Neil Patrick Harris Outsmarts MTV's PUNK'D

By:

In December, MTV announced that its groundbreaking hit series PUNK'D would be returning to the air in March of 2012 with a different celebrity host each week. The cable network announced that celebrity guest hosts would include Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, Kellan Lutz, Bam Margera and Dax Shepard.

Originally hosted and created by Ashton Kutcher, the series became a pop cultural phenomenon. It uses hidden cameras to pull pranks on many celebrities including Justin Timberlake, Lindsay Lohan, Beyoncé and Zac Efron.

Recently, the show attempted to pull a fast one on 'How I Met Your Mother's' Neil Patrick Harris, but the celeb was too sharp to take the bait. Harris tweeted a picture with the caption "Rock climbing with @Davidburtka today. Chill Sunday fun." last weekend, but quickly added "So the rock climbing was a ruse to try and have me Punk'd. Nice try, MTV. It'll take more than a live bear destroying my car to fool NPH."

MTV's PUNK'D will premiere on MTV March 19th.
