More from the Emmy red carpet...

RED CARPET: THE GUYS: I hope to have a photo gallery for you later today of my few hours wandering around the red carpet, rubbing elbows with folks. The women obviously dominate the scene with their fashions while all the guys look similar with the black and white tux look. Except for Alan Cumming who wore some checkered jacket with mustard-colored pants look.

You can't tell in the photos but his head is shaved in the back. I hate to be unkind, but he looked even worse than he did at the Democratic National Convention last month. But if he's happy, I guess that's what matters!

I think the best looking nominated man was "Pushing Daisies" star Lee Pace who is such a tall and handsome drink of water. Also, those cool cats Jon Hamm and John Slattery from "Made Men" are just effortlessly glamorous.

And then there is David Boreanaz, the star of "Bones," who was dashing. He's such a handsome guy who is a TV good luck charm from "Buffy" to "Angel" and now "Bones."

In the youth category, John Krazinski of "The Office" is a real dish and I think is on his way to becoming an even bigger star than he is right now.

THE BETTER HALF: At one point, I stood near a giant Emmy statue to take in the scene and started chatting up a guy standing next to me. I found out that it was Marcia Cross' husband, Tom Mahoney. As his wife was being interviewed by various outlets, we talked about their twins who Tom said he can't wait to see when he gets home from work each day.
Lucky guy...

Gabbed at length with David Burtka, the partner of nominee Neil Patrick Harris. I jokingly asked him, "Who are you rooting for?"

"Piven!" David joked.

Unfortunately, Jeremy Piven did win - for the third consecutive year - and the very-deserving NPH did not.

David and I had a really good conversation but since it wasn't an interview, I'm just going to keep it private. But I will say that I really liked him and he is really proud of Neil!
