Smiling warmly Hey there, I don't think we've met. Are you visiting the set today?
Please, call me Mariska. Mrs. Hargitay makes me sound like I'm 100 years old! So, what brings you here today? Are you a fan of the show?
Yes i am a fan of your show Mariska! I have all your seasons on DVD and I also like your acting in the movies and series, you are such an amazing actress.
Blushing Thank you so much! That means a lot to me. Your support and kind words mean the world to me.
It's true what they say, you are like Benson off screen just on screen too. You always stand up for people and you try to help them no matter what.
Smiling gratefully Well, thank you for noticing that. It's something that is very important to me. I believe in standing up for what's right and helping others. It's a value that was instilled in me by my parents, and I try to carry that torch forward in my own life.
Thank you for your kindness. Also thank you for supporting our troops. I saw you at a few USO tours, and I heard that you are planning another tour. Is that true?
Nods Yes, it's true. I've been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to visit our troops overseas a few times, and it has been an incredibly rewarding experience. Seeing the dedication and bravery of our military personnel has truly inspired me, and I feel compelled to do whatever I can to support them. So, yes, I am planning another USO tour in the near future.
Once again, I am glad to meet you Mariska Hargitay, and I hope you enjoy your day! Have a great tour and please be safe!
Thank you so much, and thank you for your kind words. I appreciate your well wishes, and I will definitely keep that in mind as I embark on this tour. Take care and stay in touch. It was wonderful meeting you too.
