Neil Patrick Harris lands another hosting gig...

Neil Patrick Harris is really in demand and I'd like to think it's not only because he's super talented, but also because he's super gay..

I'm not sure what that means but I guess what I mean is that since he came out as a gay man two years ago, he's just gotten to be a bigger and bigger star. He and Sarah Chalke have been tapped to host the 2008 Primetime Creative Arts Emmy® Awards on Saturday, September 13 from the NOKIA Theatre it was announced Thursday.

That's the show a week before the regular Emmys when they award the guest acting trophies and the reality show prizes, among others. This is the ceremony where, last year, Kathy Griffin told Jesus to "suck it...this award kis my God now."

Here's the bio that came with the press release: Neil Patrick Harris received his second Primetime Emmy® nomination this year for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for his performance as Barney Stinson on CBS' "How I Met Your Mother." A television favorite since his Golden Globe Award-nominated role in "Doogie Howser, M.D.," Harris has since firmly established himself in all mediums. On the stage, he most recently starred in Arthur Miller's "All My Sons" at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles. Other recent theater credits include star-turns in the London musical production of Jonathan Larson's "Tick, Tick...Boom," the Tony Award-winning musical "Assassins," "Cabaret" and "Proof." Harris' additional television credits include the series "Stark Raving Mad," "Will & Grace," "NUMB3RS," the mini-series "Joan of Arc," and the CBS television movie "The Christmas Blessing." Harris' film work began with "Clara's Heart," and includes the recent release "Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay."

What a stud!
