It's been a busy year for Harris. He wowed Broadway and won a Tony for "Hedwig." Then, there was his creepy role in the Oscar-nominated film "Gone Girl."

And now his biggest gig of all.

"The job of the host is like a good dinner host, is to welcome them in, take their coats, show them the house, make them feel comfortable," Harris said in an interview.

And he would know. He's done the Tony's and the Emmy's, so much hosting he's joked he has an obsessive hosting disorder.

So, what can we expect? Harris has been dropping hints online. There is sure to be some razzle dazzle. He's getting help from the top songwriters behind a Disney smash hit.

"What they are doing, I'm not at liberty to say but it won't be a song called,'Let it Go,"'he said.

He's even offering spoilers on what he'll be wearing.

"Fuchsia? Never fuchsia. No matter what anyone tells you, never fuchsia," Harris said.
