Neil Patrick Harris reflects on 2014 which he describes as “the most glorious year of clusterf***s”
We all know that Neil Patrick Harris has had the biggest year of his career with two movie roles, a Tony win for Hedwig and the Angry Inch, being named Oscar host, writing Choose Your Own Autobiography and appearing in his final season of How I Met Your Mother.
So how crazy did things get?
NPH tells you himself in this article he wrote for the current issue of Entertainment Weekly:
This last year has been the most glorious of clusterf***s.
I was finishing How I Met Your Mother, in rehearsals to perform Hedwig and the Angry Inch on Broadway, and filming back-to-back feature films.
I remember one day where after HIMYM, I drove across town to put on high heeled boots to rehearse in a totally new physicality for Hedwig, then headed back across town to do some looping for the Western A Million Ways to Die in the West, and then went to a table read for Gone Girl.
It was a bit like juggling. Juggling a bowling ball, a tennis racket, a kitten, and a chain saw.
So I added a book.
Right now, I’m in New Orleans filming American Horror Story: Freak Show. My husband David’s doing a cabaret that I’m directing in New York. We bought a brownstone in Harlem that we’re renovating. I’m starting a production company. And I’m gearing up to host the Oscars.
But I remain hopeful that next year will involve more calm, more family time.
Sigh.
Cuz nothing says calm quite like tireless, ebullient twin four-year-olds …

How can he reflect on 2015 when it hasn’t happened yet. I know NPH is super talented but I don’t think that even he can time travel. (I know, it’s just a headline typo. Got to have some fun with it)

Time for a new film “I Don’t Know How He Does It”
When you’re motivated you’re motivated:) and he’s a great role model too.
