Taylor Swift named her cat Olivia Benson after the Law & Order: SVU character played by Mariska Hargitay. Swift tends to wear or tote her kitty cat around the Big Apple. She recently tweeted to the actress @Mariska and her bosses @nbcsvu: “if you noticed less crime in NYC today .. It’s cause the other Olivia Benson was on patrol.” Is Swift looking for a role on the Special Victims Unit show? She does have experience. In 2009, Taylor Swift played a teenage murder victim, Haley Jones, in an episode of CSI.
If Swift can’t land a role on Law & Order, she could always try the medical drama Grey’s Anatomy. Swift has another cat named Meredith, after Dr. Meredith Grey (played by Ellen Pompeo). Swifties don’t get to see Meredith quite as often, she’s an indoor cat. The season 16 premiere of Law & Order: SVU will air Wednesday, September 24 at 9 p.m. ET on NBC. Grey’s Anatomy season 11 premieres Thursday, Sept. 25, at 8 p.m. on ABC. Taylor Swift is, of course, always on.
