Before Mariska Hargitay was working for Law & Order: SVU, she just graduated high school in Welcome to 18. She looks the same now as she did when she 22 in that 1986 movie.
Jennifer Finnigan Tweeted the above picture and said, “Me, Jonny & Mariska Hargitay toasting Bacchus last night. And yes that is Harry Connick Jr creeping in the background!” Since I read what she wrote before I saw the picture I was surprised to see that it looks like Finnigan, her husband Jonathan Silverman and Harry Connick Jr were all photobombing the Law & Order: SVU star. I don’t get why Harry is hiding out behind them, after all Mariska and him are getting very close on the NBC procedural and you would think he would be comfortable be front and center with her?
Actually you know what the four of them look like they are having a huge blast at Mardi Gras in New Orleans. I just want to know what they did to get those beads? Hopefully something they couldn’t post on Twitter…
Fame Pictures
Mariska Hargitay was filming an episode of her show Law & Order: SVU when she got a visit from the little man in her life. I don’t know who was happier, the glowing mom or her cute three year old son August Hermann. Seriously how precious are those pictures of the them together? She might play tough Olivia Benson on the show, but in person she is just a softie especially when it comes to her awwwdorable son!!!
On Wednesday’s Law & Order: SVU on NBC at 9p Kathy Griffin will be playing Babs, a lesbian activist whose group members are being murdered. While Detective Benson (Mariska Hargitay) is protecting her, Babs misreads the signals and kisses her. That kiss has to be the most awkward same-sex kiss on TV so far, but I think it was suppose to play out that way. Even as uneasy as it felt, I am sure there will be a lot people who will be using the :10 second rewind feature on their remotes to watch it over and over again.
BTW there are two new episodes of Law & Order: SVU this Wednesday, one at 9p and one at 10p. This will be first time SVU will air in its old timeslot since the failed Jay Leno experiment.
Before Mariska Hargitay was a detective on Law & Order: SVU, she was pre-med student on Freddy’s Nightmatres. Thankfully the 24 year old actress lost those huge glasses she wore in that 1988 episode.
BTW a bonus BTWF at 11:11 in: Before Shiri Appleby was a mother of a teenager on Life UneXpected, she was an awwwdorable 9 year old actress in that episode!
