Mariska Hargitay Wants to Perform on Broadway!

According to NY Magazine, television star Mariska Hargitay, who recently showed off her voice in NBC's 'Brotherhood of Man' commercial, would like to take her talents to the stage. She told NYM: "It's been my secret dream to be on Broadway, so this is my foray."

She added on the commercial: "When they asked me to do it, they sent me the Amy Poehler clip, and she was killing it! I loved her! So I thought, 'Oh my God, Amy can sing, and I don't sing,' and I've never been more scared."
