Gilles Marini and Cheryl Burke take the stage next. He is the naked guy from the Sex and the City movie. In rehearsal, Cheryl reprimands Gilles for being too feminine, and works extra-hard to overcome his lack of fanbase. They've got the cha cha cha tonight, and you know what? I'm rather impressed. I think he's got a lot of potential. It's a sexy, sassy routine, and he's got pretty good technique for a beginner. Carrie Ann is all praise, Bruno calls it "tight, sharp and sexy" and winks at Cheryl for getting a hottie. Len rounds out the praise, complimenting both Gilles and Cheryl. The scores: Carrie Ann gives 8, Len gives 8 and Bruno gives 8, for a 24 out of 30.
