How would you like to have the greatest Oscar host ever emceeing your Birthday bash?
Well Hillary will get to have that experience...


Hillary Clinton's 60th birthday bash next weekend just turned into a Crystal ball -- as in Billy Crystal.

The campaign confirms to the Mouth that the New York funnyman will emcee the big night at the Beacon Theatre next week.

They had already signed up Elvis Costello for the music, with Jakob Dylan's Wallflowers doing the warmup honors.

The campaign is hoping to raise about $1 million with the celebration, but by our math, selling out the Beacon should gross more like $2 million. We'd say between the entertainment and having both Clintons, they'll come pretty close.

Plus, Crystal's director from "When Harry Met Sally," Rob Reiner is throwing Hillary a party at his place this Sunday. Smaller crowd, but bigger donations.

Now all they need is Meg Ryan.
