Neil Patrick Harris stepped a bit out of character and was being a little troll during the Tony Awards. First, coming after Rachel Bloom and then coming after Bruce Springsteen.

“How was @thealexnewell not nominated for a Tony? @springsteen won, and he uses teleprompters. I don’t get the logic… #livetweetingtheTonys,” he wrote.

When a fan later defended Bruce, and compared being ok with the teleprompter as being ok with actors being microphoned up, Neil replied: “Seriously? Miking Actors isn’t because they can’t project, it’s for creating a proper sound mix. Using a teleprompter is just not being willing to memorize your lines. The director should have said something. Oh wait.”
