Shia wore a paper bag, which read "I am not famous anymore", at the premiere of his film Nymphomaniac in Berlin recently
Highlights
- Actor Alec Baldwin wrote that he "felt sorry" for his former Broadway co-star Shia LaBeouf when he heard that the troubled actor walked a red carpet with a paper bag over his head.
- Shia, 27, wore a paper bag, which read "I am not famous anymore", at the premiere of his film Nymphomaniac during the Berlin International Film Festival.
- Alec Baldwin fell out with Shia LaBeouf while they were working on the Broadway play Orphans in 2013 and the latter was subsequently fired from the show.
- The 55-year-old still admits that he feels bad about Shia's current troubles, reports contactmusic.com.
- In an article published in New York Magazine, Baldwin writes: "Shia LaBeouf went to a film screening recently where he wore a bag over his head and the bag says 'I Am Not Famous Anymore'. And there was truly a part of me that felt sorry for him, oddly enough."
- "I'd heard from other people that he was potentially very difficult to work with, but I always ignore that because people say the same thing about me. LaBeouf seems to carry with him, to put it mildly, a jail house mentality wherever he goes...I think he was shocked (when he was fired). He had that card, that card you get when you make films that make a lot of money that gives you a certain kind of entitlement. I think he was surprised that it didn't work in the theatre," he added.
