The Academy Awards can still occasionaly surprise. 

Like when Neil Patrick Harris came out on stage instead of Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin and performed an opening number to kick off the 82nd Academy Awards.

(For one split second I thought he was doing it instead of Martin/Baldwin.)

After his stint at the Emmy’s, the question was why can’t he do the Academy Awards?  After last night the answer is there’s no reason he shouldn’t.

The lyrics of the opening number were hysterically bawdy as was the song’s title, “No one Wants To Do It Alone”. 

Expect a real push from both the industry and the public to have NPH host the 2011 awards ceremony next year.
