There's been no new news out of cagey superflack Leslie Sloane Zelnick about Mariska Hargitay's hospitalization for a collapsed lung, but her Law & Order: SVU costar Richard Belzer is finally speaking out.

Today on The View, Belzer briefly confirmed that Hargitay did indeed suffer her injuries in a sledding accident. He pronounced the actress on the mend: "Mariska is doing great. She's absolutely OK. If you believe in it, say a prayer for her. If you don't, send her appealing thoughts...we love you, Mariska."
