“I am just so beyond, beyond, beyond, thrilled to be here for my friend,” said Hargitay in her speech. The Hollywood Walk of Fame means so many things to so many people. It’s a place to visit, it’s a place to celebrate, a place to remember, and of course, a place to take millions and millions and millions of selfies.
But I hold the Hollywood Walk of Fame so deeply and dearly in my heart for another reason. Because here I am and, forever will be, right next to my mother. Our stars shine side-by-side, and that makes this place unspeakably sacred to me,” Hargitay said, referring to her mother, late actress Jayne Mansfield.
