Breathtaking.

Smith has demonstrated his proficiency with hitting like a girl in the past.

In 2012, Smith smacked a reporter who attempted to kiss him at the premiere of “Men in Black 3.”

Wrestler David Schultz enjoyed the satisfying fun of slapping reporters too! Note that, unlike most sharp thinkers, reporter John Stossel came back from seconds!

Celebrity superstar Burt Reynolds was a proponent of slapping reporters as well. At the premiere for the 2005 remake of “The Longest Yard,” the “Bandit” slapped a reporter for failing to see the 1974 original.

Burt Reynolds enjoyed the savory fun of slapping fellow celebrities around as well!

Here he is gracefully smashing a coffee mug into Marc Summers’ face on “The Tonight Show!”

Yes, slaphappy celebrities are beloved the world over!
