Neil Patrick Harris accepts the ALS ice bucket challenge

Coming off his run in the acclaimed Broadway production of “Hedwig and the Angry Inch,” Neil Patrick Harris recently accepted Ben Affleck’s ice bucket challenge.

When nominating people for the challenge Affleck wanted to pick those he knew “from first hand experience [would] look good in a wet T-shirt.”  NPH stripped his shirt as his husband David Burtka rained icy water on the stage and television star with their two children, Gideon and Harper, watching and giggling.

Andrew Rannells is currently donning the wigs and stockings as Hedwig on Broadway at the Belasco Theatre.

NPH recently addressed rumors that he and Burtka were living separately and seeing other people.

He said: “I couldn’t be more in love with my family, any reports to the contrary are woefully mistaken.”
