National Post: Shia LaBeouf handcuffed, removed from Broadway show by police after shouting obscenities, smoking in theatre. http://google.com/newsstand/s/CBIwpKKenh8
This might be a case of an actor who thinks he’s an artist. If this is a performance, then someone needs to tell Shia LeBeouf that he’s an actor–the speaker of words created for him, not by him–and not an artist. He’s the canvas, not the artist who creates the portrait. He should just be happy with the disproportionate amount of compensation he receives for mediocre talent and leave the art/social commentary to those who actually have something to say.
And if this is a case of drunken buffoonery, then I fear he really is bankrupt in the imagination department.

Some people just don’t cope with fame well and has no idea what it entails!

It is an affliction that garners little sympathy. Hasn’t he been famous for a really long time?

He’s just way too immature for fame. I think fame should be dished out on merit, and the Kardashians definitely don’t qualify! 😀

That’s true. At least Shia has done something other than having big boobs and a roundish ass.

Great post! I particularly enjoyed the canvas not the artist analogy!!!

Oh thank you. I can’t remember the name of the director but he refers to actors as “talking meat.” A line which I love but it is a little brutal.

Honestly, I don’t mind him as an actor. He’s a total dick, but I look forward to seeing what he has next in store for his career.

Yes but he’s not terribly unique. A hundred guys could do what he does. I think actors get confused because they say the words that bring the work to life but the hard part is writing the words. That is where the the very difficult part of the creative process lies. Actors in the Hollywood machine are grossly over paid, they should just be grateful and not act like tortured souls.
