I normally wouldn't post an article like this because it's all speculation and gossipy. But it's kind of funny. And it at least partially identifies Mr. Piggy Back man as a friend of Michael's, not an agent or editor. Take this story with a grain of salt, and notice how they exclude Michael's other dance partner out of the story. I bet he's a full riot on St. Patty's Day.
Edit Feb 3: As per the comment section, it has been declared that it is indeed a falsehood about Michael being asked to leave. I smelled a whiff of bs, but the story was still funny - however, gossip rags are running to the hills with this story, so it's good that someone who represents GQ killed the rumor.

A DANGEROUS METHOD actor Michael Fassbender was asked to leave the after-party for his own movie after lighting up a cigarette indoors and becoming boisterous. The 34-year-old actor was in London this week for the premiere of the movie A Dangerous Method, which also stars Keira Knightley and Viggo Mortensen. After the stars had graced the red carpet on Tuesday, they celebrated the new release by going to exclusive eatery 34 in Mayfair.
Michael was clearly in high spirits and tried to convince his co-stars to dance with him.However, Michael’s enthusiasm reportedly became too much for other people at the party. "Michael was politely asked to leave. He was in good spirits but it was becoming a bit of a handful for the other guests,” a source told British newspaper The Sun. "He was grabbing his co-stars and waltzing around the room with them. He lit a cigarette indoors and that was the point it had gone too far."
However, MailOnline reports that both Michael and Keira decided to show off their moves together and turned the dining area into a makeshift dancefloor.
According to the publication “the two co-stars couldn't resist putting on a show for onlookers” as they moved around the restaurant. At one point, Michael even tried a complicated dance move as he “draped Keira over his arm and bent her backwards”.
Keira clearly enjoyed herself during the evening. She was seen laughing and kissing her boyfriend, musician James Righton, as they left the party together.
Fassbender left the party piggy back riding on the back of a friend.
Michael's co-star Keira has previously revealed the pair got through the more uncomfortable scenes in the film - which include Michael spanking her - by turning to alcohol. Keira said: "We only had one or two shots maximum. It was a vodka shot to calm our nerves and away you go really. Then we had champagne. We drank quite a lot of champagne actually. You can count on Michael to buy a bottle of champagne when one is required. The vodka and champagne is a good combination."
