July 4th weekend in The United States is a time for block parties, fireworks and organic cider-infused pulled pork sandwiches. It's also time for Hollywood's kings and queens to hit Malibu, Santa Barbara and Hoboken for a quick weekend getaway, thus putting a temporary moratorium on all things movie-related. So it looks like I'm forced to let you all know that Neil Patrick Harris, he of "sudden career renaissance" fame is set to host this year's Emmy awards after recently earning rave reviews as host of the Tony Awards. The "How I Met Your Mother Star" used to be something of a punchline back in the day, due in part to his role in "Doogie Howser M.D." But thanks to a couple of dudes named Harold and Kumar and a few other smart career moves, I think it's safe to say that Neil patrick Harris is the new Will Smith.

Yup!
Super Gay! Way back at the first Gypsy Revival on Broadway he and Tulsa (who is as far as I know his current boyfriend) got caught in the men's bathroom on opening night!

What would happen...
Would he be able to host and win an Emmy at the same time? It's about time he gets one for HIMYM

@whatever
Barma was joking, by pointing out the obvious. You should climb off your soapbox - or save it for where its needed. Everybody knows that he's gay, nobody cares - except to applaud the fact that he came out of his own accord. If you look at the posts related to NPH over the years, you'll see he's revered at this site. So take a Valium and chill out.

I don't know why you feel the need to point out that NPH is gay (WTF does that even matter? He's cool and he's a good actor and a great host, so why does his sexuality make any difference?)... I just registered to point out that I think your post was really immature and I don't understand what NPH's sexuality has to do with judging him. Judge him as an actor. His sexuality has nothing to do...

I just registered to point out that I think your post was really immature and I don't understand what NPH's sexuality has to do with judging him. Judge him as an actor. His sexuality has nothing to do with it. He is a regular guy who just happens to have a boyfriend who he's been with for 5 years. So what? On another note, judging him for playing Doogie Howser TWENTY FRICKING YEARS AGO is also ridiculous. He was 16! Give him a break. He's proved since then (and even then) that he's a very good actor, so I don't understand why people keep throwing the Doogie thing in his face like it should discount everything he's done in the last 20 years. That's just idiotic! Anyway, I, for one, am looking forward to NPH hosting the Emmy's - I think he's amazing. And I hope he wins for best supporting actor in a comedy while he's at it. He deserves it. I wish people would stop trying to discount his talent in the meantime by using the "he's gay" and "he's Doogie" things as some sort of excuses as to why people shouldn't support him. It's both retarded and homophobic, IMO.

Dude's hilarious. I would love to see him work with Judd Apatow or Kevin Smith.
