Appropriately enough, the enlisted hosts are the nominees in the new category of best reality show host: Heidi Klum ("Project Runway"), Tom Bergeron ("Dancing with the Stars"), Ryan Seacrest ("American Idol'), Howie Mandel ("Deal or No Deal") and Jeff Probst ("Survivor").
This is Seacrest's second time being tapped to host the Emmys, though he handled emceeing duties solo last year.
Details are still being worked out, but organizers say they hope to have all five hosts together on stage at some point, as well as present them in smaller sets and individually.
While five hosts may seem like a high number, it falls short of the 11 comedians -- including Ellen DeGeneres, Conan O'Brien, George Lopez and Wanda Sykes -- who shared hosting duties at the 55th Emmys Awards in 2003.
The 60th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards will take place Sept. 21 at Los Angeles' Nokia Theatre and air live on ABC.
