NEW YORK, Nov. 2 (UPI) -- U.S. actor Harrison Ford called "Late Night" host Jimmy Fallon "a puss" before piercing the younger man's ear on air during the show.

Ford appeared on the NBC talk show Friday, telling Fallon about the time he got his ear pierced 15 years ago, The Hollywood Reporter said.

"It was a friend of mine's birthday, and we had a kind of long lunch," Ford said, implying he was drunk.

He said he noticed both of his friends had earrings, so he decided to get his ear pierced at the next piercing shop he found.

Ford then offered to pierce Fallon's ear.

Before the procedure, Ford donned a white lab coat and latex gloves, and took a shot of tequila meant to be for Fallon to help dull the pain. Fallon screamed out before the piercing began, causing Ford to remark, "What a puss."

Ford pierced Fallon's ear with a feather earring to match his own, The Hollywood Reporter said.
