AfterElton Briefs: We heart Uruguay, Kathy Griffin IS Kate Gosselin, and more!
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.
And today's Briefs are brought to you by... This guy! And we conclude Blast from the Past week with Baywatch star David Chockachi. Yes, he's not in briefs, for which I apologize, but I present this pic as proof that white after Labor Day should never be allowed. Submitted by on Thu, 2009-09-10 17:56. |

Thank you,

Motion Carried.
Wow!
David Chockachi! Wow! He was a hottie of the past... is he doing Death of a Salesman at a dinner theatre in Florida now?

"Being a bitch doesn't necessarily mean you're a bad person."
Last I saw of him, he was on
Last I saw of him, he was on some "celebreality" show on VH1 for former "teen idols" trying to reboot their careers.
He was hotter on the reality show, imo, than on Baywatch. I think men are like fine wine. They just get more attractive as they age!
Ha! I get that "Soapdish" reference!
Wasn't one of the actors who played Kevin Kline's sons in that disastrous "Salesman" production kind of a hottie? (I think it was Biff.)
Nice retro shot of David Chockachi. Can I put in a request for digging up an early-90's shot of a stripped-down William McNamara?
Oh the hotties of our
Oh the hotties of our youth...
You win dback! Your prize is two tickets to see Milton Moorehead in said production!

"Being a bitch doesn't necessarily mean you're a bad person."
Ah, but will I get to see Mr. Fuzzy?
Heh heh heh :)
Mrs. Evans
Wow. I wish that kind of mom for everyone. Thanks for the link!
Lisa Evans
Is the coolest mom ever. Scott and his siblings are very, very lucky.
Wonder if Mr. Evans is just as uber cool...
And where's Derren Brown?
If you're going to have any credibility as an international site, you should have at least mentioned Derren Brown the British illusionist who correctly predicted the Wednesday Lotto numbers on British TV last night. There's an out, evangelically open gay man who's also the best illusionist in the UK. He does something culturally that hits all the headlines in the UK. He does something that would baffle audiences anywhere else in the world. He gets massive TV ratings and he's ignored by AE?
I tried to open a separate forum on this and it was rejected by AE's spam filter, which is fair enough.So I sent feedback directly to AE. But when a gay man who's not in America does something that flummoxes an entire nation - well, it should at least be remarked on by a cultural gay site. I sent you this information many hours ago and the very least you could have done is acknowledge that a gay man did something on TV that no-one else in his field has ever done before anywhere in the world. I specifically said I didn't need to be mentioned, only that it ought to be commented on.
For me it's a happily rare experience with you guys, but I'm desperately disappointed. The story was covered on Queerty for God's sake, but AE ignored it despite being informed of it.
Seriously - get a grip. You're supposed to be the best but you're allowing Queerty to run a story that you should own!
I've truly massively, horrendously hated writing this comment - but I seriously expected better of you guys.
Thanks for writing Darrien. However, your info
never reached us. I checked both the AfterElton comments and the AfterElton editor accounts and there is no email there from you. Nor did any of us receive a PM from you. Given that we have a lot of UK readers, I'm surprised no one else alerted to this news. Best rest assured we didn't purposefully "ignore" this achievement by an out gay man on purpose. Perhaps next time you can give us the benefit of the doubt when posting and ask if we got your email.
We do our best to scour all sources for news, but if you look at the site today, you'll see we posted ten different items -- including our very indepth Primetime Visibility Awards as well as a regular Glee recap and a Glee Facebook recap, a six page article, a liveblog, and five other blog posts. Hopefully our credibility will endure missing Derren's achievement.
Ahem
I tried to post something about this as a separate forum topic. It wasn't accepted because of your spam filter. I followed the system you've set in place in terms of reporting a spam filter complaint. You know as well as I do that if I got completely blanked by the comment/spam filter in the past I've re-directed it to you as the editor. This time I wasn't totally shut down by the system so I prevailed and I was able to send a message saying that even if the news post had nothing to do with me, I had no problem with someone on the editorial team using it as a tip.
I've never asked for accredation in the past and I'm unlikely to start getting pissy about it now. This isn't about my accredation, it's about your system - and when you get round to looking at your system administration logs I hope you'll acknowledge this.
I spend a certain amount of my time not only acknowledging how good you are, but also actively proclaiming it. Please look at some of my recent posts and I'm a major cheerleader for AfterElton.
I posted about Derren Brown and
Another show a few days ago here http://www.afterelton.com/blog/lylemasaki/queerview-gay-television-sep-09-2009
I did not know where else to post about them.
And I appreciate your support. Your email
just sounded as if you believed we were deliberating not acknowledging the info you sent when we just never received it. When you say "Seriously, get a grip" and "I seriously expected better of you guys" it pretty clearly indicates you think we screwed up somehow. I wish the technology were better that your forum thread didn't get blocked as spam.
I'm not sure what message you sent because we never got anything. What account did you send it to? As for the editor@afterelton.com account, it gets deluged with spam that I have to pick through to find the real stuff and I simply didn't see yours there. In the future, I'd encourage you to directly PM myself or Snicks as those get through no problem.
And again, thanks for the support and cheerleading. It means a lot.
According to news that no
According to news that no one should care about, Playboy made an offer to Kate Gosselin to pose for the magazine. Kate Gosselin turned them down, but some people are holding out that she'll appear in Thrown off a Cliff to Rabid Hungry Wolverines and Grizzly Bears Monthly. (Or that she'll be thrown off a cliff to rabid hungry wolverines and grizzly bears.) She turned Hefner down flat, and instead of posing nude will be further exploiting her children and failed marriage (which failed due to her henpecking – let's be honest) for money. Since Kate Gosselin gets $75,000 per episode of
the inane and utterly rotten show she's on, she won't need a payday cash loan anytime soon.
As for rule #2 ...
If you don't have a chest, don't wear a deep v neck.
So, I wear my deep v neck often. :D
