Emmy Video: 'SVU' duo Hargitay and Meloni get hot and bothered on red carpet

meloni-hargitayWhen I asked Law & Order: SVU superstars Mariska Hargitay and Chris Meloni if they thought their characters should hook up during the show’s upcoming 12th and possibly final season, I did not expect the randy pair to actually preview said hookup—and on the Emmy red carpet, no less. Not that I was complaining, mind you. My follow-up question provoked an even more shocking reaction, but not from them, from their publicist, who was so incensed with my line of questioning that he ripped them away from me mid-Q&A. And just like that, a legendary interview was born. Enjoy!

    OMFG!! I love it, you’re a genius-and I have been waiting 12 long years too so they need to get together like…NOW! And this interview was legendary!!

    • Rumplestiltskin

      How can something be legendary if it just happened? Learn English.

      • Maggie

        Obviously doesn’t watch “How I Met Your Mother”…………

      • SG1212

        To Maggie: jajaja! exactly!

      • Alia

        Goodness, Rump. Learn manners.

    • Anon

      Something new can’t be legendary. it can be epic, but not legendary.

      • Sam

        HIMYM!!!!! get with the program!

    • kukumo

      They just said they are NOT getting together.

      • AlexC

        i agree!!

  • Kate

    Evil publicist!!! Tease! I can’t wait to see what happens this season on SVU!

  • Laura

    I think I may have just died. They are such teases! If they weren’t so hot, I’d be mad at them for all the teasing!

    • Meloni & Hargitay rule the world.

      I agree. Great interview, Mike. Thanks! Chris & Mariska are the best.

  • kukumo

    what do their spouses think of this stuff they do? LOL

    • omukuk

      They think, “wow that is so disrespectful of us – oh wait, they’re funning around and we’re not stickinthemud/trolls like kukumo.”

      • Chaz Winterbottom

        Wait, their spouses know Kukumo? HOW?

      • Kris

        everyone knows Kukumo!

  • Susan

    I know they must do this a lot for tv and their many fans,but I seriously do wonder what each of their respective spouses think of the way CM &MH ham it up for the cameras whenever possible.I know she commented that she worked with Vera Wang to duplicate her wedding dress feel and look, as it is her anniversary- just not to CM!They are really either unbelievable actors- or seriously in love with each other.They both have families and kids, too.Even if this is the last season for SVU- they both indicate a hook up will never happen. I enjoy them on their show but maybe it’s time to pull back and put things in perspective.

    • lilkunta

      ? MH went to vera wang for her emmy dress? was today her wedding anniv?
      why didnt eachh come w their spouse?

    • Amy

      Mariska Hargitay met her husband on the show; he regularly plays one of the snarky defense lawyers. I think it’s simply good acting/chemistry. I would love if they wrapped up the series with them getting together; but not if it was done in a sappy way.

    • wtfnyc

      And I see Christ Meloni with his totally cute family running around in Tribeca all the time looking happy as can be. So I don’t think their spouses feel too bad about it.

    • Mandy

      LOLOLOL These two are NOT in love with each other – on the show nor in real life!! The chemistry they share on screen is good but I have never seen anything romantic or sexual in the reaction between the two characters

  • June

    They both played it perfectly. They should get Awards for that performance alone. Cool.

    • Mandy

      It was obvious they were playing around with Ausiello!!!

  • tamara

    hahha!! that was fun to watch!!

  • Susan

    LOL- you can really tell they are jus joking around with Michael A. and playing it up for the camera!I viewed it for a second time.They clearly like each a a lot and they do work well together- so no harm, no foul!Keep on keepin on, it keeps their fans happy

  • Betsy

    HOT HOT HOT. i wish they would, so the fans could see it, but i agree that while Olivia may pine, Elliot wouldn’t cheat on his wife and 5 kids.

    • chattypatra

      First, Olivia is not the only one who pines in that relationship. Second, she would never betray Elliot’s wife and children because she respects them. Unless they give us the romance in a dream sequence, we will never see it.

      • HGFM

        Olivia is the only one interested in having a sexual relationship with Elliot. He is not interested in her that way and never has been.

  • jorie

    They’re ACTORS, dudes. It’s all pretend, get it???

  • jessie

    this was amazing i LOVE the two of them!!! and i really wish that their characters would hook up it would be awesome, but i doubt that Elliot would cheat on his wife with anyone even Olivia!! to bad :( LOL

  • Kristen

    I love them!!!! Darn Publicist!!! I can’t wait until SVU comes back on in a month!!!

  • Holla Atcha

    if that publicist wasn’t so hot he would deserve a smack down. michael you should get back at him for ending the interview by throwing him into fits of ecstasy and passion.

  • Scobes

    MELONI. I think I just died a little.

  • paula

    totally loved that interview!! and i certainly hope its not the last season. they are so awesome together
