Jim Parsons has revealed that there are no hard feelings between him and his Big Bang Theory co-star Johnny Galecki over the recently-released Emmy nominations.

Both Parsons and Galecki received nominations for 'Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series' earlier this morning. However, Parsons insists that there is no rivalry between the two actors.

"I'm so glad Johnny got [a nomination]," Parsons told The Hollywood Reporter. "It's wonderful to have the whole family feeling; it feels happier this year, to be totally honest, because there's more people. A party is always more fun with more people there."

The 38-year-old went on to confess that while he is looking forward to attending September's Emmy Awards, he already feels anxious about having to secure a tuxedo.

"The only thing that crossed my mind is that I have to find a tux," Parsons said. "I immediately went to the one anxiety point that I could as a person who doesn't like clothes shopping."

In June, it was announced that Parsons will be guest starring on the fourth season of iCarly, playing a psychiatric patient who believes he is from the future.

The 2011 Primetime Emmy Awards air on September 18.
