"Will Smith has spoken about slapping a journalist at the Moscow premiere of Men in Black III. Speaking on last night&amp;#039;s Late Show with David Letterman, the Hollywood actor defended his behaviour towards Ukrainian reporter Vitalii Sediuk.   Smith told Letterman: &amp;quot;I didn&amp;#039;t beat up a guy! We&amp;#039;re doing an interview and he says, &amp;#039;I&amp;#039;m your biggest fan, can I have a hug?&amp;#039; So I go to give this joker a hug, and he tries to lean in and kiss me! It&amp;#039;s just awkward. &amp;quot;They were saying, &amp;#039;We&amp;#039;re sorry, that&amp;#039;s just his schtick&amp;#039;. Well that&amp;#039;s why his ass got schtuck.&amp;quot; The 43-year-old has been busy in recent weeks promoting Men in Black III, his first film since 2008&amp;#039;s Seven Pounds.
