Two more lopsided finals for Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams this weekend, as they beat "rivals" Roger Federer and Victoria Azarenka to head into Roland Garros as the clear favorites. This picture summed up Roger's performance to a T.

  Above, a gallery of 10 scorching-hot Bryan Hawn images. If you haven't heard of Bryan Hawn, you're behind on your behinds. Currently in possession of the Web's best back-up plan, Hawn is a fitness model, singer (A Decade of Music) and author, his latest book being THE LIST (What the Top Fitness Models Don't Want You to Know). Download Video as MP4 There's very little I don't want to know about Mr. Hawn, so I ended up interviewing him to find out some of those secrets, and to ask about the guy with the caboose that seems to be laying golden eggs for him... Boy Culture: Which came first, your interest in fitness or your interest in music? Bryan Hawn: Throughout my childhood, music and fitness were both a strong interest and equally monopolized my time. As I enveloped myself in both, they each created their own path and exciting adventures. At 16, I signed with CLICK models, my first modeling agency, and at 18, I signed my first record deal and moved to Los Angeles. BC: I've read you were a stripper. What was that like? BH: Living in L.A. was expensive, so dancing was an amazing way to finance my living expenses. I also met a few major record execs, agents and songwriters working at different clubs and venues, so it was a great networking tool for me as well. My most memorable moment was when Anastacia came up to the stage to tip me. When someone mentioned who she was, I didn't believe them. So she belted out one of her songs right in front of me. My mouth just dropped open...it was definitely her! Whatever your favorite song is, Bryan's probably got it covered. I told her I was a singer, too, and she invited me out to eat with her and her crew after the club closed. While we were waiting for our food to come out, she made me sing a cappella in front of the entire diner. It was an amazing experience. She is still a good friend of mine to this day. "In a world that is quite critical and filled with rejection, to believe that we are more than enough to go for our dreams can be challenging." BC: What's your favorite of your songs? BH: In 2008, the music video for my song "More Than Enough" hit #1 on Logo's Click Countdown and was named the #2 video of the year. I was very proud of that. I think the vocal is strong and the message is very inspiring. In a world that is quite critical and filled with rejection, to believe that we are more than enough to go for our dreams can be challenging. I think the song is a great reminder that we have everything we need inside of us Download Video as MP4 BC: What can readers expect from THE LIST? BH: It's based around the idea that it's not about working hard, but working smart. "How do I get the most out of my workouts and diet?" It is filled with information I learned over the years from working with top fitness models in the industry. It covers everything from the best exercises, most detrimental mistakes, and the importance of timing. Doing your workout in the wrong order can be the difference between results...and wasted effort. BC: How is self-publishing (the latest trend in publishing) working for you? BH: It has been a great avenue for me, having a huge social-media fanbase. A few of my YouTube videos marketing my ass-ets have produced lucrative results for my book, making it one of the best-selling fitness e-books on the market. If somebody has an innovative marketing strategy, then I highly recommend self-publishing. "I've always been a believer that anything is possible." BC: Is it even possible to build a butt as incredible from yours if you're not born with the raw materials? BH: I've always been a believer that anything is possible, and if you want something bad enough in life, you will find a way to make it a reality. Anything worth having in this life requires hard work. If it was easy, everyone would have it, and it wouldn't be special.

  Madonna slew at The Billboard Music Awards, arriving in an outfit that was giving me The Blue Angel, Sex and Dick Tracy flashes...and that was also giving me flasher flashes, considering she skipped pants. Madonna at 35 or 36 in 1995's Four Rooms... ...and 18 years later, age 54! Growing old "gracefully" is for people who could not wear this and look this good. Kibitzing with Celine Dion! Oh, and Keith at Billboard gets his Madonna moment, interviewing and posing with Madonna in one of her most memorable get-ups: Download Video as MP4

Last week, I popped into the new show Intimate Portraits at The Impossible Project Space NYC, which is up through June 17. It's a dual show, featuring Polaroids by Maripol and Slava Mogutin. An intimate peek at Intimate Portraits. Maripol, the woman who gave Madonna her "Boy Toy" look, has been shooting Polaroids for over 30 years. She has a collection of some indescribably beautiful '80s shots (I am proud to own an original), but this collection was less about Downtown personae and more about sensuality, featuring models Adele, Clemence, Alessandra and Aurele. So French, so erotic, so fun. I couldn't wait for Slava to shoot him, so I went ahead and did it myself. Want to again! Mogutin, whose work I also own, told me his were all commissioned especially for this show. They, too, focus on the erotic; he captures flesh in a way you can smell it. Speaking of which, a ripe, absolutely eye-popping dancer walked in wearing a Tintin tee and sporting Technicolor rain-streak tattoos down his arms. I told Slava, "You have to shoot him, and I'll buy it." He joked in his Russian accent, "I would like to get him between the sheets." Maripol told me she was jet-lagged, so I didn't see her by the time I left. Artists! But I did spot Brian Kenny and Robert Richards...and I own their stuff, too. I swear, almost every living artist whose work I have bought was in attendance. It made me feel like some crazy-important collector (which I am most certainly not). Flex appeal. Check out the show if you can—it's as tiny as the medium it celebrates, but packed with sexual abandon and represents a remarkable melding of styles from two artists I've always admired.

In a new interview with ESPN, Brittney Griner has revealed that Baylor University head coach Kim Mulkey asked her to conceal the fact that she was gay and claimed that not doing so might jeopardize recruitment for the team.  ESPN reports: In a series of interviews -- including one on camera Friday -- for an ESPN The Magazine and espnW.com story set to hit newsstands later this month, Griner said her silence during college was because Mulkey and her staff were concerned about the program's image. "It was more of a unwritten law [to not discuss your sexuality] ... it was just kind of, like, one of those things, you know, just don't do it," Griner said Friday. "They kind of tried to make it, like, 'Why put your business out on the street like that?'"  But Griner reiterated on Friday that her sexuality was an open secret at Baylor. "I told Coach [Mulkey] when she was recruiting me. I was like, 'I'm gay. I hope that's not a problem,' and she told me that it wasn't," Griner said. "I mean, my teammates knew, obviously they all knew. Everybody knew about it." Watch the ESPN interview with Griner, in which she addresses the above, AFTER THE JUMP.
