James Van Der Beek has signed on as host of the fourth annual LOGO “NewNowNext Awards” show in Hollywood, according to the entertainment network whose audience is largely comprised of gays and lesbians, and their families and friends.

In what will be music to the ears of still-devoted Dawson’s Creek fans, acting vet James Van Der Beek is returning to television in a new ABC sitcom. And you’ll never guess who he’ll be playing.
When James Van Der Beek’s character burst into tears on Dawson’s Creek all those years ago, little did we know his epically grimacing face would become Internet legend!
That little pixellated animation of Dawson bawling has brought joy to Internet users for ages – now the actor himself has decided to contribute to the “Crying Dawson” phenomenon by creating his own line of animated GIFs, or “James Van Der Memes.”
Oh — and did we forget to mention that he’s also hawking “Daddy I’d Like to F — Khakis” for Funny or Die? It’s the hottest thing to hit the fashion aisle for thirtysomethings since the MOM Jeans Phenomenon of 2003.
The “Dawson Crying/Crying Dawson” gif celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2011 and new dad James Van Der Beek is marking the anniversary by mocking the most popular character of his career with brilliant perfection.
