TONY HOSTS!
1) Ellen Degeneres (Yeah I know! I Can't spell!)
2) Angela Landsbury
3) Kelly Ripa
4) Madonna! (YUP!)
I actually like those options. Although, if Kelly Rippa were to host, she should co-host with Kathy Lee Gifford! Now there would be an interesting award show!!

I love the Ellen suggestion, but I would really like Rosie to come back and host.

Does Ellen have a Broadway connection? Shouldn't the host be someone famous that has performed or promoted Broadway?

Oh, no, Jim. It all boils down to what is 'hot' at the moment, don't you know anything?
MADONNA?!?!?!?
I rest my case.

alter - how many other acts of her stature are getting all the press for playing 25 minutes in a California desert?
I really think this is a year the committee should ignore the ratings when trying to find a host.
It's the 60th anniversary, they should really just pull in as many Broadway legends as they can get. We can worry about Ellen and Barbra and Hugh next year, but this year, I think it would be nice if they just said "F*ck it - Bring on Elaine Stritch, Carol Channing, Bernadette Peters, Barbara Cook, Angela Lansbury, Jennifer Holliday, George Hearn, Nathan Lane, Liza Minnelli, Chita Rivera, etc."
True, munk.
Look at the year Bernadette and Gregory Hines co-hosted.
Best hosts in quite a long time, in my opinion.
