Tonight, Gilles Marini will take to the ballroom floor for the quickstep on "Dancing with the Stars," but before the sexy Frenchman defends his first place position on the "Dancing" leader board, he is on "The Insider" stage with our Lara Spencer. "I really want to show the judges I can be classical," he says of his struggle this week to learn the classical frame necessary to score well when dancing the quickstep. "As soon as you get it, you don't move the frame, just your feet. I got to get there. Not to move my frame is the hardest thing." But it is also a lucky thing that he only needs to move his feet, because last week the 'Sex and the City: The Movie' hottie was dancing with a painful, separated shoulder. He says the quickstep will be easier on his arm -- once he gets it down. "The doctor said anything can happen," Gilles tells Lara. To alleviate Gilles' condition, the doctor injected him with cortisone and the "DWTS" competitor says he is going to follow the doctor's advice -- as well as that of his professional partner, Cheryl Burke. "Cheryl always tells me, 'Listen to your body,'" he explains. "We pushed a little bit too much." Tonight, Gilles' mother will be in the audience for his performance, and he says he wants to surprise her with his new moves. He, also, would like to surprise his 'Sex and the City' co-star, Kim Cattrall with his new talent. "Hopefully, she will come to the show and I can show her some moves, because the moves on 'Sex and the City' were different." "Dancing with the Stars" airs tonight at 8 p.m. on ABC.
