Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Gauntlet III premiered on MTV last night and with it... some boy-on-boy makeout sessions. Looks like we're in for a ride this season... err, or at least one of the boys is! ;) Check out the video and more screencaps of the makeout session between Ryan Kehoe and Tyler Duckworth at Hunk du Jour.
Check out these self-portraits of fellow blogger Alexsander. Definitely a hottie... and talented too. You can peep more of Alexsander by visiting his blog.
Fellow blogger Hunk du Jour will be featuring a Q&A with Israeli musician Ivri Lider beginning at 8AM this morning. Lider was featured in this year's "Out 100" list, and is currently working on an English language album (along with another Hebrew album.)
Hunk du Jour: To be honest, when I think of middle eastern countries -- the thought of a gay artist not only being accepted, but being so popular isn't something that I would expect. Is there a disconnect between how the world views the middle east (or specifically, Israel) and what daily life is like?
Ivri Lider: Yes. Israel may be in the Middle East, but it is by no means "Middle Eastern." I think peoples' impression of Israel is skewed by the things they see on the news and read in the papers. That's not to say it's a perfect world over here, but things aren't nearly as bad as you might think they are from what gets reported. Culturally and artistically, Israel is much closer to New York and LA than to Baghdad and Tehran. In many ways Israel is even a much more liberal country than America, as we found out when my [American] boyfriend got a visa as my partner.
Friend and fellow blogger Alan Ilagan is up against two other guys for the Best Dressed Man of the Capital Region. It's clear to see that Alan has the best 'style' hands down. It takes more than just putting on a suit to be the best dressed man. You have to have a look that's all your own, a sense of "quality, taste, and style" (as my friend Tim Gunn would say). And you have to just plain ol' look good in your clothes. Alan has it all. If you aren't familiar with Alan's blog, take a look. Then vote for him here!
Homorific Hunk du Jour chatted recently with Jack Mackenroth about his life leading up to his appearance on the next season of Project Runway, auditioning for the show, his participation in the Gay Olympics, and exactly how much he loved watching previous seasons of the show.
Hunk du Jour: Where were you when you found out you were selected? How did you celebrate?
Jack Mackenroth: I got the call when I was walking down the street in Manhattan. It's a very surreal experience because you want to scream and tell the world but because of the air tight confidentiality agreement you cant tell anyone. Basically I just said "shut up!" to the person from Bravo and then I hung up and jumped up and down for about 30 seconds like a freak.

Friend and fellow blogger Brenton Parry, a.k.a. Aussielicious, recently shot another blogger that some of you might recognize... NarcissusAU, a.k.a. Synthetic Ego. As a competitive body builder, Narcissus needed someone to spray him down with olive oil and snap a few pics. Of course, Brenton obliged. To see the whole collection of oiled down muscle, click here.
