Good for WIll. I believe that even actors should be protected from sexual harassment.

[sonofagun]

Good for Will!

That was sexual assault Will defended himself against!

[Colonel Kangaroo]

That man assaulted Smith. I would not have faulted him had he broke the guy’s jaw.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I’ll bet the Ukrainian guy mistook Smith for Barry.

[Telepathic Intruder]

I can’t wait to see what the Left decides is worse: homophobia or racism.

[Lazamataz]

I hope he used the Neuralizer afterward, to prevent any lawsuit.

"I never slapped you. And you NEVER want to try to kiss me again."

"Oh, and you are no longer gay. You love women now."

[spodefly]

Anyone that deliberately invades your personal space gets whatever comes to them ...

But having watched the video, I got the impression that the guy was just trying to do one of those continental ‘men kissing on the cheeks’ things and it went awry.

[dragonblustar]

He’ll be labeled a homophobe!

[ReformationFan]

That’s it. Will Smith’s Hollyweird career is over.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Should have kicked him in the mangina.

[melancholy]

Will Smith gave a backhanded slap to a male Ukrainian television reporter who tried to kiss him on the mouth at the Men in Black III premiere in Moscow. The reporter from channel 1+1, Vitalii Sediuk, often kisses celebrities as part of his routine. Smith was not amused. 'What the hell is your problem buddy?' he said when the reporter's back-patting hug turned into an attempted kiss

Uh oh! "Slapping the guy is a distraction, but accusing the reporter of HAVING A PROBLEM is a major offense! I'll order H0lder to investigate this hate speech." 0h0m0 would have undoubtedly said if he was asked!

Skin color aside, how is Will going to explain this to 0h0m0 after coming out of the closet? After all, it wasn’t a Republican White male who got incensed, it was a bro!

[AmonAmarth]

Where I come from, if a man u don’t know tries to kiss u on the lips, he could expect a broken nose.

[PGR88]

I agree with Will. I’ve lived in a lot of different countries, and kissing another guy on the lips means pretty much the same thing that it means in the USA - you’re a FAG.

[Darren McCarty]

Only a slap? I'd be throwing a right hook. You just don't do certain things.

I'm not Italian, and even Italians don't kiss other guys on the mouth.

[MtnClimber]

Wil gave a gay slap. Myself, I would first have given an uppercut to the chin. Then a left and then a right to under the ears. If stil standing a kick to the groin. Gay sex assault 100 for those who don’t know how to discourige it.

[BillyBoy]

>> a male Ukrainian television reporter often kisses celebrities as part of his routine <<

[Ellendra]

If anybody, guy or girl, tried to kiss me on the lips without permission, I’d react the same way Mr. Smith did. This is a non-story.

[dfwgator]

Reportedly a few minutes later, Will with his arm around the reporter told him, “I’m parked by the commissary.....”

[married21]

In the early 90s I went to a salon where the former Mrs. Kevin Costner had been a customer. She told the facialist (who then told me, so, yes, this is total gossip) that women were really physically invasive to her husband. He would walk down the street and some rude woman would come up behind him and grab his crotch or his butt. The Things that women would be totally offended by if it were done by a strange guy to them, they thought nothing of doing to a male celebrity.

I don’t blame Will for fighting back. They all should do more to fight off oafs.

[ThunderSleeps]

Mr. Smith’s stock just went up a couple of notches relative to the usual Hollywood types in my book.
