The French Open, Eurovision's (frequently naked) winner, Australia's out diver, and more!

Twenty-year old Aussie diver Matthew Mitcham came out months before the Beijing Olympics in an interview with the Sydney Morning Herald. He's the first out Aussie Olympic athlete and will hopefully up the number out athletes at Beijing to more than the paltry eleven at the last Olympic games. And, hopefully, he'll get to bring his partner Lachlan along.


Dima Bilan

Russian popstar Dima Bilan took the top spot at the Eurovision contest in Serbia. I'd never heard of him before, but apparently he's fairly well-known in certain circles. No doubt, the fact he's so willing to drop trou has helped garner him attention. After the jump we've included a racier (and potentially NSFW) pic, if you're curious.

Also after the jump, pics from the French Open and the B-52s sing on The Today Show.

No major upsets at the French Open so far with Roger Federer, David Nalbandian, James Blake and Novak Djovic all making it through the first round on the men's side.

Finally, the B52s didn't take Memorial Day, dropping by The Today Show to sing a song or two.

And going back down under, AfterElton.com reader AussieDingo reports he was pleasantly surprised when he got his copy of The Courier-Mail/Sunday Mail, the TV Guide insert included an interview with out celebrity Tim Campbell. What really struck AussieDingo was the normally conservative (and ocassionally homophobicP Courier-Mail mentioned Tim's boyfriend like it was no big deal. Tsk, tsk. What's the world coming to? Someone alert the AFA right now!
