Mariska Hargitay Talks About Lung Collapse Incident
Mariska Hargitay lived through an extremely scary incident when her lung collapsed while on the set of Law & Order: SVU. And then it happened again! Now she's talking about it to Redbook Magazine, for the first time.
Last October, while shooting an episode, doing her own stunts as usual, Mariska jumped and landed in such a way that a microscopic bleed began in her lung tissue. In January of this year, she was admitted to the hospital. An X-ray revealed her right lung was 50 percent collapsed. "I began to panic," she said. "I was so scared." A medical procedure was performed to stave off more serious surgery – which arrived two weeks later anyway. Though assured she was now in fine shape after recovering, "on March 5, it happened again. I was one out of 1,000, statistically."
Afterward, she says that she came to realize,
"I had so much to lose, so much to live for … I have so many blessings, and I've learned from all of my experiences and my losses."
I'm so glad Mariska is alright. Seriously, how TERRIFYING!

Mariska Hargitay And Chris Meloni Are Staying With 'Law And Order: SVU'
All of you 'Law and Order: SVU' fans can breathe a sigh of relief: SVU stars Chris Meloni and Mariska Hargitay have both signed two-year deals to stay with the series. This is after months of what Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello called "tense negotiations."
[I]ndications are that a very happy compromise was forged that sweetens
the duo's $385K-per-episode salary. In exchange, both actors agreed to
add a second year to their pacts."
The show has only been renewed for one season, but since Mariska and Chris signed two-year deals, it means that if the show is renewed for a second season, they are guaranteed to be a part of it.

Is NBC Replacing Law And Order SVU Stars?
Law and Order: SVU may be a procedural show (meaning people watch mostly for the crime of the week, not to see what happens in the characters' lives), but NBC is reportedly considering the unthinkable: replacing SVU stars Mariska Hargitay and Chris Meloni, according to Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello.
'I don't think in this environment, there's any chance
they could re-launch the show with both of them gone,' says a
high-ranking exec at a rival network. 'It's a horrible time to retool a
show. They already have to change the time-slot, because it's not going
to be airing at 10 pm next season.' At the same time, a key Peacock
insider says, 'I can't imagine either actor walking away from over $7 million a
year.' "
This is occurring because NBC just renewed SVU for an 11th season. Everyone's salaries have to be renegotiated, including Mariska and Chris, who reportedly want more financial benefits in addition to their $350,000/per episode salaries.
To echo Ausiello: They. Wouldn't. Dare.

Law & Order: SVU star Mariska Hargitay is apparently in worse condition than was originally thought. Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello is reporting that Mariska had to undergo surgery last week; the problem is related to the collapsed lung she suffered in January.
An SVU insider adds that the actress' prognosis is excellent. 'She is doing great,' maintains my mole. 'She will recoup for a few
weeks and be back better than ever.' "
Luckily for you SVU fans, the time Mariska needs to take off will only force her to miss one episode (co-star Ice-T will take her place).
Let's join Ausiello in wishing Mariska a speedy recovery!
