Jill Nicolini (born 1978) is a native of Long Island, New York. The model, actress and reality TV show participant joined WPIX-TV as a traffic reporter for the WB11 Morning News in April 2004 (now called the CW11 Morning News as of September 18, 2006).
Before becoming the WB11's morning traffic reporter, Nicolini made her living as a model. She tried out unsuccessfully to become the official live action model for Vampirella in 2001. She had big parts in four feature films and six TV shows, including HBO's Sex and the City and NBC's Law & Order.
At the age of 24, Nicolini won the title of Miss Long Island 2002. When the contest organizers discovered that she had posed for Playboy (under the name "Jill Nikki" in their Fall 2001 College Girls Special Edition), not only did she have to relinquish her crown, she was also rendered ineligible to compete in the Miss New York pageant.
She participated in the 2003 FOX reality television program Married by America and reached the finals. (She was credited on the show as "Jill Marie Nicoline" [1].) In August 2006, it was reported that she would be one of the women trying out to become a Pussycat Doll; the tryouts were filmed as part of an upcoming reality TV show detailing the process.
Jill has recently become a major cult sensation on satellite radio by virtue of her fellow Long Islanders, Opie and Anthony, who relentlessly mention her on their show. Opie and Anthony recently aired a clip that demonstrated Jill's serious journalistic side when she was asked to report on a suspicious package causing delays at New York's Holland Tunnel. The duo were greatly impressed by her change from bubbly to professional when the situation dictated, especially when the bomb disposal robot approached the site.
On July 19, 2007, Jill appeared live on the Opie and Anthony Show.
