AfterElton Briefs: "True Blood", Glampires, Dieux du Stade, and more.
We know he can sing with fangs in his mouth.
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.
- Proving it's never too early to cash in, Adam Lambert (above) broke out his "Glampire" costume early and showed some fang for the Party City Halloween Party. And speaking of Adam, he just released the cover for his upcoming album.

- Augusten Burroughs, out author of Running With Scissors, has inked a deal with CBS and Catalyst Films (Ashton Kutcher) to develop his novel Dry for a Showtime series.
- Alan Ball got interviewed by the Advocate about True Blood Season Three, and dropped a bunch of spoilers. He also promised more skin from Ryan Kwanten this season, which I support completely.
Still looks like a devil to me.
- Like the AfterElton Editor-In-Chief Michael Jensen, the folks at JustJared have seen the next episode of Glee, "Wheels." Unlike the bossman, they shared a bunch of spoilers, and at least one item gets crossed off my personal wish list for the show.
- Above you can watch Joy Behar take Joe the Plumber to task about his statements about not leaving his children alone with gays. Joy is turning her show into a one woman crusade for us.
I'm not saying he can't play the game, but he makes most models put on a parka.
And today's Halloween Briefs are brought to you by...
Batman!

Speaking of Adam Lambert....
He released a pic of his album cover over at his official website.
Um yea.....thoughts?
Thanks, Javi!
I'll let you know
I'll let you know - as soon as I get all the glitter washed out of my eyes. I'm currently blinded by that.
Seriously - I'd seen it shortly after I turned in Briefs. And I'm old enough to have seen similar cover pics before, many years ago. I liked the music then, so I'm holding judgement.
I thoought he had an S&M photoshoot for this a while back - where'd the glitter come from? I hadn't seen it.
Hetero'd
Hello, Ziggy Stardust!
I actually think Kelly Clarkson's last album cover was more Photoshoped than this.
Ah, well. Photoshop or no, Adam is really cute.
Strange, I've seen that face before.
(the title of this reply must be sung ala Grace Jone's Libertango.)
Ziggy Stardust and Boy George had a baby and it was Adam Lambert. I'm not dissapointed.
Adam L is the lovechild of Boy George and Ziggy.
Adam and The Holograms
I love Adam, but this is truly truly truly outrageous!
Plain brown wrapper anyone?
It has that "call now, girls are waiting... (must be 18 to call)" late night tv ad vibe.
It's not controversial, just awful. I hope they didn't pay much.
i feel like i'm looking at something from the
i feel like i'm looking at something from the 70's-80's.....
That's Adam's album cover? REALLY? SERIOUSLY?
yikes
I also thought of the XANADU cover...seeing as that was pretty much the only album from the 80's i listened to obsessively.
Uncomfortably close to Poison for my taste.
Oh that's so bad
So many different decades to choose from
Me, I thought, okay, that's the worst album cover of 1982, right?
I mean, really? THAT is the best they could do? Have we seen the cover for Kris Allen's album?
Kris Allen's looks like any bland/normal/snoozer-ic album cover
....it's Adam who bothered to have fun with his album cover (given its not the best album cover in the world).
Kris Allen's Album Cover:

Pierre et Gilles
the cover looks very much like what the French artist duo Pierre et Gilles is famous for. However with photoshop nowdays most pictures look like they are treated with extra bright colors to give them a glowing, kitschy and iconic look.
Ah the Brief's guy!!!
Its been a long long time since I've been able to say anything about the Brief's guy b/c they all (or at least their brief's have) all been quite normal, but this was awesome!!! OMG that's hot! Call me shallow, but that is just so sexy as Batman underwear remind me of myself in my youth, so its just......OMG.....OMG... It's just hot!!! I don't know if anybody else will feel as strongly (you see Batman is my favorite superhero, and when I was in high school, me and ex-boyfriend would fight over who was better, Superman or Batman? He said Superman could fly, but I said Bruce Wayne could buy me anything in the world, so Batman won it for me, hands down! Who cares about going around really fast to save humanity when you're FILTHY STINKING RICH!!!...but I digress). Man, that brief's guy brought back memories, and I hope *crosses fingers* we have a week long Halloween themed Brief's section ;)~
Ed, that just made my day, I want you to know!!!!!

Glad you liked it!
OMG!
Worst. Album. Cover. Of. The. Year! The music better be worth the agony of the cover.

Finally!
A briefs guy that is hot!
Thank you.
Adam Lambert Fabulous Cover
I think the album cover is gorgeous, very hyperglam space alien.
As someone posted above, definitely a Pierre et Gilles feel to it.
I have a lot of their posters so I love the surreal sparkle glam thing.
Can't wait to hear his single.
I agree...
It's a gorgeous picture. But I have to say I haven't bought an album/cd for a very long time. :) I carry my IPod everywhere. But will certainly be checking the music out.
Also I have never wanted to be a rugby ball so badly before. Damn.
wow
That album cover is Hard Nose The Highway bad. At least that album had the benefit of good music. I really hope that Adam's album is good enough to make up for that cover.
It's great that Bea Arthur's estate gave that money to the Ali Forney Center. What an amazing woman. This makes me love her even more.
Holy Briefs, Batman!
I'm sorry, Baz Luhrman, but you just lost #1 Brief Guy to today's Bat Hotness.
Adam's CD cover is very ugly :(
Very Glam
I like the idea of Glam, but this picture looks too Pink circa 2002, not 70s Glam and Im not sure that is such a good thing.
Well, I like that he is taking risks and that is a good thing.
I an not sure
that an album cover can be a career killer but if there were such a thing this would be it. OMG who did the artwork, some high school fan girl? Manga becomes mangia.
That's all I am saying...
INSIDEGUY
Adam looks like...
Elvira, aka Cassandra Peterson...
Elvira's alter ego, Cassandra Peterson, also has a movie in post-production:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1307858/
This is directed by San Francisco's own drag celebrity/midnight movie hostess, Peaches Christ, and it's produced by Darren Stein, the director of "Jawbreaker." I had a lot of fun as an extra!
(and don't let Thomas Dekker's participation dampen the fun. He made an appearence at Peaches' screening of "Jawbreaker," singing an original song he wrote for the occassion, and he did so AGAINST HIS AGENT'S WISHES. So maybe it's time to start cutting him some slack)
IT'S GONNA BE A BLAST!
How nice of him
Bea and the Ali Forney Center
Terrific news, I've volunteered at Ali Forney. They make the budget they do have stretch, but the needs of LGBT homeless teens far outstrip their current capacity. One horrible unintended consequence of the otherwise positive develoment of gay youth coming ouy at younger ages is that some are being rejected and thrrown out by their famlies while still in their early teens.
Bea truly is a golden girl.
it was a benefit actually
FYI, the Party City event was a benefit for the Boys and Girls Club of America, so he didn't "cash in." He met with the kids during the day an performed at the party in the evening.
I LOVE the cover.
Actually, I love Adam's cover
haha, i was wondering when you would chime in
haha, i was wondering when you would chime in about the album cover snicks.
feeling better? :-)
I think we're alone, now.
Doesn't seem to be anyone around. ;Þ
Feeling better, Big Guy?
Nice to see you again Snicks
I was worried there for a while. Thought we might not see you for another month or two. How would we get through the liveblogs?
Rest alot and take 2 hugs a day.
By the way, LOOOOOOVE Adam's cover. very arty.
Live Long and Prosper
I'm also getting a Kirstie

Elvira Mistress of the Dark is one of the best movies ever
Wowza...
You can keep Bill and Eric, I'll never stop being team Jason Stackhouse. He did not get near enough screen time this past season, and I was not loving his whole Fellowship of the Sun plot-line.
I know he's little but a piece of meat, but sometimes isn't that enough?
On a separate note, as little as I care about Twilight (the other vampire thing), I can't help but find Taylor Lautner dragging me toward it. Even though I'm only 23, I feel like a creepy old man. He hits 18 in Feb. Then I'll feel less dirty. (and no, I didn't know that without checking Wiki, thank god!)
I wonder
Adam Lambert Album Cover...
little surprise for me cause i think he will make a cover like magazine "Rolling Stone".(Wild & Rock look.).I think i need to change a football channel to rugby channel.

Can I hate the cover and...
..still be a fan? I'm noticing that in order to be a fan of Adam you have to be "all in". Either you love everything about him or you're against him.
I think he's very talented. Love his voice and his singing style. I'm not a fan of the cover at all. Won't stop me from buying it.
*-----------*
It really doesn't get any more adorkable than this: Video
Thank Microsoft for donating $$$ to Approve 71 in Washington...use Bing.com for a week.

Don't judge an album by its cover...
That cover is hideous in my opinion, looks like an internet fan photo. Oh well, just confirms that Adam's style and music are not for me.
Personally I thought Ryan Kwanten and rugby boy were WAY hotter than the briefs guy. Hope that they aren't choosing players base on looks though.
At least rugby boy knows how to handle some balls.
