Actor Gilles Marini of Sex and the City and Dancing with the Stars joins me to talk about life as a young man in France, his role as a special forces soldier, modeling, acting, raising his children, and the need for education to affect change.
▶︎ WATCH the full Gilles Marini interview at Hollywood Real with Jay Menez on YouTube.
A former French Army firefighter, Gilles migrated to Miami to pursue modeling. He soon caught the acting bug and ended up in Los Angeles to become the artist who is today creating a positive impact through his craft.
Since then, he’s appeared on dozens of hit shows and movies, including Sex and the City, Brothers & Sisters, and Days of Our Lives. He almost won Season 8 of Dancing with the Stars and returned to compete in Season 15.
Gilles was honored by People Magazine as a Sexiest Man Alive.
