AFTER nailing his Tony Awards hosting gig last month, Neil Patrick Harris is looking towards the “61st Emmy Awards.”
The “How I Met Your Mother” star is reportedly set to host the television awards show airing Sept. 20.
CBS hopes that he’ll draw a crowd to the awards, which hit an all-time viewership low last year. Harris’ Tony Awards gig attracted 7.45 million viewers — a 19 percent increase from the previous year, making it the most-watched Tonys since 2006.
Earlier in the year, Harris wowed audiences with song and skit while hosting the “TV Land Awards.”
