Neil Patrick Harris Reveals His Celebrity Crush

And hubby David Burtka's OK with it!
|

In a candid chat with Wendy Williams this week, Neil Patrick Harris opened up about -- among other things -- his celebrity crush. 

The Emmy and Tony-winning actor, 42, told Williams he's been smitten with none other than Nick Jonas for some time, and his husband David Burtka doesn't mind. 

"He was really good-looking even before it was allowed to think he was good-looking, which was a bit of a problem," Harris quipped. "You had to wait until he turned 19 to 20, and then you were like, ‘What is happening??’”

The star, who is currently promoting his new variety show, “Best Time Ever With Neil Patrick Harris,” also shared what it was like to work alongside Madonna in the 2000 film, "The Next Best Thing," and whether or not he stuffed before appearing on the 2015 Academy Awards in just his underpants

We're with you on the JoBro love, Neil!
