12 Times That Shia LaBeouf Made An Absolute Ass Of Himself

8. Brags About Hooking Up With Megan Fox (June 2011)

To be fair to Shia, a lot of people would like to brag about the fact they've had sex with Megan Fox, and most people probably wouldn't be able to keep it to themselves if they'd managed to. Shia began running his mouth about the fling while doing the press rounds for Transformers: Dark of the Moon, declaring, "Look, you're on the set for six months, with someone who's rooting to be attracted to you, and you're rooting to be attracted to them. I never understood the separation of work and life in that situation. But the time I spent with Megan was our own thing, and I think you can see the chemistry onscreen." This earned Shia a lot of respect from Fox's fans, though at the same time, it caused a ripple effect that made Fox's life a pain, as she was at the time on a break from her now-husband Brian Austin Green, and it temporarily threw that relationship into greater disarray. Did Shia do anything flat-out wrong? Not as such, and most people would like to brag about that, but there's a little thing called "class" that he seems to have forgotten. Why not wait a while and tell all when his career needs the boost? Jean-Claude Van Damme famously did this in 2012, in reference to a fling he had with Kylie Minogue on the set of Street Fighter back in 1994.
