Belated news roundup

This item was posted by Rach in category News on Sat Oct-22-11 -

On October 10th Neil appeared at Joseph Gordon Levitt’s HitRECord Fall Formal. There are a number of videos on hitrecord.org – for example here and here – as this show was “an evening of vivacious live performance, sensational cinema & collaborative recording”, the audience were encouraged to record and so there are a lot of different versions/angles to watch. The clearest one I’ve found is here (though you might want to turn down your volume or cover your ears for until the sketch actually starts!) and there’s also a statement here that’s interesting to read after watching the skit.

Cinemax went on the set of the new Harold & Kumar movie and there’s some interview clips with Neil as well as John Cho and Kal Penn in their behind the scenes video. A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas is released across the USA on November 4, and we are very pleased to welcome John-Cho Fan and Kal Penn Fan to our affiliates.

We’ll be adding scans of Neil’s Entertainment Weekly cover story to the gallery soon, but you can read the article on their website here.

Neil looks back on the Halloween Yard Haunt that he built in his own backyard and turns to EB and Mike for advice on what rides he should experience with his twin babies.

Plus, there are a lot of other fun topics and surprises!

NPH on this week’s Entertainment Weekly Cover

This item was posted by Rach in category Magazines on Thu Sep-22-11 -

Neil is on the cover of this week’s Entertainment Weekly and has written their cover story – his own Hollywood Survival guide. The issue is on stands September 23.

Is there anything Neil Patrick Harris can’t do? He acts! He rocks jokes! He sings! He dances! He acts! He hosts! He performs magic! And now let’s add yet another talent to that list: He writes a damn good cover story! EW learned this firsthand — and you will too — when you open this week’s issue. We placed a pencil in the 38-year-old actor’s mouth hand and asked him to pen his version of a Hollywood Survival Guide, which details everything from the highs and lows of teen stardom, thanks to his role as a precocious doctor on Doogie Howser, M.D., to the joy of finding unexpected success as legendary bachelor Barney Stinson on CBS’ How I Met Your Mother. NPH also offers some sage advice on navigating interviews (reveal your personal life, not your private life) and how to act on a set (“Never be a d-bag to the crew”).
