Cheeky! Will Smith pinches Jada Pinkett's behind as they arrive at Rihanna's Diamond Ball
WILL SMITH appeared to be having a lot of fun as he arrived at Rihanna's Diamond Ball in Los Angeles last night.
As he and his wife Jada Pinkett posed for pictures on the red carpet, the actor cheekily went in for a pinch of her pert derrière.
Will recently described their marriage as "gruelling" and "excruciating" but it looked like things were about to heat up for the couple of 20 years judging by his actions at the star-studded event.
The 47-year-old was dapper in a black tuxedo complete with a bow tie and pocket handkerchief.
Jada, meanwhile, looked incredible in a floor-length, one-shoulder white Zuhair Murad dress.
The garment featured a sexy, thigh-high split that showed off the stars toned legs while the open-zip detailing that ran from her shoulder to her hip, teased onlookers with a glimpse of her chest.
The 44-year-old accessorised the look with strappy silver sandals, a diamond bracelet and long silver chandelier earrings.
Will's cheeky pinch may have been revenge for Jada slapping him yesterday morning to inform him of his Golden Globe nomination.
The evolution of Will Smith
He told the New York Times: "My wife slapped me out of my sleep to wake me up and tell me. She was just so ecstatic.
"It was like a really great married moment. We were so bound together. It was us, it was ours, "we" were nominated. It was a great recognition of how far we've come as a couple."
The Pursuit of Happyness actor recently confessed to Entertainment Weekly: "We've been married 20 years and we've been asking ourselves [what's the secret to marriage] and really at the end of the day it's just not quitting.
"You can't expect it to be easy. It's like our marriage was the most difficult, gruelling, excruciating thing that we have ever taken on in our lives. And you know we're just not quitters."
