Hellraiser Rhys Ifans was kicked out of a London club last night after sparking up a cigarette.

The 40-year-old actor was guest of honour with his "friend" Sienna Miller at the launch of Soho's new underground nightspot Maya last night.

The pair were with two other friends, enjoying a magnum of Dom Perignon when Ifans decided to light up.

An onlooker said: "Sienna and Rhys were having a great time, they appeared very close and were necking the champagne they had been given by the club hosts.

"However, when Rhys lit his fag the hostess immediately asked him to leave and the foursome hotfooted it out of the back door."

Other guests at the launch included Sienna's stepmother Kelly Hoppen, and Nicky Clarke.
