'Dancing' star Marini suffers shoulder injury

Speaking to Access Hollywood, a representative for the actor confirmed that he had separated his shoulder during training but that he still intended to dance.
The 33-year-old, who recently appeared in Sex And The City: The Movie, was the highest scoring contestant in the show's premiere episode, scoring 24 out of a possible 30 points for his cha cha cha with dance partner Cheryl Burke.
Marini's injury is the latest in a string of ailments to plague the ABC dancing programme. Popstar Jewel was forced to pull out after fracturing both tibia in rehearsals, while Access host Nancy O'Dell dropped out because of a torn meniscus in her knee.
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has reportedly also suffered a knock, after he was photographed wearing a protective boot on his foot. Representatives for the 58-year-old have yet to comment.
