Will Smith is opening up about his recent decision to vlog his colonoscopy, and what he's learned from the surprising experience.

The movie star walked the blue carpet at the premiere of his new animated film,, at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood on Wednesday, and ET's Kevin Frazier spoke with the 51-year-old actor about his recent decision to post a video of his recent medical procedure to Instagram.

"I was doin' it as a joke. I thought it was gonna be funny," Smith shared."Yeah, it turned out to not really be funny.". The actor was put to sleep during the procedure and cameras documented him waking up, laughing and going right back to sleep. The actor was still making jokes right after waking up from anesthesia.

Getting a colonoscopy turned out to be significant for Smith. In a video chat with his doctor, Dr. Ala Stanford, she tells him that they removed a polyp -- a pre-cancerous lesion -- in his colon, and sent it to the lab and the results were that it was pre-cancer tissues. "Had you not known, it continues to grow and grow," Stanford explained to Smith in the video, as she thanked him for listening to her and getting a colonoscopy even though it's uncomfortable."You would've had fewer typical symptoms. And by the time you presented, it could be full-blown and spread throughout your body. So, the fact that you were compliant ... we diagnosed early.
