Neil Patrick Harris Casts a Gay Spell as Sesame Street's Shoe Fairy
http://www.towleroad.com/ 2008/ 07/ neil-patrick-ha.html
And by "gay" I mean "happy"... If you thought Feist was cute, watch Neil Patrick Harris play a Shoe Fairy on the 39th season premiere of Sesame Street. Watch it here. Harris spoke to AfterElton about the role: "Not the shoe fairy â the fairy shoe person. It's quite a different connotation. I was asked by Sesame Street to be a part of a song and I just leapt at the opportunity. Jim Henson was the only person I ever wrote a fan letter to as a kid and I'm a wild fan of puppets and the Henson Company in general. They wrote a song, wanted me to sing it. There are all these different mythical characters this season.

Neil Patrick Harris Crushes on Anderson Cooper, Strives for ‘Normalcy’
http://www.pinknews.co.uk/aroundtheworld/2008/08/neil-patric...Neil Patrick Harris talks to OUT magazine for their September issue and expresses his joy over the recent visibility of same-sex couples in the news surrounding the California same-sex marriage legislation (”I think that speaks way more than the ‘God Hates Fags’ signs.”). He also talks about what he believes his own role to be as a visible gay man: “My job is jester — not advocate. I’m on a situation comedy responding to [Josh Radnor’s character] Ted Mosby and his wacky adventures — that’s my job right now. If people want to comment about where I go to dinner, they are welcome to, but it’s not my job to respond to those statements. The Internet stuff threw me for a loop because I didn’t understand where the vitriol was coming from. I thought I had been representing well, and in turn it seemed like I was quickly condemned to step to the plate, and I was fine with that. I’m striving to be an example of normalcy. Because I’m noticed as an actor, people are aware of what’s happening in my life, and that I can’t change, and if I tried to, it’d be an uphill battle. I’d be angry and bitter. I’m a big proponent of monogamous relationships regardless of sexuality, and I’m proud of how the nation is steering toward that. Then you can look around and say, ‘I really deeply feel like I’m in love with this person, there are people who feel the same thing, and those models are normal.’ The ‘normal’ couples were sort of in the shadows for the past 15 or 20 years because you sort of needed other people to come forward and speak out.” Harris also confesses to a crush on Anderson Cooper: “Mmmmmmmm. Anderson. He’s dreamy. Just dreamy. I’ve been a fan of his since season 1 of The Mole. I just thought he was so cool when he talked in this cool, low, secret-agent voice — ‘If you can accomplish this task…’ Listen, no one can tell anyone how big their steps should be or when they can take them. You can take issue with someone making overtly denying statements, and you can take issue with people straight-up presenting themselves as someone that they’re not — because I think that’s kind of shady and not very stand-up. But you can’t fault someone for going through the process at their own time. You can’t. But again — to speak to the public nature of things — it is in our capacity to respect the job descriptions that people have separate from the life that they live. And I don’t care about the person on the news…I literally tune in to hear the news. I might find them dreamy, but I don’t really need to know much more about them.” recently Neil Patrick Harris Casts a Gay Spell as Sesame Street’s Shoe Fairy [tr] Neil Patrick Harris Now a Horrible Doctor [tr] Neil Patrick Harris Plays ‘Pretend’ Again for Old Spice [tr] This posting was automatically generated from a feed from Gay News Blog Read more….

Neil Patrick Harris en Barrio Sésamo
http://www.ambienteg.com/2008/07/24-neil-patrick-harris-en-b...Neil Patrick Harris en Barrio Sésamo Susana Ve el video en el sitio original. Neil Patrick Harris ha cantado una curiosa canción sobre zapatos en Barrio Sésamo. Es bastante normal que los actores y músicos de cierto éxito hagan apariciones estelares en Barrio Sésamo y esta ha sido la oportunidad de Neil. Ante tal evento sólo puedo decir que el peinado con rayita en medio no le favorece. Vía | Towleroad Más noticias sobre: Televisión Tags: Barrio Sésamo, Neil Patrick Harris, zapatos

Neil Patrick Harris is the Sesame Street Shoe Fairy
http://fruitsaladshow.wordpress.com/2008/07/23/neil-patrick-...Our beloved out & proud Neil Patrick Harris will be making an appearance on Sesame Street as a singing shoe fairy — I shit you not. In the meantime, I’m still trying to figure out the educational value of a shoe pixie that shoots crotch rings and sings about footwear. The video and more info after the jump. Hopefully the fairy of matching shoes will fix this mess. Just when you thought he couldn’t get any gayer, TowleRoad.com reported earlier today that Harris will be on the famous children’s show, dressed as a dapper mythical figure chanting about foot apparel. But, don’t call him a “shoe fairy”: “Not the shoe fairy – the fairy shoe person. It’s quite a different connotation. I was asked by Sesame Street to be a part of a song and I just leapt at the opportunity. Jim Henson was the only person I ever wrote a fan letter to as a kid and I’m a wild fan of puppets and the Henson Company in general. They wrote a song, wanted me to sing it. There are all these different mythical characters this season. Sandra Oh plays another type of fairy that Abby Cadabra creates and so we got to do this big musical number with puppets and dancing. It was a great, great afternoon. It’s one demographic that I have yet to win over.” Check out the video here. Isn’t that fabulous?! Now just get the “fairy shoe person”, Bert and Ernie in the same episode and you’ve got yourself a veritable Sesame Street Pride march. Rico Fruit Salad Gay Podcast FruitSaladShow.com
