Ryan Seacrest ("American Idol"), Heidi Klum ("Project Runway"), Jeff Probst ("Survivor"), Tom Bergeron ("Dancing with the Stars") and Howie Mandel ("Deal or No Deal") strike a pose as the five hosts for this year's primetime Emmy Awards.
But they are also all competing for an Emmy in the the Outstanding Host Reality or Reality Competition Program category that was added to this year's nomination ballot -- and only one can be the Sole Survivor -- Oops! Rather, only one can win the Emmy! As Heidi would say, "You are either in, or you're out!"
According to executive producer Ken Ehrlich the five were chosen because: "As we thought about the very important role of a host for this year's show, it became more and more apparent that we should ask these people who do such great work as hosts on a weekly basis to host television's night to shine. This is what they do best, and we're convinced they'll do a great job for us on Emmy Night."
The "60th Primetime Emmys" will air on Sunday, Sept. 21 at 8 p.m. on ABC.
