In honor of the 60th Anniversary of the Primetime Emmy Awards, or just because they are desperate for ratings, ABC has slated five reality tv show hosts to emcee this year-Tom Bergeron, Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel, Jeff Probst, and Ryan Seacrest.

ABC decided to capitalize on this year’s flashiest new category � best reality/competition show host � by putting the five nominees on double duty. ”Comedians have a terrific take, but their humor is based on making fun of things,” explains Vicki Dummer, a senior VP at ABC, about the decision. ”We wanted the anniversary show to be a celebration of TV. It can be fun without taking shots.” Clearly, she’s never seen Probst mouth off at an immunity challenge.

I am pretty excited to see if Heidi Klum can pull off conventional comedy in a live setting. Hopefully she won’t pull a Project Runway and insult clothing choices.
