Here is a pic of Mariska & Tamara Tunie at the Gala. Sorry for the watermarks. Re: Alec Baldwin-I agree with your feelings regarding him but maybe he isn't as bad as we think. He has been escorting Mariska at several functions and even arranged a Happy Birthday Greeting for her at the SAG Awards. Oh well. Speaking of Alec Baldwin, here is an interesting article: Mariska Hargitay Makes Us Cry, Alec Baldwin Makes Us Laugh www.tonic.com/article/taylor-swift-helps-rebuild-nashville-and-we-plan-to-crash-alec-baldwins-thanksgiving-dinner/If you've ever wanted to be invited to Alec Baldwin's place for Thanksgiving turkey, the right way to go about it is to swing by one of Mariska Hargitay's benefits. On Wednesday night, the Law and Order SVU lady cop threw her annual benefit for her foundation. Joyful Heart, which helps victims of domestic and sexual abuse. Mariska's best buddy Alec worked the room like a rock star, inviting dozens of guests to his place for turkey in November. It made everyone feel like family, as did Mariska's requirement that all attendees wear jeans. Yes, jeans ... to a benefit! The confusing part of the evening was that everywhere I looked I wasn't sure if I was seeing someone I knew or a cast member of Law and Order. Sometimes it's hard to tell the two apart. Chris Meloni was very cool about me mistaking him for my high school gym teacher. The kind of work Mariska does with the foundation is stuff she deals with daily on the set of SVU, so the dress code actually made a lot of sense and her friends Debra Messing and Hilary Swank looked even more glamorous in jeans than in black-tie. True story. "The charity was born out of what I have had to deal with for so long with the story lines of the show. After receiving letters from victims disclosing to me their personal stories I realized I wanted to do something about it and I felt like I had something to offer and my answer was this foundation," Mariska told me. This woman truly does it all. On top of her 15-hour tapings of one of the most popular shows on television, she commits herself to this foundation in ways that a lot of bold-facers who just sign checks and pose for pretty pictures would never do, plus she knows how to throw a seriously good party. Did we mention Cyndi Lauper performed "True Colors" in the middle of dinner?
