Last night, the stars were out in full force for Broadway Backwards 3, a gender-bending concert featuring male singers performing songs traditionally performed by female singers, and vice versa, with all proceeds benefiting the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender (LGBT) Community Center. Among the performers were real-life couple Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka, who sang "Take Me or Leave Me" from Rent.
