In a continued effort to bring you all that is important in the world of gay entertainment and ensure that you are being spoon-fed images of gorgeous, commoditized manflesh, we present the newly-minted AfterElton Briefs. Following the usual 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.

  • Yesterday some notable celebrities turned out for the premiere of Breakfast with Scot at LA’s Outfest film festival. Is it possible for T.R. Knight and Mark Cornelson to be any cuter together?  Click on thumbnails below to view more pics.
  • ...and speaking of T.R. & Mark, actually it is possible for them to be even cuter together. The Socialite’s Life has a number of photos of the couple taking their dogs for a spin in LA. You can check them out here.

”Ciccone describes Ritchie as a man's man undisturbed by homophobic humor, whose emergence in Madonna's life marks 'the death knell' of the Ciccones' brother-sister bond.” 
Uh, what Ciccone says about Guy Ritchie may indeed be true, but I would say the “death knell” of his relationship with his sister has to be the publication of this book. I mean, my sister would kill me. And rightfully so.

  • According to USA Today, a Michigan man is suing two Bible publishers for seventy million dollars. His claim is that their versions of the Bible refer to homosexuality as a sin, and in doing so violate his constitutional rights, causing him emotional pain and mental instability. This case is almost certain to be dismissed before it goes to trial, but still it's a pretty interesting suit, and you gotta admire the guy's chutzpah for bringing it to court. (He's acting as his own attorney in the matter.) Hey, if he wins this case, I say we go after King James next.  

And today's Briefs are brought to you by...
