opened at First Presbyterian Church in Allentown.

Hundreds converged on polling precincts in Missouri, a crucial battleground state. Norma Storms, a 78-year-old resident of Raytown, said her driveway was filled with cars left by voters who couldn't get into nearby parking lots.

"I have never seen anything like this in all my born days," she said. "I am just astounded."

In Virginia, where a Democrat has not won the presidential race since 1964, several counties experienced paper jams and faulty touch-screen devices. In Richmond, a precinct opening was delayed because the person who had the keys overslept. Hundreds of people thronging the branch library cheered when its doors finally opened.

Ohio, which experienced extreme voting problems in the last presidential race, had some jammed paper problems in Franklin County.
Perhaps the most bizarre barrier to voting was a car which hit a wooden power pole in St. Paul, Minnesota, blacking out two polling locations for an hour.

Lawsuits alleging voter suppression had already surfaced in Virginia, a hotly contested state. A judge refused yesterday to extend poll hours or add voting machines to black precincts in some areas. The National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People, in a federal lawsuit, demanded those changes, saying minority neighbourhoods would experience overwhelming turnout and there weren't enough electronic machines.

US District Judge Richard Williams denied the motion but ordered election officials to publicise that people still queuing when the polls closed would be allowed to cast ballots.

John McCain's campaign sued the Virginia electoral board hours before polls opened, trying to force the state to count late-arriving military ballots from overseas.

Mr McCain asked a federal judge to order state election officials to count absentee ballots mailed from abroad that arrive as late as November 14.

USS Hornet: splashdown

I'm watching the live broadcast of Ghost Hunters at Fort Delaware while enjoying the trick or treaters at my front door. Since Halloween is a night for telling stories, I'll tell you the true story that TAPS didn't tell you during this week's broadcast of the USS Hornet investigation.

The Hornet's proud history includes retrieving the capsule carrying the astronauts of America's first lunar landing mission, Apollo 11. Four months later, the Hornet also retrieved the astronauts of Apollo 12.

The history at the USS Hornet, now a museum, includes this:

Apollo 11 splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on July 24 at 5:50 a.m. local time, after travelling over 950,000 miles in a little more than 8 days. The splashdown point was 920 miles southwest of Honolulu and 13 miles from the USS Hornet.

Columbia floated down under its 3 orange & white parachutes, hitting the water just before dawn and coming to rest in a Stable 2 (upside down) position. The astronauts triggered the release of the three flotation bags, which righted the CM in about 7 minutes. The first member of the UDT-11 recovery team jumped from helicopter #64 into the water and attached a sea anchor to the CM to keep it from drifting. Three more UDT swimmers then jumped in and attached the flotation collar to stabilize the CM in the choppy water. They inflated and positioned two life rafts - one for biological decontamination and the other for helicopter hoist operations.

The possibility of the astronauts bringing a dangerous Moon germ back to Earth was considered remote, but not impossible. At this point in the recovery, the UDT decontamination specialist, LT Clancy Hatleberg, jumped into the water from helicopter #66 and swam to one of the rafts. He donned a special Biological Isolation Garment (BIG suit) and then handed 3 other BIG suits into the spacecraft so the Apollo 11 crew could put them on.

...Hatleberg signaled CDR Don Jones, pilot of helicopter #66 to position his SeaKing for the astronaut retrieval process. When the helicopter was hovering 40 feet above and slightly to the left of the spacecraft, the air crewmen in the cargo hold lowered a Billy Pugh rescue net down to the raft. The 3 astronauts were hoisted up one at a time and given a verbal physical check by NASA flight surgeon Dr. Bill Carpentier. When all 3 were aboard, the helicopter flew 1/2 mile back to the Hornet and landed on the flight deck. President Nixon and his staff watched intently from the ship's Flag Bridge.

Once Recovery One's engines were shut down and it was configured for shipboard handling, all but one member of the SeaKing's crew exited. With the 3 astronauts and NASA doctor in back, it was towed onto elevator #2. "Helo 66" was lowered into hangar bay #2 and towed to a position adjacent to the Mobile Quarantine Facility (MQF). The astronauts exited into bright TV lights and cheers of hundreds of ship's crewmen. They walked briskly about 30 feet to the Mobile Quarantine Facility, where they were locked in.
