No she didn't, but she was announced as one of the people announcing the Tonys.

She was replaced by Nikki M. James due to a scheduling conflict.

Who's actually hosting tho. This is getting a bit silly now, why haven't they announced it yet.
Caption: Every so often there was a rare moment of perfect balance when I soared above him.

I think it's getting to be a bit late, too, but remember that they announced Kristin Chenoweth and Alan Cumming as the 2015 hosts in very late April that year. Hoping it won't be that late this season...

I would love for Jake Gyllenhaal and Annaleigh Ashford to host.

Three of the four years Neil Patrick Harris hosted, he wasn't officially announced after the nominations came out. It was only his third year in 2012 when he was announced beforehand.

It will likely be either Stephen Colbert or James Corden. I do see a possibility of Tina Fey hosting, in an effort to promote Mean Girls before it opens for next year. As she is not longer on an NBC show, she no longer needs to get their approval to host the Tony's on CBS. Another option is Rachel Bloom considering Crazy Ex Girlfriend is produced by CBS, and I am sure the CW would love the free publicity.

It will have almost no impact, though. The people who watch The Tony Awards will watch The Tony Awards...

I'd love to see Mulaney and Kroll host as their Oh Hello characters.

Or they can just do a bit with them throughout the night where they just talk abut it the winners and losers. They could just be sitting in the front row.

That would be fun! they can call it "Too Much Tonys."
A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.

I would be totally okay with Colbert. Or maybe Laura Benanti can host?

Bold(?) prediction: It's gonna be Colbert
But if it was Kroll and Mulaney as Gil and George I would weep for joy

Except that 11 people actually know who Rachel Bloom is -- and all of them are already watching the Tonys no matter who is hosting.

I am praying every day that Gil and George will make themselves seen on TONY night! Nick and John really brought so much joy to Broadway this season and I'm so sad that they aren't still running. I saw it 3 times and would have gone 3 more!

Honestly, Kroll and Mulaney would make tremendous sense from a commercial audience perspective, too. Oh, Hello has easily been the show that most of my non-theatre friends have asked me about this season. I truly believe a lot of non-Tony regulars would tune in to see them.

James Corden is going to be taking his late night talk show to London from June 6th-8th, so it doesn't look like he'll be hosting again this year...
