AfterElton Briefs: Oscar Scraps, Sexual Diversity in Video Games, The Gallagher Family Will Return, and More!

Out Jared Leto-looking The King's Speech producer Iain Canning arrives at the Oscars. He would eventually leave with one.

• We've got some Oscar fallout for you. With all of the hoopla about the "Young and Hip" show hoping to attract more viewers, last night's show was actually lower rated than last year.

• In case you missed it, below you can see the special Oscar promo from Modern Family. "Eat, Pray ... in the Chest!"

• Congrats to AE reader Ty Nolan (Eagledancer), whose short story Dolls is one of the finalists for the NPR 6th Annual Three- Minute Fiction Competition.

• You may be wondering why we didn't post Lady Gaga's music video for "Born This Way" when it premiered today. Unfortunately, due to rights issues, we will be unable to show it to you. I've seen it however, and below you can see an an exact artist rendering of what it looked like. At least ... to me.

• Kill me now. Please ... kill me now. Please, someone ... KILL ME NOW!

• Good news for fans of Showtime's Shameless and Episodes. Both shows have been picked up for a second season. And even though it just began its second season, TV Land's Hot in Cleveland has already been renewed for a third.

• Oh dear. Remember that dreamy, creepy Grease Oscar snippet that James Franco tweeted over the weekend? Well, here's the whole bit, which was cut out of the Oscar telecast because ... it's not good.

• Outsports has the video of a UFC fighter shouting "faggot" at another fighter ... in a promotional video for the sport.
