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.”

Ugh… Shia LaDouche… All he does is bitch.
I don’t like him, but he didn’t do anything wrong this time. If somebody took something mine and refuse it to give it back I’d be pissed too and would try to get it back.
I’m with you. And I think I believe that people try to start fights with him, including the hat stealer, given his trainwreck-y history. It’s the perfect way for a famewh&^e to get their 15 minutes.
ITA. I don’t like him at all, but if someone did that to me, I’d go after them. However, getting into a bar fight instead of handling it like a grown-up is ridiculous.
I read in a few places that the whole “actual sex” wasn’t really going to happen.
Also, I don’t agree with his whole “I’m a victim” crap, but seriously, why is it so awful if he got pissed when some d*ck stole his hat and refused to give it back? It doesn’t sound like he brawled (more of a kerfluffle) and it doesn’t sound like his reaction was unprovoked.
+1
I don’t blame him for being pissed. I would be too.
right, what did the guy expect to happen? You don’t take things from people you’ve never met as a joke. That’s nuts.
yikes. robert redford looks like mic jaggers dad in that last pic. hes such an awesome guy, robert- step away form the lebouf.
I would be pissed, also.
Woah. That last picture is all kinds of weird.
Why has no one mentioned those horrible shorts!!! whatever, he’s the Lindsay of male Hollywood
“It was handbags, really.”
I need a Brit to translate, that.
It means, a bit of hair pulling and slapping, not a proper fight
Hair pulling, lol. Sounds like my sister and me. When we were 5.
I wish so many of these actors would stop trying to be artistic and just make romantic comedies for me to enjoy when my husband is away for work. Rob Pattinson for one, Shia, who could have been a fun actor but instead just got weird, and the list goes on.
What exactly is this guys appeal? Ugh.
I don’t know – I think he looks just like his ugly old mom but with a beard. I guess that’s why he finds her so hot.
Why does he still have a career? He’s unappealing and an awful actor. Why are they still trying to make him happen?
God I hate myself so much for admitting this but a teeny tiny part of me always had a crush on him. Like a, I’ll do you once and never think of it again crush. Ugh.
