Name: Neil Patrick Harris
Date of Birth: 15 June 1973 Both of his parents are lawyers. Went to the same high school as Freddie Prinze Jr.. Has performed magic tricks on "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" (1962), "Late Show with David Letterman" (1993), "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" (1992), and "Ellen: The Ellen DeGeneres Show" (2003). Perfomed as Mark in "Rent" at the Ahmanson Theater and the La Jolla Theater, both in Los Angeles, to rave reviews. Has sung since he was a child. His father played the folk guitar and together they entertained. ... His favorite movie is Rear Window (1954) by Alfred Hitchcock. His parents own a restaurant called "Perreniel's" in Albuquerque. Based on his Los Angeles stage performance in the musical Rent, he was attached to play Mark Cohen in a television mini series based on the Broadway musical, with Wilson Cruz as Angel, Rikki Lee Travolta as Roger Davis, and singer Shakira as Mimi, but the rights were pulled in order for Chris Columbus to make a film adaptation using much of the original Broadway cast including Anthony Rapp in the role of Mark. Is an avid Les Miserables fan, and performed the song "The Confrontation" with his co-star Jason Segel (both of "How I Met Your Mother" (2005) fame) live on "The Megan Mullally Show" (2006). He performed the role of Javert, to wild cheers from the audience. He was the "Not My Job" guest on the April 5, 2008, episode of the National Public Radio quiz show "Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!". He is an amateur magician, which he once demonstrated on the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon. Typically, actors playing themselves on film are listed "as Himself" in the film's credits. Due to the over-the-top, outlandish nature of his role in Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle (2004) and Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay (2008), he requested that his credit read "Neil Patrick Harris" instead of "as Himself". This was to make clear that he was playing a fictional character that was in no way a true representation of himself. According to an oral history of "Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog" (2008) published in July 2008 in Entertainment Weekly, he auditioned to play the doctor role on "Firefly" (2002) that was eventually filled by Sean Maher. He is credited using all three names because there was already a different actor named Neil Harris in the Screen Actors Guild by the time he first got his SAG card. Harris joked on NPR's "Fresh Air with Terry Gross" that he uses all three names because it's "far more theatrical," and that he and his parents considered using names like "Neil Danger Harris" or "Neil Patrick Rocket". Has been in a committed relationship with stage and screen actor David Burtka, his companion since 2004. Harris's closest friends include his companion David Burtka, Amy Acker, Lori and Lex Medlin, Becky Baeling, and Brandon Boyce. Enjoys Red Bull so much on and off the set of "How I Met Your Mother" (2005) that he was given a lifetime supply of it and a mini-refrigerator by the company that makes the drink because of the amount of free advertising he has given it. "She's like the coolest, nicest chick ever. She's an absolute catch, and I thought if I'm not going to feel the super sparks with her, then it probably means that I'm gay." [Harris speaking to Howard Stern about having dated actress Christine Taylor in his early 20s]. Read more Neil Patrick Harris Fans :Neil Patrick Harris movies (actor)
