Sweet and sticky sugar daddies at Tonys

Neil Patrick Harris grinds every angry inch of the stage, wins Tony Award

I wonder what The Bro Code’s take is on sugar daddies.

Everyone’s favourite gaylebrity, Neil Patrick Harris, rocked the 68th Tony Awards stage on Sunday night with a special performance of Hedwig and the Angry Inch song “Sugar Daddy.”

Harris grinded, he gyrated, he molested celebrities, he gave Sting a lap dance, he made out with his husband on international television. All the marks of a good Hedwig.

And he took home the award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical for his work as the titular character in Hedwig.

Not bad for a slip of a girly boy from Albuquerque.
