Actor Mariska Hargitay has played Olivia Benson on “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” since 1999.
Her lengthy tenure inspired superstar Taylor Swift to name one of her three cats Olivia Benson.
Olivia the cat, not the character has been a part of Swift’s family since 2014.
Similarly, Hargitay found inspiration for her cat’s name from Swift’s body of work too.
Hargitay took toInstagramin November 2023 to share two photos of her new pet.
Her caption read: “Karma is a Cat @taylorswift Meet Karma.
“Are you serious?!!!!”
“Nothing has ever come more full circle.”
She included a red circle emoji and added, “LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!”
with the cat-with-heart-eyes emoji.
The mother-daughter duo was also invited to the world premiere of “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour.”
Hargitay first attended the “Eras Tour” in May 2023, at the Nissan Stadium in Nashville.
Hargitay alsosharedsome shots of her concert outfit and pictures from the show itself.
One photo showed her rocking a “1989” top and sparkly earrings.
Deepest gratitude to @taylorswift for your poetry and wisdom.
Thank you, Taylor, for all you do and all you are.
