Haven't done that yet, thank god. But performing the ceremony was no fun either. Carrie was a comedian and I was instructed to "keep it fun and funny."

She also happened to be Carol Burnett's daughter.

So I'm on a stage in front of 600 people packed into a small Beverly Hills theater and I'm looking at Harvey Corman, Tim Conway, Carol Burnett - all in tears, and trying to keep it fun and funny.

We had a few laughs - Carrie would have loved it.
