Almost every actor has been on Law & Order: SVU, including my father. So, you have to wonder if there is anyone left that Mariska Hargitay would like to work with on the police procedural?
We are not the only ones who wondered that. Savannah Guthrie was pondering that very thing, so she asked the actress that very question on Today today.
Who is left to guest star on the series who hasn’t? There are two people: the New York Knicks’ Jalen Brunson and Jamie Lee Curtis. Can you believe that latter hasn’t done the show in 27 seasons? But she hasn’t.
Maybe next season, they can do an episode with both of them and one more special guest. Who? Guthrie pitched herself to do a cameo. Maybe Brunson can be accused of rape of several women; Curtis is his lawyer, and Guthrie covers the story.
I bet you when Curtis hears what Olivia Benson says, she will be like I am in.
Mariska Hargitay is making her Broadway debut in Every Brilliant Thing later this month. In honor of the occasion, the actress decided to make a big change. So she went to Adir Abergel to get her bra-length hair chopped up to her chin, with some layers.
The shaggy Bob seemed to change her spirit, making her feel more youthful! I am not going to say more beautiful because she is always that! In fact, I think she is one of the prettiest women I have ever seen. The camera hates her. That is how gorgeous she is.
I hope she breaks a lot of legs on the Great White Way this Summer!
Remember season 24 of Law & Order: SVU, when Benson and Stabler came close to giving the fans what they wanted and almost kissed? Well, it turns out, they did!
What??? Mariska Hargitay told The Hollywood Reporter, “I think we [she and Chris Meloni] felt that this moment was earned, that this thing could happen for a second — and so that’s how we shot it. [audience goes crazy] Don’t you wish you were there for that?! Yeah. We shot it a couple different ways. And then they [Wolf and others] had the choice in editing, and they [opted to use the near-kiss version rather than the kiss] … We [she and Meloni] disagreed. We disagreed because we thought that it was earned and the way it was dealt with was really complex and very beautiful and very human and showed the complexity of their relationship and all the different ways that they’re connected … [But] no matter what I want, Dick Wolf can totally just say, ‘Uh, no.’”
However, the Executive Producer said yes to her directing the 600th episode (Can you believe they have done that many episodes?), which will be the sixth episode next season. Maybe Wolf will also say yes to the former partners finally kissing?!?
Earlier this week, Stephon Vann and his friends posted a video of them doing a dance routine to the Law & Order theme song. And it appropriately went viral.
It went so viral that it got back to Law & Order: SVU’s Mariska Hargitay and Kelli Giddish. They loved it so much, they decided to do it for themselves!
If this acting thing becomes dun-dun for the actresses, then they could have a career as dancers!
I don’t know why these videos bring me so much joy, but they do! And you know what would give me even more joy? If we see Ice T do it!
Before Mariska Hargitay was investigating vicious felonies on Law & Order: SVU, she should have been investigating how her friend lost Elizabeth’s pearl necklace on Can’t Hurry Love. How beautiful was the 31-year-old actress working with the women whose kids she grew up playing with in that 1996 episode?
This clip makes me want to see Mariska do some more comedy because she is a natural at it!
