It all started when Smith was on the Moscow red carpet on Friday at the "Men In Black 3" premiere. A male Ukranian journalist kissed Smith, who was none too pleased, lightly slapping the reporter in response.
Video of the incident soon went viral, leading Smith to speak out during an appearance on the "Late Show."
"It's just awkward Dave," Smith said of the kiss.
"[The people at the premiere] were like 'Oh, we're sorry, that's just his schtick.' And I said, 'Well that's why his a** got schtuck,'" Smith said, drawing laughter from the "Late Show" audience.
