In a race to become the next Mel Gibson, Shia LaBeouf has recently been stirring up trouble at Mad Bull’s Tavern in Sherman Oaks, CA, culminating in an incident this weekend that reportedly involved homophobic slurs, thrown punches, and handcuffs.
Why so uneven, Steven?
In fairness, Shia wasn’t the one who (allegedly) spewed the ugly words, but he’s been kicking up a lot of dust on the bar scene lately, having been involved in another scuffle a few weeks ago involving nearly 15 people. Shia’s posse, of course, claims his innocence in each altercation, but if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s probably a guy who drinks a little too much and gets belligerent whenever someone makes a comment not to his liking and then proceeds to ruin the evening for everyone.
Just wants to enjoy a damn Jagerbomb in peace already.
So, what’s going on, Shia? You’ve got a decent amount of cash, you’ve made out with Megan Fox and Carey Mulligan, your name has an impressive amount of vowels — why are you lashing out so? Of course, this isn’t the first time Shia’s been in hot water; he had a drunk driving arrest a few years ago, as well as a 2007 arrest for…refusing to leave a Chicago Walgreen’s at two in the morning.
I don’t care if you were in desperate need of Twizzlers and Neosporin, that is just poor form.
In my highly unprofessional opinion, Shia’s behavior reeks of insecurity. Throwing punches at some jerk shooting his mouth off in a bar and refusing to leave a goddamn DRUGSTORE to the point of getting arrested are the actions of a man with a large sense of entitlement…and an intense fear that the world doesn’t value him proportionately. Shia’s been in the business a long time (meaning that he’s had since childhood to develop a monstrous ego which renders him unable to function in the real world), and it probably burns his ass whenever his agent comes to him all “Hey! I got you another Transformers sequel!” instead of “Hey! I got you a movie with more than a snowball’s chance of garnering you some damn respect in the industry!”
Or maybe he’s just an irresponsible brat who needs to get his shit together. Either way, buck up, little soldier. I see you’re in a Depression-era bootlegging film with Tom Hardy slated to be released in 2012, and that sounds promising. Perhaps you can lay off the jerky antics long enough to ride Tom Hardy’s coattails onto a higher echelon of fame? But how to get into Tom Hardy’s good graces…
Oh, dear.
