Mariska Hargitay, known for her role as Olivia Benson in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, hosted the 2016 Joyful Revolution Gala in NYC. Her co-star Stephanie March and other celebrities were in attendance to support Hargitay's foundation, The Joyful Heart Foundation, which helps survivors of abuse. Mariska was dressed in a rose and silver patterned gown with a flowing train while Stephanie dazzled in a silvery gown. The event featured performances from Natalie Merchant and Raúl Esparza and DJ Samantha Ronson. The VIP ticket included a red-carpet walk, dinner, and cocktails. The foundation has branches in New York City, Los Angeles, and Honolulu, aiming to help victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse.
