Alan Cumming stopped by last night's LATE NIGHT to talk about hosting the TONY AWARDS this Sunday night. The 'Cabaret' star revealed that although he has appeared in Broadway musicals, he is really not a musical guy.

He went on to share that he will be part of a musical tribute to 10-time Tony Award winner and Lifetime Achievement recipient Tommy Tune. "We're dancing and singing in a MASH UP of three very famous shows that Tommy Tune's done, none of which I know and none of which I really understand," joked the actor.

Later, Cumming discusses a night on the town with Hedwig's Darren Criss at downtown club Marie's Crisis and shares a practical joke he pulled on Tony co-host Kristin Chenoweth involving her iconic Wicked number "Popular."
