Amelia sent me a link to this gorgeous, gorgeous 2010 calendar yesterday because she knows how much I love Gilles Marini, and holy, hot tomato on toast, it’s gonna be a good year! I couldn’t keep this all to myself — that would simply be cruel — so consider this post a public service announcement or an early Christmas gift from me to you. Go ahead — take a look at some beautiful photos of Marini, shot by his long-time friend, award-winning photographer Fred Goudon, whom he met 15 years ago while the two were fulfilling their military obligations in Paris. In fact, it was Goudon who helped launch Marini’s career. Thank you, Goudon, for giving us such a beautiful body of work. See a few more, after the jump … Keep reading »
For the last three months, I’ve been a bit of an unwitting viewer of “Dancing with the Stars.” I haven’t watched it religiously, I never set my DVR to record it, and I never watched an entire episode from start to finish, but most Monday evenings, I could probably be found tuning in for at least a few minutes. The truth is I watched for one reason and one reason only, and that was to lust over gorgeous Gilles Marini (the “naked guy” from the “Sex and the City” movie). If you’ve caught his dancing this season, you may have been as surprised as I was to learn he didn’t win the title last night.

Did you see that movie? You know the guy who lives next to Samantha and has tons of sex? Well, not only is he quite attractive, but he also seems like a really hardworking family guy. The 32-year-old French actor Gilles Marini has been inundated with phone calls, emails, and job offers since the movie (and his goods) premiered, but he sounds so nice! “I just was not expecting this at all,” he told Reuters. “Maybe people will see me as the naked guy for a bit but as soon as someone gives me a chance to do something else I can prove I can do that. “I am not 18 years-old with this smacking me in the face so that I lose control of what I am. It is a blessing. I am very humbled and touched by all the attention. It is wonderful for my life, for my family and for my future.” Also, if you’re logged into MySpace, you can view this sepia-tone photo of him with Johnny Depp on the set of Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End.
