For dog lovers, it was probably the highlight of last night’s Tony Awards telecast on CBS: Host Neil Patrick Harris introduced a performance from “A Christmas Story: The Musical” with Sandy, the terrier mix from “Annie,” sitting by his side at the edge of the Radio City Music Hall stage.
As Harris spoke, Sandy (who is a female named Sunny, and like most of her predecessors in the role, a former shelter dog) began nuzzling his neck. Harris pretended to lose a bit of composure (“Give a dog a bone,” he warbled.)
But then things got a little – weird – when Sandy began kissing Harris on the lips. Harris opened his mouth and, well, watch the video below to see the rest. (Does it give anyone else flashbacks to a certain scene in “There’s Something About Mary?”)
After their smooch, Harris said to Sandy, who was still licking her chops, “You do know I’m in a relationship, right?”
Tell us what you think of the Tony Awards pooch smooch – “Aww!” or “Ick!”
