Will Smith slapped a reporter at the premiere of his new movie in Russia.
The 43-year-old Men In Black 3 actor slapped the male journalist across the face after he made two attempts to kiss him.
Ukrainian television joker Vitalii Sediuk made a play for Will as he went to interview him for his TV show.
However Vitalii’s tries at locking lips with the screen star failed when the Summertime rapper managed to make several turns with his head at the same time as being gripped in a hug.
An angry Will told the prankster, “Hey man, what the hell is your problem?” After slapping him and moving on down the line of press members, he later laughed the incident off.
He told another uninvolved reporter, “He tried to kiss me on the mouth. He’s lucky I didn’t try to sucker punch him... Sorry, I said that on camera.”

He said, “For me, it’s going to be... tough to leave New York City. And it’s definitely an end of an era. It was college for everyone really.”
He told Parade magazine of the show’s cancelation, “If I got to write the show, it would be a very different thing.”
