Looks like Taylor Swift might be joining Mariska Hargitay's other squad soon.

The BFFs teamed up for Swift's epic "Bad Blood" video and it sounds like they are about to work together again as Hargitay recently revealed she has talked to Swift about guest-starring on Law & Order: SVU.

"We just talked about it," Hargitay told Entertainment Tonight. "We're going to wait until the end of the [1989 World] tour to see how it goes. But it's in the air." 

In case you were wondering, Swift's tour comes to an end in mid-December, which means she probably wouldn't show up on the show in the first half of the upcoming season. Patience, it's a virtue.

For now, we can only guess what kind of role Swift would tackle on the drama. Would she be a perp? A victim? Or maybe a long-lost relative of one of the characters? The possibilities are endless.

It shouldn't come as too much of a surprise to loyal Swifties that Swift would guest star on the longrunning NBC drama as she named one of her beloved cats after Benson's character, Detective Olivia Benson. (The other cat is named after Ellen Pompeo's Grey's Anatomy character, Meredith Grey.)

But Swift might have a presence on the show before her 1989 tour ends, as showrunner Warren Leight  told ET, "We're thinking of naming a squad room cat Taylor." Hargitay added, "The squad room needs to get a cat or I need to get a cat and name it Taylor. Either one!"

Law and Order: SVU returns with its two-hour premiere Wednesday, Sept. 23 at 9 p.m. on NBC.

(E! and NBC are both part of the NBCUniversal family.)
