  "account": "At the 78th Annual Emmy Awards, Taylor Swift made an appearance not as herself, but as a detective in a meta pre-taped \"Law & Order: SVU\" sketch alongside actress Mariska Hargitay. In the sketch, Swift played a detective on the case of whether or not she would actually attend the awards show. Hargitay, playing her iconic character Olivia Benson, led the charge on the case, mapping out potential ways Swift could make an appearance. They analyzed numerology, including Swift's 13 nominations for \"DTF St. Louis,\" and connected St. Louis to her husband, NFL player Travis Kelce. Swift and Hargitay share a strong bond, with Swift even naming one of her cats after Benson. The two were recently spotted together courtside at the NBA Finals in Madison Square Garden. The \"SVU\" star also made a recent appearance in Swift's viral music video \"Bad Blood.\"",
