Mariska Hargitay Reveals Long Island Psychic Predicted SVU Career

News summary

Mariska Hargitay revealed on the Call Her Daddy podcast that a visit to a Long Island psychic when she was 34 years old predicted her future career and move to New York. Though she originally planned to live in Los Angeles and pursue comedy, the psychic told her she would become famous for her "serious face" and move to New York, a prediction that surprised Hargitay. Despite her skepticism and initial plans, six months after the reading, she landed the role of Olivia Benson on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. Hargitay has portrayed the character for 26 seasons, becoming one of TV's longest-running female characters and earning multiple Emmy nominations and one win. The psychic's blunt assurance, "I don't give a rat's ass what you think, you're going to be famous for that face," remains a memorable moment for Hargitay. She also discussed her new documentary about her mother Jayne Mansfield, adding depth to her reflections on her career and family legacy.
