Taking care of his to-do list, Shia Labeouf made his way around Sherman Oaks, California during the Memorial Day holiday on Monday (May 27).
The ?Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen? hunk picked up some reading material at the local newsstand and nabbed a frozen beverage at the Crave Caf before heading home.
And it seems that Shia won?t be having actual sex on-camera in his forthcoming flick ?Nymphomaniac? after all.
Producer Louise Vesth told press, "We shot the actors pretending to have sex and then had the body doubles, who really did have sex, and in post we will digital-impose the two. So above the waist it will be the star and below the waist it will be the doubles."
She added, "[Director] Lars [Von Trier] has thrown everything in this one. It's about religion, about God, about philosophy. There's so much to talk about with this movie."

Shia Labeouf is an asshole. He’ll be the first to admit it. Like when he was working with Mia Wasikowska on the set ofLawless, he admitted being a belligerent ass towards her. “Mia was ready to walk away from the movie. I was really pretty aggressive about it, and not in any kind of weird, strange way, but I don?t think she had ever experienced anything like that.”
This was partly due to the fact that Shia likes to keep things method so he’d always show up drunk. “I did it for the movie. I didn?t drink off set for no reason. I did it because, when I showed up on set the next day, my f**king eyes looked like this and my face? had that drunk bloat that I needed, that I couldn?t have if that wasn?t going on. Moonshine is different than liquor. Moonshine is closer to heroin.”
Which is a good primer before talking about what happened when Shia Labeouf withdrew from the Broadway playOrphans. Shia was supposed to be acting alongside Alec Baldwin but the old “creative differences” got in the way.Orphans director Daniell Sullivan grew concerned that the direction LaBeouf was going didn’t jibe with where he wanted it to go. He spoke to Shia and producers, but when nothing improved, they all decided to replace Shia.
On Wednesday morning, Shia tweeted an email he wrote and a few of the responses. It was so pretentious you just want to slap Shia in the face to remind him he was in Transformers. Three times.
My dad was a drug dealer. He was a shit human. But he was a man. He taught me how to be a man. What I know of men, Alec is. A man is good at his job. Not his work, not his avocation, not his hobby. Not his career. His job. A man can look you up and down and figure some things out. Before you say a word, he makes you. From your suitcase, from your watch, from your posture. A man infers.
A man owns up. That?s why Mark McGwire is not a man. A man grasps his mistakes. He lays claim to who he is, and what he was, whether he likes them or not. Some mistakes, though, he lets pass if no one notices. Like dropping the steak in the dirt.
He does not rely on rationalizations or explanations. He doesn?t winnow, winnow, winnow until truths can be humbly categorized, or intellectualized, until behavior can be written off with an explanation. A man knows his tools and how to use them ? just the ones he needs. Knows which saw is for what, how to find the stud. A man does not know everything. He doesn?t try. He likes what other men know. A man can tell you he was wrong. That he did wrong. That he planned to. He can tell you when he is lost. He can apologize, even if sometimes it?s just to put an end to the bickering. Alec, I?m sorry for my part of a dis-agreeable situation.
Daniel Sullivan responded, “I?m too old for disagreeable situations. You?re one hell of a great actor. Alec is who he is. You are who you are. You two are incompatible. I should have known it. This one will haunt me. You tried to warn me. You said you were a different breed. I didn?t get it.” Translation: what kind of hissy fit was that?
Shia posted up Alec Baldwin’s response too.
I?ve been through this before. It?s been a while. And perhaps some of the particulars are different. But it comes down to the fact that what we all do now is critical. Perhaps especially fro you. When the change comes, how do we handle it, whether it be good or bad? What do we learn? I don?t have an unkind word to say about you. You have my word. ? AB
Acting is the difference between life and death! Gawd, actors are so dramatic. You’re reading lines off a script not performing brain surgery.
Below is Shia’s audition video he also posted. I wonder what 24-year-old Bradley Cooper would think about this.

Shia Labeouf tells MTV that he dropped acid while filmingThe Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman. Not because he loves drugs but he wanted to fully immerse himself in character.The film tells the story of a man who goes to Romania after his mother’s death and falls in love with a woman (Evan Rachel Wood) who’s a crime boss’ girlfriend. At one point in the movie, his character drops acid.
“I’d never done acid before. I remember sending Evan tapes. I remember trying to conjure this and sending tapes. And Evan being like ‘That’s good, but that’s not but, that is,’” LaBeouf told MTV. “You reach out to friends and gauge where you’re at. I was sending tapes around and I’d get 50 percents from people and that just starts creeping me out. I was getting really nervous toward the end. Not cause I wanted to be on drugs — I’m not trying to mess with the set or anything like that. It’s really just fear that propels people.”
Gosh, acting is tough. Not only does Shia have to read lines off a piece of paper, but he has to drop acid in order to make a scene authentic and simulate sex with his co-star in Lars von Trier’sNymphomaniac. I don’t know how he does it.

Keeping up on his physical fitness regimen, Shia Labeouf showed up at a local gym in Hollywood, California yesterday afternoon (December 11).
Sporting an electric blue t-shirt with black track pants, the ?Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen? hunk kept his head down as he headed inside after hitting up a coffee shop.
Meanwhile, Shia has made no secret of his decision to get into more serious acting gigs, and to that end he?ll star in the Broadway play ?Orphans.?
LaBeouf will work along with Alec Baldwin on the project, slated to begin preview performances on March 19th, 2013 at the Schoenfeld Theater before the April 7th opening night.

Here are some photos of Shia Labeouf pumping gas yesterday (Wednesday), and it’s safe to say that Shia is definitely no Joseph Gordon Levitt, right? Shia just doesn’t have the same level of nonchalant aplomb as JGL even though are both entirely unrepentant hipsters. In any event, here’s a follow-up on our recent story of Shia’s breakup with his long-suffering girlfriend, stylist Karolyn Pho, after two long years of dating. It turns out that perhaps the very public fight between Shia and Karolyn in August may have been an indication of the beginning of the end. That was about the same time that Shia had confirmed that he’d be having actual (totally “method”) sex while filming Lars von Trier’s N*mphomaniac. Now and in a not-so-surprising move, Shia has been revealed to have started a new relationship with his N*mpho co-star, Mia Goth (shown here with Shia.) Here are the details:
Is Shia Labeouf a real-life n*mphomaniac? The actor has reportedly parted ways with his longtime girlfriend in favor of N*mphomaniac costar Mia Goth, the 19-year-old actress he got close to while shooting Lars von Trier’s upcoming film.
LaBeouf quietly split from stylist/designer Karolyn Pho “a while ago” after two years of dating, a source told UsWeekly, and things have reportedly been heating up with Goth ever since. “They’ve kept their relationship under wraps, but they pretty much started dating after he broke off things with Karolyn a few months ago,” a source told RadarOnline.
LaBeouf and Goth were spotted together on the day before Thanksgiving as they made a low-key Starbucks run in Los Angeles, and the new couple are reportedly already very comfortable together. “He got to know Mia on set and quickly became enamored of her,” the source said, according to Radar. “They have similar interests, they love alternative music, thrift stores and she is edgy and funny, which Shia loves.”
And despite his recent split, LaBeouf is apparently ready to dive into his new relationship, even meeting Goth?s parents in her native London. “They’re already spending a lot of time together, not just with work, but also have been hitting the town,” the source said. “Mia has made Shia very happy and he’s certainly found a party buddy for the time being.”
LaBeouf’s breakup may come as no surprise to fans who saw him engage in a heated fight with Pho on the streets of Los Angeles this summer. The couple’s relationship reportedly hit the skids over LaBeouf’s work on von Trier’s controversial new film, in which the actors engage in real sex scenes. “They’ve been on the rocks ever since Shia agreed to star in N*mphomaniac,” a source told RadarOnline. “Karolyn doesn’t want him having sex with somebody else – simple.”
“Karolyn gets that Shia likes to go method and appreciates his artistic integrity,” a source told RadarOnline at the time. “However, she thinks performing a real sex scene in a movie is going too far. It’s difficult for her to understand why it can?t be simulated — just like in other films.”
But Pho, 23, later told the Daily News the split wasn’t over LaBeouf’s onscreen sex life. “It’s none of anybody’s business,” she said. Everything is fine with us. It was nothing affiliated with his movie.”
[From NY Daily News]
Seriously, I can’t blame Karolyn for having a serious problem with Shia performing actual sex as opposed to simulated sex on camera. There’s a reason it’s called “acting,” you know? But it also seems like Shia may have broken it off with Karolyn before filming started, which means that he at least deserves a few points off his douche score. In any case, I expect that this new relationship with Mia is only based upon sex, and hopefully Karolyn will suddenly find herself in a new relationship that culminates in utter happiness and the proof of Shia as a Good Luck Chuck. Soon enough, Mia will be done with Shia too, and he’ll get in more bar fights and then give more passive-aggressive interviews about how “method” he is. Good times.

Here are some photos of Shia Labeouf out for a walk (for whatever reason) on Pacific Coast Highway in September. Isn’t that a good way to get run over by a non-braking Lindsay Lohan? Well, Shia is doing his best to become a hot mess on his very own because he just got into a random bar fight in London. This isn’t the first time he’s flown into someone else’s fists (and vice versa), but it’s been nearly two years since he’s let his temper get the best of him. Shia is obviously — what with all of the gross, literal sex he’s having while filming Lars von Trier’s N-mphomaniac — under so much pressure that he couldn’t help himself when some dude pulled the hat (the one in these pictures) off his head. I mean, it’s a hat. Who does Shia think he is, Raylan Givens? I wonder if Bob Redford will pat him on the back after this silly fight:
Hollywood star Shia Labeouf got into a scrap — while drinking in a student pub in a scruffy South London suburb.
Regulars at the Hobgoblin in New Cross were stunned when the Transformers actor walked in with Mia Goth, his co-star in new film N-mphomaniac.
Shia, 26, spent several hours drinking and happily posing for photos with fans. But the mood turned sour when a student prankster pinched the star’s baseball cap – a souvenir from Laos in Asia – and refused to give it back.
A scuffle broke out and drinkers had to separate the pair before Shia left in a taxi. Police were not called.
One witness said: “No one could believe that a well-known Hollywood star had rocked up at a bar in dingy SE14. Everyone was getting their photos taken with him.
“The scrap all started when this guy took his hat. I think he was just joking, but Shia didn’t like it.
“The guy just took it off him and wouldn’t give it back. He tried to get it back and they ended up tussling. It was handbags really. But it shows that even Hollywood stars can?t avoid grief down this way.”
Landlord Mark Harris confirmed Shia was in the pub with model and actress Mia, 19. Mark said: “Her mum lives just down the road. She came down to see her mum and he tagged along. He did get a bit frustrated and there was a bit of a scuffle.”

Radar Online adds to the story with a faux-poor Shia stance about how Shia thinks everyone starts crap with him just because he’s famous. According to one of Shia’s (nameless) pals (are there any other who grant “exclusives”?), Shia thinks that this dude who stole his baseball cap was just trying to egg him on, and “it’s not [Shia's] fault” that “he lost his temper,” right? Further, “Shia believes he is picked on by people simply because of his fame. He feels he gets victimized for who he is and says that people often try to start a fight with him just for fun. He only wants to have a little downtime after a hard day of filming and wants to be treated with a little bit of respect.” Yeah, okay. Shia’s had a hard day of work with all of that actual sex going on at the set. You’d think instead of placing himself in a situation where he’s very likely to punch someone for a variety of reasons that, you know, he’d just roll over and go to sleep after the “O-face.”

These are photos from a few months ago of the premiere of The Company You Keep at the Venice film festival. They’re not really noteworthy except to say that Shia looks gross (as he always does these days) and that he’s obviously thrilled to be hanging on the arm of Robert “Bob” Redford, who apparently feels the same way and will let Shia get away with bar fighting and then welcome him on set with open arms the next day. If I were Shia, I’d make sure I didn’t screw up this professional relationship with “Bob” because it turns out that Steven Spielberg has finally had enough of Shia’s crap.
It turns out that Spielberg has been quietly resenting how Shia publicly rambled on about Spielberg “dropping the ball” in regards to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Of course, Shia had already decided by that time that he was going to go on to rule the world of indie film, so (during the promotion for Lawless) he progressed into ranting about how studios “stick a finger up your ass,” and he claimed to be totally done with blockbusters. Then Shia took a shot at Transformers by saying, “I would just like to make movies about people now,” and “If I could give the money back and get all the credibility in the world that I?m seeking, I would do it tomorrow.” Well of course Shia didn’t mean a damn word of what he was spewing because he’s apparently on board for the fourth Transformers movie, and he’s demanded an $18 million salary as if the franchise should be grateful to have him. In an interesting twist and according to Star, Spielberg has apparently told Shia to stuff it. No raise for him, and if he doesn’t like it, get lost:
Just kidding! Shia Labeouf is backtracking on his vow to stop making blockbusters. Despite his repeatedly bac-mouthing the Transformers franchise, he is on board for the next flick, Star has learned. Not only that, he wants a $3 million raise from the $15 million paycheck he received for Transformers: Dark of the Moon. But his lips may have cost him!
“It wasn’t lost on producer Steven Spielberg how well The Amazing Spider-Man didwithout Tobey Maguire,” reveals the source. “Besides, special effects are th real star of Transformers. And Steven isn’t about to divert CGI funds to please Shia — he’ll find another actor.
But the 26–year-old is dissing his studio bosses and demanding more money. “Shia complains about the lack of a script but talks like being in the movie is a foregone conclusion.” With all this flip-flopping, maybe he should run for public office!
[From Star, print edition, November 12, 2012]
Shia is so deluded if he thinks he’s indispensible to Hollywood. While it’s true that he should have been thrown out on his ear a few years ago, he ended up outlasting the likes of Megan Fox (who also said some really stupid things, but nothing worse than Shia) because he’s “one of the guys.” Eventually, he’ll get his due, but first, he’ll make us watch him have actual sex first. Gross.

Shia LeBeouf is gross. I mean that in a lot of ways. Not only has he transformed (har har) his physical appearance into that of the Hipster Unabomber, but he’s also developed quite a habit of getting hissy-fit drunk in public and also talking about how the studio system stuck a finger up his a**. Then he decided that we all wanted to see him get (fully) naked, so he took it all off for a music video. Gross.
Anyway, now Shia is grossing me out again by talking about how the sex in his upcoming movie, N-mphomaniac, will be actual sex as opposed to “acted out” sex. The fantastic voyage in reference is , of course, a movie directed by Lars Von Trier, who famously spent his 2011 trip to Cannes getting himself banned from the festival for all of eternity because he went on a socially-awkward rant that culminated in him expressing sympathies for Hitler and jokingly declaring himself a Nazi. It was a total mess, but at least that means that Shia’s bare booty (and presumably, his wang) won’t be screening for competition (or otherwise) at Cannes. As for Von Trier, I’m sure he feels that having his actors actually do it with each other is much more “artsy” than merely pretending that they’re doing it, right? Hell, I’m surprised James Franco hasn’t signed onto this movie for the art of it. Here are the details on Shia’s impending moon:
The unfiltered actor admits he’s “terrified” to film the Danish director’s erotic drama. Shia Labeouf says the sex scenes in Lars von Trier’s N-mphomaniac will be the real deal.
As THR exclusively reported, the 26-year-old actor signed on to star in the controversial Danish director’s latest project, an erotic two-part drama that begins production next month and will be released in two cuts, one more sexuality explicit than the other.
“(The movie] is what you think it is,” LaBeouf tells MTV News. “It is Lars von Trier, making a movie about what he’s making. For instance, there’s a disclaimer at the top of the script that basically says we’re doing it for real. Everything that is illegal, we’ll shoot in blurred images. Other than that, everything is happening.”
Von Trier’s first film since 2011?s Melancholia, an apocalyptic drama co-starring Kirsten Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg, N-mphomaniac, will chronicle the sexual adventures of a woman (Gainsbourg) from her youth through age 50. Stellan Skarsgard plays her husband, and Nicole Kidman has suggested she might have a small role.
As to why LaBeouf took the N-mphomaniac job: “Because (von Trier’s) dangerous. He scares me. And I’m only going to work now when I’m terrified.”
[From Hollywood Reporter]
Honestly, Charlotte Gainsbourg must be a masochist in the true sense since she keeps signing onto these Von Trier films. If I recall correctly, Antichrist featured actual penetration in its opening scene, but these were obviously (I hope) “stunt” actors and not Charlotte and Willem Dafoe really doing the deed. Now Von Trier is pushing his little obligatory envelope even further, and I’m wondering …. who will Shia actually be, um, bedding in this movie? So far, Shia, Charlotte, Willem Dafoe, Stellan Skarsgard, and Nicole Kidman are the only confirmed actors in roles, and I don’t see Nicole agreeing to do the dirty with Shia. As for Charlotte, yeah, I can see her going there. For the art, of course.
Despite Von Trier’s madness, however, I have to admit to actually liking Melancholia much more than his other movies. But how do I feel about watching a movie featuring Shia’s authentic O-face (and much more)? I’ll pass on this one.

Stepping out for some media duties, Shia Labeouf headed over to ABC Studios in New York City earlier today (August 1) to promote his new film ?Lawless.?
The ?Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen? hunk, who arrived at JFK International Airport last night, looked a bit tired as he passed fans and paparazzi sporting a grey top and rust-colored trousers en route to "Good Morning America."
In a recent interview, Shia confessed that his preparation for his role in his new John Hillcoat flick was nothing short of insane.
"There's physical preparation. We were all in the gym all of the time. I was in the gym more here than I had ever been in my entire life. I know that [costar] Jason (Clarke) was in the gym every day. Tom (Hardy) was in the gym every day. I know the walk that [Dane DeHaan] had to do was physically arduous and continues to be. You go as hard as you can. It's a very physical thing."

Shia Labeouf, whose appeal has always eluded me, was looking especially scruffy while while he was out and about pumping gas and popping by the post office in Sherman Oaks over the weekend. Of course, I was quick to label this Shia’s Unibomber look, which isn’t entirely off base because he’s currently starring in The Company You Keep as Ben Shepard, a former Weather Underground activist on the run from a journalist played by Robert Redford, who is also directing the movie. If you’ve heard anything at all about the Weather Underground, you’ll know that it was a radical group (mostly active in the 1970s) which aimed to violently overthrow the US government and targeted a number of government buildings in various bombing plots. So the Unibomber beard is part of Shia’s look for the movie, but he’s accessorized it here in his own hipster way by slicking his hair back and tying it off with a green rubber band. I’m not loving it.
Meanwhile, Shia has also been named #16 on GQ’s Stylish men Under 30 list, which says, “Long gone are his days of floppy pants and oversized T-shirts from the set of Even Stevens. Even making beer-runs, he’s dressed with a cooler confidence in his leading-man years.” I’m not putting much stock in this list since Kellan Lutz grabbed the #14 spot, and two Jonas brothers scored top 5 positions. At least they had the decency to leave Ryan Gosling off this list, but he probably would’ve made it too if he weren’t too darn old at age 31. Relatively speaking, of course.
