He didn’t drop any condoms on the red carpet , but Will Smith experienced his own unusual situation during a movie premiere press line this week. The actor was in Moscow on behalf of Men in Black III when a reporter from the Ukraine embraced the star with a hug… and then tried to follow that up with a kiss on the lips. “He’s lucky I didn’t sucker punch him,” Smith is heard telling someone else soon afterward, though he responds very well from the saliva-based attack and is quickly seen below laughing about it. It’s hard to blame Smith for his initial, surprised reaction, though, isn’t it? Watch it all unfold now: Will Smith Shoves Reporter
The controversial new biography of President Barack Obama claims that his wife, Michelle Obama, planned to leave the future president in 2000. Is the divorce story real? Is anything in the book? The unauthorized biography, which Klein claims is based on nearly 200 interviews, has been dismissed by presidential spokesperson Eric Schultz. “Ed Klein has a proven history of reckless fabrication in order to sell books,” he said. “Nobody in their right mind would believe the nonsense in this one.” Nevertheless, the Obama divorce story is the latest revelation in the book – which also discusses his ex Genevieve Cook – to generate major buzz. In The Amateur: Barack Obama in the White House , out this week, Klein claims the divorce nearly happened eight years into the Obamas’ marriage. After Obama failed to listen to his wife’s warnings in challenging Bobby Rush for his U.S. House seat in 2000 and got creamed, their relationship cooled. “During the dark days that followed his defeat, he turned to Michelle for comfort. But she was in no mood for sympathy,” Klein reportedly writes. “He had refused to listen to her warnings about taking on Rush.” The primary left them in debt and Barack depressed, Klein claims. “Michelle actually had divorce papers drawn up,” he writes, citing one of her friends. “Obama was so depressed that some of his friends worried that he was suicidal,” the book adds, without elaboration on that particular point. Obama, of course, was still in the Illinois State Senate, and went on to win a U.S. Senate seat in 2004 that helped establish his national credentials. But Michelle almost vetoed the Senate race, too. Northwestern University professor Steven Rogers told Klein that Obama talked about his ambition after they met at a golf fund-raiser. “My wife will not allow me to run for the Senate until I clear up the debts from my unsuccessful run for Congress,” Obama said, according to Rogers.

Bobby Brown taped an interview with Matt Lauer this morning – for segments on The Today Show that will run Wednesday and Thursday – and made it a priority to defend himself against accusations that his hard-partying lifestyle played a role in the tragic death of Whitney Houston. “I didn’t get high before I met Whitney,” Brown says, seemingly blaming HER for HIS problems, although clarifying that he did smoke “weed” and drink prior to their relationship. But Brown emphasized that he wasn’t “the one that got Whitney on drugs at all” and that he feels “terrible” folks think otherwise. Because, really people, the important thing here is how Bobby Brown feels. Houston and Brown were married from 1992 to 2007 and are the parents of a daughter, Bobbi Kristina . The singer told Lauer that their one year of filming Being Bobby Brown had a profound affect on their recreational drug use. “The reality show gave us a wakeup,” he says. “We [were] able to see that our drug use had affected our relationship, had affected the love that we felt for each other.” When did Bobby last see Whitney? About a week prior to her passing. He said she “looked really well” at the time. Brown – who pleaded out a DUI arrest just this week in order to avoid jail time – said he was shocked and “hurt” when he learned Houston died with cocaine in her system. At the end of the day… “I love that woman with everything that I am. And I believe she loved me the same way. We wouldn’t have been able to make the most beautiful girl in the world – without love. And that’s the truth.”
