Barney Stinson- Who really is he?

Ok...so before we all get carried away with these blogs, I should probably tell you who Barney Stinson's character actually is. I know what your thinking...you just want hear more stories of his awesomeness but hold on, you'll be hearing plenty of stories of those...don't you worry.

Barney Stinson is played by American actor Neil Patrick Harris (born June 15, 1973). Neil was first well-known for his title role in "Doogie Howser, M.D." After "Doogie" ended, Neil got involved in theater, and performed in several Broadway productions. He also had a small but memorable cameo in the comedy "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle," in which he played a "drug and sex addicted" version of himself. He is currently starring in How I Met Your Mother as the womanizing Barney.

Neil Patrick Harris began working with the cast of How I Met Your Mother since September 2005 and has been a critical success, receiving consistently positive reviews throughout its run. It has won five Emmy awards, including a nomination for "Outstanding Comedy Series" in 2009. How I Met Your Mother won the People's Choice Awards 2012 for Best TV Network Comedy and Neil Patrick Harris won the Best Male Comedy Actor, in January 12, 2012.

Neil Patrick Harris is portrayed as the womanising Barney Stinson who is a player with the ladies, constantly boasting about his sexual achievements. However, contrary to this, Neil Patrick Harris is in fact homosexual! He is now married to his partner David Burtka and they have had fraternal twins via a surrogate mother. Namely Gideon Scott, a boy, and Harper Grace, a girl, were born on October 12, 2010.
