Guess Who This Cutie With Braids Turned Into!

Before this adorable little girl in her floral top was studying scripts, she was just growing up as an only child, moving to Hollywood when she was only 11 years old and babysitting for Bob Saget.

She would later gain much success working alongside Saget in "How I Met Your Mother," but perhaps you'd also recognize her from her popular role, "the band geek," which she portrayed from 1999-2012 alongside Jason Biggs.

Need one more clue? She has two kiddos with her hubby who she met on "Buffy The Vampire Slayer."

Can you guess who this cutie "pie" is?

Justin Timberlake Body Cam Footage Not Coming Out ... Both Sides Agreed to Seal

Justin Timberlake already pled guilty to driving while ability impaired ... and, that's that, it seems -- 'cause the public probably isn't gonna see footage from his arrest.

Las Vegas Brothels Don't Use Baby Oil As Lube, Diddy ... And 1,000 Bottles Is Crazy!!!

Diddy Judge Throws Out $100 Mil Judgment In Battle With Michigan Inmate

The embattled rapper scored the legal win during a motion hearing Wednesday ... where one of his attorneys, David Fink, convinced the judge to set aside the massive judgment because inmate Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith -- who claims Diddy drugged and sexually assaulted him at a 1997 Detroit party -- failed to prove he effectively served the lawsuit in accordance with Michigan law.

Judge Anna Marie Anzalone also scrapped the temporary restraining order stopping Diddy from selling off any assets to cover damages ... noting Diddy has a likelihood of winning the case on statute of limitations grounds because Cardello-Smith's claims date back to an alleged incident in 1997.
