Mariska Hargitays Emmys opening monologue gets interrupted by Nicole Kidman

Mariska Hargitay, star of Law & Order SVU, hosted the 2026 Emmys and surprised viewers by crashing a sketch parody of her own show. Known for her adoration of the series, Swift even named her cat after Hargitay's character, Olivia Benson, and featured her in her 2015 music video, "Bad Blood." During the sketch, Hargitay attempted to "think like a Swiftie," putting clues together on a crime board.

The entire sketch was filled with puns and references, featuring two Olivia Bensons on screen simultaneously. The 2026 Emmys winners were also showcased, and fans could expect more film and TV news and reviews from Mashable.
