This is such a freaking weird story about Shia LaBeouf, who is freaking weird enough on his own, so I guess it makes sense. Shia is currently in London to shoot WWII movie Fury with Brad Pitt. I guess Brad had the night off from bro-bonding with Shia, and Shia got into some mischief on his own.
He certainly found trouble. Shia is no stranger to barfights or punching things. This time, Shia made sure someone kicked his ass instead of vice versa. I don’t know if he was drunk or what, but he was hanging outside a bar and saw a woman puking. He decided to film this woman while she threw up. The woman asked Shia to stop, and he refused. Then a “good” samaritan (I probably shouldn’t use that term when referring to violence) stepped in and punched Shia a few times to make him stop filming. Seriously?
Actor Shia LaBeouf was reportedly attacked during a night out in London after he filmed a drunken reveller on his phone.
The Transformers star was allegedly enjoying a night out in Leicester Square when he started to video two women, one of whom was being sick. After he refused to stop filming at the girl’s request, a passer-by intervened and punched the actor twice.
The pair was split up by bouncers from a nearby club, giving LaBeouf and his pal the chance to escape.
One of the women LaBeouf filmed tells Britain’s The Sun, “I only realised it was Shia after he’d been beaten up. If I’d known, I’d have let him film me as much as he liked. I have a massive crush on him.”
The publication claims the police were not called to the scene.
It’s the second time LaBeouf has allegedly been involved in an altercation in the U.K. capital – he was caught up in a scuffle in a bar last year after a patron tried to grab his baseball cap.

Shia does some strange things without realizing that he offends people, but this takes the cake. The woman’s reaction is very strange too. She has a crush on Shia, so she wouldn’t have minded him filming her if she would have realized who he was. Really? If I was puking in the street and Tim Olyphant rolled up with an iPhone, I’d tell him to go f— himself. Sorry Mr. Swagger, but I puke without witness if at all possible.
Here’s a couple of the new N-mphomaniac character posters featuring Shia LaBeouf and his real-life girlfriend, Mia Goth. Sadly, this image of Shia scratching his armpit isn’t as disturbing as how the other actors look in their posters. If you think you can stomach it, the rest of the posters are available here.

This guy though, was he always such a douche? Props to that guy who punched him, he definitely deserved that. Such a smug asshole.
I’m not in support of violence, but I make an exception for this. Nobody deserves to be filmed while throwing up. That’s just tasteless.
The posters: dear lord Jesus my eyes. Even though Uma Thurman looks like a freaking goddess making love in the clouds.
mte, I don’t know what kind of enjoyment he could possibly derive from seeing someone throw up, such an all-round weirdo.
And lol, Mia looks like she’s in the middle of an earth-shattering number two as supposed to an orgasm lol, I can’t take these posters seriously at all.
I’m always a fan of using words to sort out problems, like civilized people; and yet, I have to agree with you 100%. If you are going to flat-out refuse to not film someone in a vulnerable situation, you deserve to have your ass kicked. Depending on the context, that could easily cross the line into sexual harassment.
Perhaps, it was even good for Shia…a reminder that his Hollywood image is just that: an image. He seems to have bought into the public image his publists have been spinning a tad too much, and this could help him get back to reality. He’s no tough soldier boy, he’s no testostroney sex-symbol…just an obnoxious punk who will go down the second someone punches him. Just like the vast majority of swaggering twenty somethings.
What a f**** jerk. They ask him to stop and he continues to film her, yet always whines about his privacy and being papped? He has obviously no sense for reality. Wonder in what world he lives.
Dani2, Thanks for making me LMAO – and my day – wish I’d said that about the number two – I was going to suggests Bran…
Wondering why I thought I had to look at the rest of the posters. There goes breakfast.
Tell me about it.. “The Waiter” looked possessed.
Seriously, looks pretty fake to me, especially Mia. And what’s wrong with Shia, his poster is a joke. I can’t stop laughing. He’s too cool for an orgasm, haha!
Everyone on the posters just looks constipated to me…
I was just thinking that Mia Gorh gas the worst sex face ever, but then I would probably look equally pained if I had to shag Shia LaBeouf.
The ‘O’ mouth is too much for me, she looks like a freakin blow-up doll!
Mia’s poster looks like an elf having an orgasm.
@ nico,
Great. I’m doing Elf on the Shelf this year for my kids. Now that’s ALL I’m going to be able to think of.
He got what he deserved. What an asshole.
Shia probably deserved it. It’s a douchey thing to do.
Does he have fleas? Or mange?
I’ll bet he has mange.
Someone should nominate the ‘good samaritan’ for CNN Heroes. For real. Shia deserves this & more. What a moron
He no longer has any ground to stand on to complain about paparazzi or invasion of privacy.
What in the entire fu*k are those posters? They look like posters for people who decided to ignore the itching and burning until it was too late.
Shia is a little douche and if he were a woman he wouldn’t be getting away with bad mouthing his past films.
Shia’s just lucky he’s a smug douche with talent. THAT’S the only reason he’s still around. I don’t think we can really compare what he did (the whole “Steven dropped the ball” comments) to Megan Fox’s “Bay is like Hitler, et al”.
For one, up to that point, Shia was just a douche, but he was a professional douche (although Orphans changed that). From what I get, was that Megan was getting a little bit big in her britches for someone who’s just the T&A of a stupid robot movie–especially with the whole she’s the next “Angelina”–the Barbella “feud”, (which I’m sure Megan’s people put that out in the first place), which when I was younger, I was actually dumb enough to believe that Angelina was threatened by Megan-snort.
So what I got out of it was Megan was very arrogant (especially for her body of work), very stuckup towards the crew members and cast (that whole not doing the cast bonding crap–going to the pyramids), AND on top of that she was always late on set, and not ready to work (didn’t know her lines or whatever–from that open letter the crew did).
So when Steven had her fired, I think it was just the straw that broke the camel’s back–she’s going to act entitled and so on, AND talk trash about her boss? Uh, no. If this was the real world, and I publically compared by boss to Hitler (whether this was on Facebook or during a company party), I don’t think I’d be working there for very long–especially if I was smallfry.
And yes, women do have it much harder. But the only two people I can think of whose careers have been greatly affected by their remarks have been Megan and Katherine Heigl. And both have that reputation of being difficult to work with.
I need to go bleach my eyes after seeing the Willem Defoe pic. OMG that’s so awful!
About Nymphomaniac: go see La vie d’Adele… and maybe it will clarify “real” sex thing. Also, it’s one of the best films I’ve seen in ages. Adele Exarchopoulos is one of the biggest talents around and I wish she was covered a bit if possible. She deserves it. Much more than Lea Seydoux…
With all due respect I thought that movie was just les porn. Each to his own, but it was seriously just not my cup of tea…and it was blooming 3 hours long. But if you enjoyed it good for you…I have respect for the work that went into it but I still think it was just too much nakedness.
I understand your point of view. Though Kechiche is planning to cut it for the wider audience. I thought that the story of finding yourself and how relationships and selfishness in them work was really interesting. But it made me think about all this commotion regarding Von Triers film that’s not even out when there already is one worth discussing.
The author of the book critized the sex scenes as exploitative.
Yes, she did… but they did drift away in this adaptation; I think the comic ended up being the source of inspiration and to me it was a pretty amazing film, but yeah, as Harrison Ford said to Cumberbatch “it takes all sorts”…
This guy is fugly both inside and out. It amazes me he finds employment, because IMO, he is a horrible sctor.
+1 I don’t get hollywood’s infatuation with this guy at all.
Really? You went there? I’m not a fan of any of these idiots but that’s a crap thing to say or think.
Uh, we can argue the quality of their films, but I’m pretty sure that Sandler and Apatow keep making movies because their movies keep making money.
The equation is much more straightforward that your BS.
Use to be Tea & Sympathy, now we get Whine & Racism.
No, I do not let any of that BS slide. Check yourself.
That’s a trolling comment if I ever saw one.
I love when troublemakers end up getting their asses beat. Yet he still hasn’t learned. Something really bad is going to happen to him. When did all go wrong? So much fury for a guy who has virtually no problems.
I had hyperemesis gravidarum while teaching high school. Once I had to run into the hallway with the trash can to throw up. When I looked up, an 18 yr old was filming me on his IPhone bending over, throwing up & crying. Did I mention I was in a dress? I wish someone would have punched that kid. Way to be a jerk Shia.
Oh my goodness I am so sorry. Did the phone at least get confiscated?
Those posters are hilarious.
I don’t care what none of y’all say, I still love him.
Oh, those posters gave me a good laugh! I don’t know if that’s what they were going for or not. Not sexy to me! If the whole movie is full of images like that I’ll gladly skip it.
Maybe instead of filming her being sick he could have asked if she needed help.
Too bad no one was around to film Shia’s ass getting stomped.
What an arrogant prick. And ‘he was drunk’ is not an excuse…I think anyone who’s been around drunk people knows that booze doesn’t switch personalities.
If the shoe was on the other foot and some ‘nobody’ filmed him puking, he’d get one of his security details to beat the person up, but when he does it…it’s different?
He deserves to have his butt kicked.
As for Lars von Triers promotional posters. He is such a huge copycat. Those posters are quite similar to an adult website that is all about onanism.
Trier…for tryhard.
Uma Thurman looks freakin glorious while having a faux orgasm. Of course she would. Of course of course.
What a goddess….
How in the hell does he keep getting jobs? He’s a terrible actor. He’s boring, predictable and bad…just bad. I don’t care about the off screen stuff because I find him repugnant on screen. The ONLY movie I’ve seen him and liked him in was Constantine. He was actually kind of adorable but since then…not a damn thing.
The original article I read on the dailymail said he’d been kicked in the groin by the stranger
Someone should have video taped Shia getting his ass kicked.
He’s crazy. End of discussion.
I don’t feel much for Shia at all. here to see the few pics of Brad. I don’t think Brad is doing any bro-bonding with Shia or anyone. From tweets he is spending his off work time with his children.
I wonder do we know if that story is true. I mean celeb or anyone needs to be careful in bars.. You could get seriously hurt or killed. It happens.
Checked out the porno movie posters. I’m sometimes amazed at what celebs will do in the name of their “art” or maybe it’s just straight up for the cash. They all look stupid. Especially itchy pits.
He reminds me of the kinds of actors William Goldman talks about in his books. The kinds of actors who just wander about on set and when they see things they like, just pick them up and put them in their pocket. Like, people who’ve had so much smoke blown up their ass they’ve gone crazy.
