MARIA PITILLO

You've seen Maria Pitillo before. She has appeared in everything from Dear God and She-Devil on the big screen to Ryan's Hope and Partners  on TV.

But this will be the year you really see her. The twentysomething New Yorker with the curly blond locks--which used to be flowing brunette tresses, by the way--stars on the NBC sitcom House Rules, a midseason replacement also featuring former Homefront hunk David Newsom and centering on a trio of pals in Colorado. (Think Friends in the snow.)

Now, brace yourself for Pitillo's next project. Come Labor Day, she stands side by side with Matthew Broderick and a certain oversize lizard in this summer's leading blockbuster candidate, Godzilla. Pitillo plays Audrey Timmonds, an aspiring TV reporter who's hellbent on getting the story when the big green lug wreaks havoc on the Big Apple.

Just how will Pitillo celebrate her coming out? Her new place on the beach in Southern California is a start. It's a long way from her Big Apple roots--a smart move considering the damage Godzilla's about to inflict on the city.
