Will Smith Backhands A Reporter Who Tries To Kiss Him

By: Sara

Will Smith is often described as one of the nicest guys in Hollywood. Quick with a laugh and a joke, and usually playful with reporters, Will lost his cool at the Moscow premiere of "Men in Black 3". A MALE reporter got a little too "kissy", and Smith immediately put the smack down.

The Ukrainian reporter, Vitalii Sediuk, is known for stunt reporting (he is the same guy who ticked off Madonna by giving her flowers she hates). This time, Vitalii purposely stirred things up by taking cheek kissing to the next level and planting one on Will's lips. Smith shoved the reporter back, lightly smacked the guy and said, "Come on, man, what the hell is your problem, buddy?" Quickly moving down the line, Will told another reporter, "He tried to kiss me on the mouth. He's lucky I ain't sucker punch him."

I wonder what Aunt Viv and Uncle Phil would say?
