While in Moscow promoting the release of Men In Black III, Will Smith got himself into a bit of a situation when he responded to a Ukranian reporter's attempts to kiss him by angrily backhanding the reporter in the face. And, luckily, it was all caught on camera.

Here's what happened: Smith was working the red carpet when the reporter, who's known for often kissing celebrities he comes into contact with, leans in and ends up brushing his mouth across Smith's. Immediately, Smith pushes him away and slaps him, before muttering, "he's lucky I didn't sucker punch him." Then, realizing cameras are on him, he goes back to smiling and signing autographs. The best part is undoubtedly the look of pure horror face of the woman standing next to him, who we can only assume is his publicist or something.
