Neil Patrick Harris: Jimmy Fallon ‘Prefect Choice’ As Emmy Host
Last year’s Emmy host, Neil Patrick Harris, is giving Jimmy Fallon his stamp of approval as he takes over hosting duties for TV’s biggest night.
“That’s a perfect choice!” Neil told Access Hollywood when we broke the news to him that Jimmy had been named host of the 62nd annual Primetime Emmy Awards when we caught up with him at the 2010 Time 100 Gala in New York on Tuesday night.
“That is actually who I thought they would choose,” Neil continued. “He’s perfect, I think he’ll be just great.”
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, NBC announced that the “Late Night” host will preside over the ceremony, which will air Sunday, August 29 on NBC.
