Following this assortment of carefully-selected news items, interested readers can find a refreshing pic of a hot man in underwear after the jump. Yes, we're serious.

• Sacha Baron Cohen's boundary-pushing gay-themed Bruno has reportedly gotten an NC-17, partly for the gaysecks. To be fair, Borat also got the ratings smackdown and wound up still having the most graphic genitals-on-face scene of the past 20 years, so we've still got reason to hope.

• NYC bar rag HX has the skinny on the man behind the oft-imitated "Single Ladies" dance routine: Sashay, Jontè.

• For those of you still waiting for the official cancelation of Lipstick Jungle: The other stiletto has dropped.

• Above: Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog recently nabbed a host of awards at the Streamys, and Neil Patrick Harris (who was also the event's host) was visibly thrilled with the wins.

• Apparent musician Juelz Santana, who apparently recently said that all gossip bloggers who hate on him are "gay", has retracted his statement and now says that they are all merely "bitches". I've consulted my blogosphere Venn diagram and determined that this pretty much covers everybody, with considerable overlap.

• Access Hollywood has a lengthy sneak peek at Little Ashes, which looks to have enough repressed gay longing to fill an entire season of Smallville.
