Shia LaBeouf Cast in Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis
There’s already a lot of big names attached to Megalopolis, the upcoming epic feature from Francis Ford Coppola. Now, it’s been confirmed that the embattled Shia LaBeouf has joined the film’s cast. LaBeouf has remained in hot water for the better part of the past two years now. Back in February 2021, he announced he’d be taking a hiatus from acting following accusations of abuse and assault by a number of women — including his ex-girlfriend FKA twigs, who filed a lawsuit against the actor in 2020 citing “relentless abuse.” He made headlines again last week after Variety published an interview with Olivia Wilde, who suggested that LaBeouf was fired from the role that eventually went to Harry Styles in her upcoming movie Don’t Worry Darling. LaBeouf maintains that he...
FKA twigs: Shia LaBeouf Shot Stray Dogs, Knowingly Transmitted an STD
In a new interview with Elle, FKA twigs spoke openly and honestly about her abusive relationship with Shia LaBeouf. Many of the details included in the interview were first alleged by singer in her civil lawsuit against LaBeouf. However, in the interview she goes into far greater detail about the abusive behavior she endured. “I think it’s luck,” FKA twigs told Elle when asked how she survived LaBeouf’s abuse. “I honestly wish I could say that I found some strength and I saw this light. I wish I could say, ‘[It is] a testament to my strong character,’ or ‘It’s the way my mother raised me.’ It’s none of that. It’s pure luck that I’m not in that situation anymore.” After meeting on the set of the 2017 film Honey Boy, FKA twigs and LaBeouf began dating and eventually moved in together. twigs ...
FKA Twigs Details Alleged Abuse by Shia LaBeouf: ‘I’ve Woken Up to Him Strangling Me’
In an expansive Elle cover story, FKA twigs elaborated further about her experience with former partner and Honey Boy co-star Shia LaBeouf, who she sued for sexual battery, assault and abuse in December 2020. In a Zoom interview from her London home, the singer said that “It’s a miracle I came out alive.” Continuing, Twigs described the events of Valentine’s Day 2019 when she said that she woke up to LaBeouf with his hands around her neck, “beginning to strangle her” in a hotel. The next day, she said that he drove erratically, speeding and demanding she “profess her love for him.” The singer says that escaping the relationship was down to “luck,” telling the magazine, “I honestly wish I could say that I found some strength and I saw this light. I wish I could say, ‘[It is] ...
Sia on Shia LaBeouf Relationship: ‘I Feel Like I’m Always Gonna Love Him Because He’s Such a Sick Puppy’
Two months after revealing Shia LaBeouf “conned” her “into an adulterous relationship claiming to be single,” Sia revealed more details about her romance with the actor during an interview with The Sunday Times, saying that she and FKA Twigs both thought they were “singly dating him” when “he was still married.” “It turns out he was using the same lines on me and Twigsy, and eventually we found out because we ended up talking to one another,” Sia explained. “Both of us thought we were singly dating him. But that wasn’t the case. And he was still married.” The singer-songwriter went on to say that LaBeouf “wanted to marry me and live a sober life” together, and despite the toxicity she’ll always have a place in her heart for him. “I feel like I’m always gonna love him because he’s...
Vanessa Kirby Stands Tall In Netflix’s Shrugworthy Pieces of a Woman: Review
This review was originally part of our coverage of the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival . The Pitch: Pregnant couple Sean (Shia LaBeouf) and Martha (Vanessa Kirby) go through a dangerous labor with a new midwife, Eva (Molly Parker), only for the worst possible outcome to occur. In the months that follow, they each process their grief and anger in different ways. Meanwhile, Martha’s mother, Elizabeth (Ellen Burstyn), pushes for legal justice that may or may not offer the closure that the family needs. Labour Pains: When people discuss Kornél Mundruczó’s Pieces of a Woman, the discussion will inevitably be broken into two parts.

Shia LaBeouf to Enter Rehab for Addiction and Psychological Issues
Shia LaBeouf is planning to enter an “intensive, long-term inpatient” facility to address addiction and psychological issues. Shawn Holley, a lawyer for the 34-year-old LaBeouf, told Variety that the actor “needs help and he knows that.” “We are actively seeking the kind of meaningful, intensive, long-term inpatient treatment that he desperately needs,” added Holley. Earlier this month, FKA twigs filed a lawsuit against her former boyfriend LaBeouf over allegations of “relentless abuse,” including sexual battery, assault, and infliction of emotional distress. In a corresponding interview with the New York Times, the singer detailed several traumatic incidents in which LaBeouf displayed aggressive and abusive behavior against her.

Sia: Shia LaBeouf is a “Pathological Liar” Who “Conned Me Into an Adulterous Relationship”
Sia says she too was “hurt emotionally” by Shia LaBeouf, who she describes as “a pathological liar, who conned me into an adulterous relationship claiming to be single.” “I believe he’s very sick and have compassion for him AND his victims,” the Australian singer added in a tweet posted on Saturday evening. “Just know, if you love yourself- stay safe, stay away.” LaBeouf starred in Sia’s 2015 music video for “Elastic Heart”. However, the video ultimately proved constrovisal and drew claims of pedophilia as it featured LaBeouf dancing alongside Maddie Ziegler, then 13, in beige costumes. “All I can say is Maddie and Shia are two of the only actors I felt could play, these two warring ‘Sia’ self states,” Sia wrote at the time. “I apologize to those who feel triggered by ‘Elastic Heart’. My i...
Sia Says ‘Pathological Liar’ Shia LaBeouf ‘Conned’ Her ‘Into an Adulterous Relationship’

However, the singer is choosing to empathize rather than villainize. “I believe he’s very sick and have compassion for him AND his victims,” she continued. “Just know, if you love yourself- stay safe, stay away.” In a subsequent tweet, Sia gave her love to FKA Twigs for coming forward. “This is very courageous and I’m very proud of you,” she wrote.

Shia LaBeouf and Margaret Qualley Bare It All in New Music Video: Watch
Shia LaBeouf and Margaret Qualley bare all in a new music video from Margaret’s sister, Rainey Qualley, a.k.a. Rainsford. The video for “Love Me Like You Hate Me” stars LaBeouf and Qualley as a couple and depicts different stages of their relationship using a split-screen format. At various points throughout, the actors appear fully nude and participate in an artful sex scene. “The 10-minute split-screen film portrays the tenderness and toxicity of a relationship, presented from the dual, and at times conflicting, perspectives of a couple,” a press release notes. “With a gently disorientating structure, the piece builds towards an open-ended resolution that loops back on itself, returning us to where we began.” The video was produced by Shia’s longtime collaborator, British ...
