Stars from comedies, dramas and late-night TV are gearing up for the 65th Primetime Emmy Awards, set to air live Sunday starting at 8 p.m. ET on CBS.

Hosted by Neil Patrick Harris, the gala will be held for the sixth year at the Nokia Theatre in downtown Los Angeles.

“There’s a lot of awards, so I thankfully don’t have to do a lot of work,” Harris told The Associated Press. “I get to come up with some funny one-liners.”


And this year’s ceremony could make history. If the Netflix series “House of Cards” were to win best drama series, for example, it would mark the first time the Emmys recognizes a program delivered online in a major category. “House of Cards” also has Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright in the running for acting statuettes.


Meanwhile, the presenters’ bill is long and star-studded: Malin Akerman, Connie Britton, Dan Bucatinsky, Emilia Clarke, Tim Gunn, Alyson Hannigan, Cobie Smulders, Jimmy Fallon, Jon Hamm, LL Cool J, Mindy Kaling, Heidi Klum, Melissa Leo, Julianna Margulies, Dylan McDermott, Bob Newhart, Dean Norris, Jim Parsons, Carrie Preston, Blair Underwood, Will Arnett, Alec Baldwin, Andre Braugher, Diahann Carroll, Bryan Cranston, Matt Damon, Claire Danes, Emily Deschanel, Zooey Deschanel, Michael Douglas, Anna Faris, Tina Fey, Allison Janney, Jimmy Kimmel, Margo Martindale, Amy Poehler, Sofia Vergara and Kerry Washington.

“The beauty about the American system is that you’re innocent ’til proven guilty,” the rapper told Politicker as he greeted excited fans at the annual basketball event when asked about the scandal.
