Mariska Hargitay Says a Psychic Predicted Her ‘Law & Order: SVU’ Career Success
- On June 25, 2025, Mariska Hargitay revealed on the Call Her Daddy podcast that a Long Island psychic predicted her Law & Order: SVU career.
- This followed a friend's urging when Hargitay was 34 years old and planning a comedy career in Los Angeles, prompting her to visit the psychic.
- During the reading, the psychic bluntly said, "You're gonna be famous for that face," while Hargitay insisted, "I'm gonna be a comedian."
- Hargitay shared that just half a year after her visit to the psychic, she landed the role of Detective Olivia Benson, a character she has portrayed for 26 seasons, with the 27th season set to debut this fall.
- This experience implies a turning point linking the psychic’s prediction to Hargitay’s enduring New York–based drama career on SVU.
