Tina Fey wants Neil Patrick Harris to sing at the 2015 Oscars.

The 'This Is Where I Leave You' actress, who is set to host the Golden Globe Awards for the second time with close friend Amy Poehler in January, has no doubt the 'Gone Girl' actor will do a great job of presenting the prestigious rival ceremony in Los Angeles on February 22.

Asked if she had any advice for the 41-year-old actor, the former '30 Rock' star told E! News: "My advice, though, is sing! Sing because you can. Just sing the whole time. He can really sing."

Neil - who has previously hosted the Tonys and Emmy Awards - opened the Oscars in 2010 by performing a song and dance routine celebrating that year's hosts, Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin.

The actor recently said he wants the upcoming 87th annual ceremony to be a "classy" affair.

He said: "I don't want them to be super derivative of other shows that I've done. I don't want it to seem like I'm doing the same award hosting gig that I did on the Tonys, just now on a different stage ...

"I want to also just make sure that it's a classy event. I've always loved the Oscars and have great respect for its history, and the gowns, and the classiness of it."
