AfterElton Briefs: The "Noah's Arc" movie gets a release date, John Amaechi's Olympic blogging, and more!

In a continued effort to bring you all that is important in the world of gay entertainment and ensure that you are being spoon-fed images of gorgeous, commoditized manflesh, we present the newly-minted AfterElton Briefs. Following the usual 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.

• Good news for Noah's Arc fans! The feature NA film, Jumping the Broom, will hit theaters October 24th (in limited distribution, natch). For updates and cities, check out the movie's website.

• This Out article about the first gay couple to be married in Palm Springs is classic rubbernecking material. Wait, Paul and Dean think that leather guys, drag queens and transgender individuals are "bad examples" of the LGBT community ... while they're the ones getting photographed wearing matching doily-pants?

• By contrast, this interview from the L.A. Times with Simon Doonan and Jonathan Adler about their upcoming wedding is positively charming. (Like we expected less.)

• Best Week Ever has compiled the 10 Most Inappropriate "Touch My Body" covers. Yes, some of them are by men or those who will someday be men.

• I guess this is hardly news, but I think Morrissey needs a hug.

• Always-entertaining out NBA Hall of Famer John Amaechi is blogging from Beijing, giving a rare gay's-eye view of the Olympics.

And today's Briefs are brought to you by...

This guy!
