Tina Fey wants Neil Patrick Harris to sing at the 2015 Oscars.
The 'This Is Where I Leave You' actress, who is set to host the Golden Globe Awards for the second time with close friend Amy Poehler in January, has no doubt the 'Gone Girl' actor will do a great job of presenting the prestigious rival ceremony in Los Angeles on February 22.
Asked if she had any advice for the 41-year-old actor, the former '30 Rock' star told E! News: "My advice, though, is sing! Sing because you can. Just sing the whole time. He can really sing."
Neil - who has previously hosted the Tonys and Emmy Awards - opened the Oscars in 2010 by performing a song and dance routine celebrating that year's hosts, Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin.
The actor recently said he wants the upcoming 87th annual ceremony to be a "classy" affair.
He said: "I don't want them to be super derivative of other shows that I've done. I don't want it to seem like I'm doing the same award hosting gig that I did on the Tonys, just now on a different stage ...
"I want to also just make sure that it's a classy event. I've always loved the Oscars and have great respect for its history, and the gowns, and the classiness of it."

Kesha reportedly swore under oath that Dr. Luke never assaulted her.
The 'Tik Tok' hitmaker, who has accused the music producer of sexually, physically, verbally and emotionally abusing her in a lawsuit, said they never had sexual relations and he never offered her drugs during a court deposition in 2011, but her lawyer, Mark Geragos, claims she was forced to lie at the time because the 41-year-old record label boss allegedly threatened her.
The blonde beauty was quizzed by lawyers about her relationship with Dr. Luke - real name Lukasz Gottwald - when they were both being sued by her former manager three years ago.
The court documents were unsealed on Tuesday morning (21.10.14) after Luke asked the judge to allow him to use the interview as evidence in their current court battle.
But the 27-year-old star's lawyer branded Luke's plans to use the deposition as evidence as "a pathetic attempt to once again blame the victim."
He also told gossip website TMZ.com: "Luke walked Kesha down the beach and threatened to destroy Kesha's life and the lives of her family if she didn't cover up his sexual assaults."
The 'Blow' singer, who sought treatment in rehab for an eating disorder in January, tried to resolve her issues with Dr. Luke privately before she decided to sue him last week in a bid to dissolve their contract.
Dr. Luke denies all of Kesha's allegations, and is suing her for breach of contract and defamation.

A spokesperson for the couple, who already have daughter Shaelyn Cado, five, confirmed the happy news to PEOPLE.com.
The former 'How I Met Your Mother' star, 32, and Taran, also 32, celebrated their second anniversary last month, following their star-studded wedding at the Alisal Guest Ranch and Resort in Solvang, California in September 2012, where guests included Alyson Hannigan and Neil Patrick Harris.
The brunette beauty, who has two movies slated for release next year, 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' and Results', admitted in the past that motherhood was "the best."
Shortly after giving birth to Shaelyn, the 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' star said: "I think I sleep an average of four hours a night now, so it's just like functioning on fumes sometimes. But it's the best."
Cobie and Taran got engaged in 2009 and although she kept details of his proposal private, she previously said it was very romantic.

Jenny McCarthy would "love" for her son to be gay.
The former Playboy model, who has a 12-year-old child, Evan, with ex-husband John Mallory Asher, likes the idea of him wanting to shop and do her hair.
Asked how she would react if Evan were gay, the 41-year-old star said: "Oh my god, I would be so excited. We can shop! Do my hair!"
The blonde beauty, who recently married Donnie Wahlberg, says two of her male friends, who are getting married next year, helped her to raise Evan.
She told PrideSource: "They've pretty much been live-ins for the last five years of my life as a single mom when I was on the road raising Evan.
"Evan loves them dearly, and I love seeing through the eyes of an innocent child: He loves them for them and has no issue. It's wonderful."
Meanwhile, the former 'The View' co-host doesn't consider herself to be a feminist, even though she thinks men and women should be "adored and respected equally."
She said: "I've never been one of those people. I just haven't. I feel like female and males should be adored and respected equally, but I'm not going to try and go and make some kind of statement."
She added: "Even posing for Playboy, (people were like), 'You think that was a feminist move?' I don't know; I just needed to pay off college!"

David Arquette and Christina McLarty are exhausted and hormonal.
The couple, who have six-month-old son Charlie, sparked rumours they had ended their engagement when they were caught arguing with each other on camera over the weekend, but the 43-year-old actor says they're still in love and planning to get married.
The 'Scream' star told gossip website TMZ.com: "We are both hormonal and haven't slept in six months. Christina is still breastfeeding, I feel like I am."
David takes full responsibility for the argument and says their relationship is now back on track.

Former 'Entertainment Tonight' presenter Christina, 33, who seemed to be in tears, replied: "Stop David ... Come here, please!"
The couple have been dating on and off since 2011.
Christina was previously married to Joe Francis, while David was married to 'Friends' actress Courteney Cox, with whom he has 10-year-old daughter Coco, for 11 years until 2010.

Matthew McConaughey's three children have made him more compassionate and selfish.
The 44-year-old actor, who has sons Levi, six, and Livingston, 22-months, and daughter Vida, four, with wife Camila Alves, says they are his number one priority and have brought "clarity" to his life.
Asked about being a father, the 'Interstellar' star told the November issue of GQ magazine: "It's the one thing I've always wanted to be. Never is a man more of a man than when he is the father of a newborn. Whatever decisions you make in the first six months of becoming a father, double down on them. I mean, you're meeting the Courier. You're meeting the Shepherd, the Future Prince. You immediately have something you don't have to think about. You know what's important. Bam! And the clarity of that is like, 'Whew.' I definitely got more selfish. And at the same time, I think I got more compassionate, which don't always go together, you know?"
But the Oscar winner admits Brazilian model Camilla, 33, had to give him an ultimatum before he proposed and married her in 2012.
He said: "I had to get to the point where I saw it [getting married] as more than just the thing to do. I wanted to really want to. You know, I didn't want it to be a destination; the fun is that we're on the adventure together. And look, some of it had to do with her putting it on me. It took her going, 'C'mon, Big Boy, Mr. Easygoing-We'll- Get-to-It-When-We-Get-to-It. Either s**t or get off the pot.'"

Keira Knightley was "a goody two-shoes" when she was younger.
The 29-year-old actress claims she was a "boring" well-behaved child and never skipped school because she didn't want to upset her parents or teachers.
The 'Laggies' star said: "I didn't get into any [trouble]. That's the most boring thing in the entire world."
She added: "I was absolutely a goody two-shoes."
Discussing what she was like when she was 16, she told her co-star Sam Rockwell in a game of 20 questions on E! News: "I think I was pretty neurotic."
Asked if she has changed, she replied: "No, not that much."
The British actress, who married the Klaxons star James Righton in the south of France in May 2013, would love to hide out in a vineyard if she could run away from her life for a week.
She said: "I'd go to a vineyard, probably in Burgundy, and I'd sit there and drink an awful lot of really good wine."
Keira recently admitted she isn't worried about celebrating her 30th birthday next March because she no longer cares what people think about her.
She said: "I'm not actually worried about turning 30. Because, honestly, my early twenties were not much fun. Then after 25, things just got better and better.
"Maybe you stop caring as much about where you should be going and what other people think - which is all the s**t that makes you very unhappy early on."

Kat Dennings thinks Kim Kardashian's butt is "amazing."
The '2 Broke Girls' actress was "very nervous" when the 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star filmed a cameo for the show's 80th episode and was too shy to tell the reality TV star, 34, how much she admires her famous curves.
The 28-year-old star told 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show': "I didn't know what to expect because she's so famous. I was very nervous because I've seen so many episodes [of 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians'], and she was very sweet. She was very nice. And her a** is amazing! I am feminism, girl power, but I was just so in love with her a**. I just spit talking about it - that's how passionate I feel!"
She added: "She's gorgeous. It's just amazing. I've never seen an a** like that in my life. There's an episode of 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' - an oldie, a vintage one, before she and [Kanye West] got married - and she was doing her music video and Kanye was there and he was like, 'I have never seen an a** like that.' And that's what I was thinking!"
Kat recently started dating Josh Groban after her co-star Beth Behrs introduced her to the singer, 33, and thinks he's a "wonderful person."
She said: "He's very witty on the Twitter and I saw his little tweets...and sometimes we would [tweet back and forth]. But, yeah she's always talked about how great he is. They've been friends for years. And she thought we were both, you know, nerds. So there, she was right."

Taylor Swift is "figuring out how to cope" with life on her own.
The 'Shake It Off' hitmaker hopes her upcoming album, '1989,' will prove she doesn't "need some guy" to help her "make a great record" or to feel confident.
The 24-year-old singer, who has been single since splitting up with Harry Styles in early 2013, said: "I just stopped dating people, because it meant a lot to me to set the record straight -- that I do not need some guy around in order to get inspiration, in order to make a great record, in order to live my life, in order to feel okay about myself. I wanted to show my fans the same thing."
The 'Out of the Woods' singer also previously dated Jake Gyllenhaal, Taylor Lautner and John Mayer, but thinks she has learned a lot from being single.
She told the November issue of Esquire magazine: "I've done more thinking and examining and figuring out how to cope with things on my own than I would have if I had been focusing on someone else's emotions and someone else's schedule. It's been really good."
But Taylor doesn't understand why her dating habits caused so much controversy in the past.
She said: "I would date someone, figure out we weren't compatible or figure out we didn't work out, and then we'd break up. That seems like a very normal thing for a young 20-something to do. I think it's healthy for everyone to go a few years without dating, just because you need to get to know who you are."
