David Burtka Archives

Host Neil Patrick Harris keeps close to longtime love David Burtka held at the 2009 Emmy Awards at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday (September 20).

The Emmy Awards averaged 13.3 million total viewers, up 1.1 million versus last year’s ratings (the least-watched Emmys ever). The LA Times even said the ceremony “should serve as a playbook for all award shows to come.” Seems like CBS will be asking NPH to host once more!

FYI: NPH is wearing Dolce&Gabbana suits in all the pics.

A baby is not on the way for Neil Patrick Harris and his longtime love David Burtka.

A source had told Star, “Neil and David were so relieved and excited once they were approved [for the adoption process]. Now they have so many surrogate profiles to go through to find the right woman to carry their child.”

A spokesperson for the couple just released a statement debunking these rumors. The rep told AfterElton,
“If Star says it, then it must be true! No, we are not currently expecting a baby. Maybe someday…”

Neil Patrick Harris will host the 2009 Tony Awards on Sunday, June 7, live from NYC’s Radio City Music Hall.

“The discipline of live theatre — doing the same perfect thing night after night, eight times a week — never ceases to amaze me,” the 35-year-old How I Met Your Mother star said in a press release. “I’m truly honored to have been chosen as the Master of Ceremonies for this year’s Tony Awards, and I hope to help provide a first-class evening for all.”

The Tonys will air live @ 8-11PM ET/PT on CBS.

Last week, NPH told me that he plans to go back to Broadway someday. “I would love to [move back to NYC] when HIMYM is done,” NPH told JustJared.com. “I think we’ll move back to the east coast. The pulse of the city is so strong, the heartbeat here, I think it’s a better place to live day to day. Definitely theater. [My partner David Burtka is a big theater actor too, so he misses it as well.”

How I Met Your Mother star Neil Patrick Harris and actor boyfriend David Burtka arrive at NYV’s JFK airport from Los Angeles sipping on Starbucks on Wednesday.

The couple will soon be performing a duet together at Broadway Backwards 3, the gender-bending concert of show tune favorites benefiting the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center.

Says Burtka to BroadwayStars, “I’m very excited that this is the first time Neil and I will have sung together. But it’s also nerve-wracking, because the line-up of performers is so top-notch. It should be a great night.”
