Gilles Marini and Steve-O: More Than Just Friends

Apr 6, 2009 at 10:15am

Move over, Brody Jenner, there’s a new bromance brewing in Hollywood!

Former Jackass star Steve-O and actor Gilles Marini might be competing against each other on the eight season of Dancing With The Stars, but they only have love for each other off the dance floor.

Giles spoke kindly about his buddy when he was a guest on Friday’s The Bonnie Hunt Show, admitting, “We have a bromance…I believe that Steve-O has an amazing story to tell. It’s very inspiring for all those kids out there who are having trouble with drug additions. He made it happen. He’s a year sober, and he’s doing a fantastic show and a fantastic job turning it around.”

Marini’s partner, Cheryl Burke, confirms the friendship, saying the two are inseperable on set. “Steve-O actually came up to me and said, ‘Too bad Gilles is married,’” she told Hunt. “I’ve got a big crush on him after seeing him perform [the tango].’”

Aww. It’s nice to hear something DWTS-related that is not related to broken bones, stalkers, or bruised ribs.
