Hugh’s Back! Jackman to Host Tony Awards for the Fourth Time

Things are looking up! We can stop crying into our Champagne over Neil Patrick Harris choosing to be a serious Broadway actor (in glitter and fishnets) in Hedwig and the Angry Inch instead of hosting the Tonys because Hugh Jackman is coming back! The Tony-winning Aussie will host the 68th Annual Tony Awards on June 8 at Radio City Music Hall. The telecast will be broadcast live on CBS.

This will be the fourth outing as host for Jackman, who won the 2004 Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical for The Boy from Oz. He previously hosted the the ceremony from 2004 to 2006, and won an Emmy Award for hosting in 2005. Click below to see the actor tell you the news himself!



Oh, and come on. You know you want to see this again and again! (So good!)
