JUST DO IT! Everything's Canceled podcast is FINALLY back! Join your hosts Herman and Lorena as we discuss the life and times of canceled Hollywood superstar Shia LaBeouf ...and Herman attempts to pronounce "LaBeouf". Starting his career as a child star playing numerous television roles, Shia found notoriety as the mischievous younger brother Louis Stevens on the Disney Channel's Even Stevens (2000-2003) and appearing in the early 2000's nostalgic classics "Tru Confessions" (2002) and "Holes" (2003).  LaBeouf's film career took off as he played major roles in popular films including "Disturbia" (2007), "Surf's Up (2007), a bunch of "Transformers" movies, "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" (2008) and others. As Shia evolved from child star to film star, his career also evolved to include numerous artistic side-projects: appearing in and directing music videos, creating graphic novels, and collaborating with artists Luke Turner and Nastja Säde Rönkkö on numerous projects including #IAMSORRY (2014) for which LaBeouf appeared on the red carpet on the Berlin Film Festival wearing a brown paper bag over his head on which had been written "I AM NOT FAMOUS ANYMORE", #INTRODUCTIONS (2015) which featured LaBeouf performing monologues submitted by art students including one in the style of a motivational speech that eventually led to the viral fame of a clip of Shia shouting encouraging the listener to "MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE!" "JUST DO IT!", and #HEWILLNOTDIVIDEUS (2017-2021) a livestream created in response to the election of President Donald Trump for which participants were invited repeat the phrase "He will not divide us" live on the internet that became the target of repeated internet trolling. We take a deep dive into Shia's complicated romantic history as LaBeouf also evolves into a Hollywood heart-throb and has been romantically linked to many of his co-stars including Megan Fox, stylist Karolyn Pho, future wife and baby mama Mia Goth, and Margaret Qualley. In late 2020 British musician FKA Twigs filed a lawsuit against Shia alleging abuse during their relationship. In interviews she described the abuse as "love-bombing" and "gaslighting". She also described alleged threatening behavior including threatening her with reckless driving and physical abuse that caused extensive bruising. The lawsuit has been delayed several times and is currently set to go to trial in late 2024. LaBeouf and Mia Goth reunited in 2020 and had a daughter in 2022. In subsequent interviews Shia has claimed sobriety and issued apologies for "hurting those closest to him", "taking accountability", "cheating on every partner", praising his accuser as "a saint for creating the avenue" for him to "experience ego death". We discuss the details of Shia's apology and weigh in on whether he has been or can be redeemed and what that means for celebrities and their victims.  Thank you to all of our ExC fans for sticking with us and welcome to all of our new listeners!
