Sean Hayes to Host the Tony Awards

It's doubtful the television audience will believe him as a host.
He's going to be such an amazing host! The Tonys are looking good this year! Sean Hayes as a host alongside presenterse like Michael dougless and Lucy Liu will make for an exciting show! I think Hayes is the perfect choice!
