Shia LaBeouf

Shia LaBeouf is an American actor who rose to fame as a child star on the Disney Channel series *Even Stevens* and later in blockbuster films like *Transformers* and *Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull*.

He became known as much for erratic public behavior and performance art as for acting—his "Just Do It" motivational video and paper-bag appearances at film premieres made him an internet meme.

His career has alternated between critical acclaim in independent films and tabloid notoriety.
