Kim Kardashian was the target of another stunt by celebrity prankster Vitalii Sediuk at an event during Paris Fashion Week.

According to the Daily Mail, Ukrainian prankster Vitalii Sediuk attempted to hug the reality star when she left her car with momager Kris Jenner and husband Kanye West. Many have reported that Kim was assaulted by the prankster, but Sediuk insists that he only tried to hug her.

"I hope Kim is OK and won't be mad at me as I didn't mean any harm," he said. "Kanye is one lucky man as Kim is a goddess!"

After recently discovering that he was banned from the U.S., Sediuk says he was trying to protest the U.S. ban by pranking Kim.  

"The prank with Kim was my protest that US banned me from entering the country," he said. "US Customs and Border Protection banned me from entering the United States. I flew from Paris to Los Angeles on September 12. It was a transfer flight via Istanbul (Sep13) in Turkey. But on my way to the plane after my passport was checked, the security officer told me they received a paper from CBP (US Border Protection) not to let me on the flight. So I wasn't able to fly to Los Angeles as my flight was cancelled without any refund."

Kim walked away unscathed by the incident.

Sediuk is known for his wild pranks, including burying his face into Leonardo DiCaprio's crotch, and trying to kiss Will Smith on the red carpet in 2012.
