Neil Patrick Harris stopped by last night's LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN to talk about his new book "Choose Your Own Autobiography," and his recent Tony Award-winning performance in 'Hedwig and the Angry Inch."

"There was a lot of dry humping," said NPH of his rather risque performance in Hedwig, to which a surprised Letterman asked, "Do the Tony people know about that?" Quipped the actor, "Yeah, that's how I got the award!"

HEDWIG marked Harris' first appearance on Broadway since he starred as The Balladeer/Lee Harvey Oswald in the 2004 Tony-winning revival of Assassins. His other Broadway credits include Proof and Cabaret.

The actor just completed the final season of the beloved CBS comedy "How I Met Your Mother" and has been honored with four Emmy Awards: three for his acclaimed hosting of the TONY AWARDS and another for his guest-starring role on "Glee." His recent film projects include Fox's Gone Girl, Universal's A Million Ways to Die in the West, and Disney/Pixar's The Good Dinosaur.
