Video: Neil Patrick Harris pays a very funny visit to Conan O’Brien on “The Tonight Show”

When Neil Patrick Harris was a last-minute no-show for an event I was at Tuesday celebrating The Magic Castle in Hollywood (he’s on the board), he had a pretty darned good reason: a booking on The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien.

NPH is always a terrific guest on these shows and here he discusses his Holloween night with boyfriend David Burtka and the upcoming episode of How I Met Your Mother in which Barney appears 200 pounds heavier!

Then comes a sequence that could only happen when an openly gay man is guesting and it is really funny!

When Conan mentions that it seems like Barney is getting slapped all the time on the show. Neil says the ones that look the most real come from co-star Jason Segel: “He’s a big lug of a guy and he doesn’t believe in stunt slap at all. I think he’s jealous of me. I think there’s some sexual tension or something going on there. He lets me have it.”

NPH then remarks that “It hurts … he’s a big guy.” The audience begins to laugh knowingly, Neil realizes this and says: “I think that’s because everyone’s seen his wiener in that movie he was in.” (The movie was Forgetting Sarah Msrshall and Segal is completely nude for an extended period of time in a scene where his girlfriend breaks up with him.)

Neil attempts to clarify by saying Jason’s hands are “like hamhocks. That doesn’t feel good at all.”

As the audience continues its naughty laughter, Conan asks: “He’s slapping you with his hand though!”

Neil: “For sure-zees!”

“Wow!” he added. “That took a turn!”
