He dives! He sings! He plays ukulele!
Just days after he treated his fans to a spirited cover of Beyonce's "Single Ladies," Olympic diver Matthew Mitcham is back at it again -- this time, crooning the theme song to "Family Guy" in a clip apparently filmed in his room in London's Olympic Village.
"I'm just an Olympic diver who likes to strum away in his spare time," Mitcham wrote on his official YouTube page of his earlier clip. Those who complained that Mitcham's "Single Ladies" was shot in dim lighting will be happy to know the button-handsome Australian is not only more clearly visible, but also barechested in his new video.
Mitcham, who is gearing up to defend his gold medal on Aug. 11, is one of just 21 openly gay Olympians participating in London this year -- a fact he doesn't take lightly. "I'm very conscious of how I present myself as a role model," he has said.
Take a look at the openly gay Olympians participating in the 2012 Games below:

Alexandra Lacrabère(02 of22)
Lacarbére, 25, will represent France in women's handball at London this year. Last November, Lacrebére came out subtly in a handball newsletter, HandAction, and French-language Tétu.com reports, she said (translated), "I can paint, I make paintings in particular. I can go shopping and I especially spend time with my girlfriend." Tétu applauded the "small step" towards visibility, calling her (translated), "a model for youth in sports that are still hesitant to say loud and clear who they are." Correction on July 30 at 9:58am: The original version of this slideshow featured an incorrect translation. This is has been fixed." (credit:Facebook)
Matthew Mitcham(03 of22)

Mitcham, then 20 years old, credited partner Lachlan with helping him battle depression and emotional burnout in the years before his Olympic triumph. He also, apparently, takes his position as one of the few, out, gay male athletes--a 'bromosexual'--in stride: "Yes, I'm that gay, 2008-Olympic-gold-medal-winning diver dude. And yes, bro, I am quite sick," Mitcham writes on his Twitter page. (credit:Getty)
Lisa Raymond(04 of22)
Raymond, who will be competing on the United States doubles tennis team, has had an impressive nearly twenty-year career. In spite of this, she tells NBC10, one thing is eluding her: "For me the one thing I'm missing in my career is a medal from the Olympics... I've won slams, I've gotten the rankings, I've won the tournaments but to be on that podium that's something I've never done, I've never achieved."The soon-to-be 39 year old has had past relationships with some of her female tennis partners, and is one of the few lesbian athletes at this year's London games.

Imke Duplitze(08 of22)
Imke Duplitzer, 37, is just as fierce with her mouth as her sword. The member of the German Women's Epeé fencing team has recently voiced opposition to the Olympics in Bild Newspaper. The Local gives an English translation: "They're developing their own values and rules that are moving further and further from the Olympic spirit... Who doesn't like watching the flame being lit or a child carrying a dove through the stadium with dramatic music, with all those sentimental buttons being pushed? The sport is just a sideshow... it's not been about the athletes for a long time," alluding to the commercial-oriented policies that hinder opportunities for individual athletes. She also explained how easy it is to get away with taking performance-enhancing drugs--"If you have a bit of money for medication, a good doctor, and a lax federation, you'll never be caught."Duplitze is being applauded for being vocal in her criticism. Then again, as a lesbian woman, disrupting the status quo is par for the course. (credit:Getty)

"I think they were trying to be respectful and that it's my job to say, 'I'm gay,' she said. "Which I am. For the record: I am gay."Rapinoe, who's been dating her girlfriend -- identified in the magazine only as an Australian soccer player -- for three years, also took time to chat about homophobia in sports and, more specifically, female athletes' perspective on the subject."I feel like sports in general are still homophobic, in the sense that not a lot of people are out," she said. Still, she added, "In female sports, if you're gay, most likely your team knows it pretty quickly. It's very open and widely supported. For males, it's not that way at all. It's sad."Check her out on Twitter. (credit:Getty)

The 45 year-old gay dressage rider will be competing on behalf of the United Kingdom.
