Neil Patrick Harris will host this year's Emmys
Neil Patrick Harris, who was a big deal when he hosted last month's Tonys, will reprise his role for the Emmys, CBS announced on Monday. We're glad to see the rumor mill is right once in awhile.
"After having had such a hoot hosting the Tonys, I was thrilled to get the call about the prime-time Emmys," said Harris, adding that he looks forward to "adding my own voice" to the ceremony: "But which voice to choose? I'm torn between gangsta, foppish Brit, and robot. Really proud of my robot. We'll see what happens on the night."
Harris, 36, will also serve as a producer for the broadcast, which will air live Sept. 20 from the Nokia Theatre in L.A., the AP reports.
