Come on, be honest. We'd all love to kiss lovely Will Smith on the face. But if you do ever get close enough to live this dream, we'd recommend that you ask his permission first. Because if you don't, you might get slapped in the face.
Will, 43, was innocently walking up the red carpet at the Russian premiere of Men In Black 3, and when he stopped to chat to reporters, one of them jumped up and grabbed Will - and kissed him on the face. Will managed to avoid the full-on mouth kiss (twice) by moving his face.
After the second lunge, shocked Will pushed his attacker back, looked very annoyed and tried to slap him in the face - only just tapping him. Considering Will played Mohammed Ali in the 2001 film, we think a light tap is a good result for everyone involved ...
"Hey man, what is your problem?" he shouted, before walking away. Don't worry though, Big Willie managed to recover enough to laugh about the incident later, telling another reporter, who didn't want to kiss him: "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."
The man in question, Vitalii Sediuk, is a known 'TV prankster' in Ukraine - his previous stunts include giving Madonna a bunch of hydrangeas. The video went viral when the singer thought her microphone was off and told an assistant: "I absolutely loath Hydrangeas. He obviously doesn't know that." Humour is obviously very different over there, eh?
It's nowhere near as good as Sacha Baron Cohen's Oscars red carpet stunt, where (as The Dictator) he tipped an urn full of ashes over E! TV's Ryan Seacrest. But, slightly better than the time Tom Cruise called someone from UK TV show Balls Of Steel a "jerk" for squirting water in his face at the London premiere of War Of The Worlds in 2005.
Meanwhile, Will's wife Jada Pinkett Smith (who, if we can take anything from her previous interviews, would have done a bit more than slapped the comedian in the face) was walking the red carpet in Cannes, France for her new film Madagascar 3.
Here's Will's kiss attack on video. Intense:
