A Texas man is on the receiving end of heavy social media backlash after accusing former adult actress, Mia Khalifa, of punching him in the face while trying to take a selfie without permission.
The 20-year-old man, who gave his name as Jared during an interview with the San Antonio Express-News, spotted Mia Khalifa at a concert in Austin on June 23. The Lebanese adult film star was seen sporting glasses and a tight gray at the venue. After he ran up to snap the pic, Jared says Khalifa punched him in the jaw.

Jared said that he only walked up to Mia Khalifa after seeing other fans who approached her and were able to take pictures without incident.
"Since me and my friends had already been ignored when we asked for a picture, I just decided to do what the others were doing," he said. "I walked ahead of her to the side and took a picture as she came up, making sure I wasn't in her space."
Jared said that the punch wasn't severe enough in order to involve the police.
"Honestly, it wasn't a big deal. I was just happy to have gotten a picture with her, but now there's all this drama and I'm not sure if it was worth posting," he said. "I posted just for my friends to have a good laugh at the situation, not to stir social arguments."
