AfterElton Briefs: Tom Lenk Wears It Well, Looking Back at the Louds, Queering the Census, plus Gay Polo Matches!
Plus, Hunky Ryan Phillipe to host SNL, Toni Collette talks about USoT, and Strip-opoly: Not just for drunk college roommates anymore.
Tom Lenk looks like something from the Hellmouth is on his jacket
- Out has a fashion pictorial with prints I'm not bold enough to wear. Fortunately Broadway stars like Wesley Taylor (The Addams Family), Kyle Dean Massey (Next To Normal), and Tom Lenk (above, Rock of Ages), who's growing out of adorkable and straight into handsome.The last page has behind-the-scenes video worth watching.
- BiNet USA has advice on queering the 2010 Census you may want to take a look at. I just got my form Saturday.
- HBO and Gavin Palone are teaming up for a look at the first family of reality television, the Louds. An American Family aired on PBS, and included the coming out of the the Loud family's son, Lance in 1973.
- Broadway Bares XX is trying hard to get your attention, and I still can't get Michael Jensen to send me to New York City on the company's dime to cover it. And there's so much to cover.
Who says Strip-opoly can't be sexy?

- boyculture points us to some troubling quotes from John Cusak about some of the homophobic humor in Hot Tub Time Machine from the upcoming Entertainment Weekly. You may have noticed I hadn't featured much on the movie. That's because the red band trailers were so homophobic I refuse to be party to it. Check back Friday for the Flying Monkey's review
- Christina Aguilera's new single will be "Not Myself Tonight" but the cover art she released today was very much Christina Aguilera.
I'm hoping for more Diirty than circus from this album.

- If you're in Los Angeles tonight, hot little otter Aiden James has a show at 8pm at Room 5
- Tony Kushner's The Intelligent Homosexual's Guide to Capitalism and Socialism With a Key To the Scriptures will play March 22-June 12 2011 at The Public Theater in New York City.
- Joe Solmonese, head of the Human Rights Campaign, has won an award. Sadly, it's for his fashion sense. While in theory, any publicity is good for the cause, the blogoshpere seems to think he should shop less and lobby more.
- Ryan Phillipe will host Saturday Night Live April 17th in support of the Saturday Night Live spinoff movie MacGruber, itself a bad spoof of MacGuyver. Ke$ha will be the musical guest. And now her song is stuck in my head.
Yeah, I'll use any excuse to look at Ryan Phillipe. Even watch SNL.

- Credit Suisse will sponsor a gay polo tournament in Palm Beach, FL April 3, which is kind of laughable because they couldn't find enough gay polo players. So each team gets one heterosexual player, who the New York Post says is the best player on each team. It's a gay polo tournament and we're still picked last.
- Toni Collette talks to Autostraddle.com about how gay the United States of Tara is this season. Hint: It's pretty darn gay by the end of the second episode.
And today's Briefs are brought to you by...
