Taylor Swift’s Cat Is Named After Olivia Benson

In June of 2014, Taylor Swift revealed that she had named her new kitten Olivia Benson after Mariska Hargitay’s character on the show. Hargitay was one of Swift’s idols, and she often approached her at various events to harp on how much she loved SVU. The two became friends after Swift offered Hargitay and her husband a ride home from a concert in Queens. Hargitay even appeared in the video for “Bad Blood” and appeared on stage with Swift during her concert on the “1989” tour.
