Shia LaBeouf Ellen Interview Tackles The Actor’s #IAMSORRY Performance Exhibit; ‘Fury’ Actor Shares, ‘I Was Sitting In There Broken’

Shia LaBeouf Ellen interview on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" showed the former "Transformers" star opening up to the famed talk show host about his bad boy streak. He also talked about the steps that he has taken in order to get his life and his career in the showbiz industry back on track.

"You've had quite an interesting life in the last year or so," the talk show host said in a nonchalant manner. "I really don't pay attention to stuff, but uh, what happened?"

Shia LaBeouf Ellen just cannot get away from his past, but now, it looks like he is ready to face the music.

The star of "Fury" did not sugarcoat his troubles at all. "Man, I went through, like, an existential crisis, which turned into, kind of, like, explorations. I had some hiccups, some judgment errors."

DeGeneres recalled that LaBeouf once "wore a paper bag" over his head on the red carpet during the February Nymphomaniac premiere. "So, you wore that," the host said.

"And then, to apologize, you did a performance piece, which that sort of was, but you did a performance piece where people could come and see you and say whatever they wanted to you."

The 28-year-old actor then said about his #IAMSORRY performance exhibit, "Yeah. We had a table with all these implements. You know, there was, like, an 'Indiana Jones' whip and some pliers and it was, sort of, no rules."

"There was a lot of negativity online. So, I thought, 'All right. Well, let's see what all this negativity is all about. Let's invite it in," he said. DeGeneres then said, "Let's put pliers and a whip in front of people."

Shia LaBeouf Ellen then recalled, "And, there was also this bowl of these really malicious tweets. So, people would come in and read them. I was sitting in there broken."

"I was really truly apologetic. So, I was, sort of, like, apologizing to the public in a way. So, I thought, for sure, people were gonna come in and be super mean from what I'd been reading," LaBeouf said. "But, it wasn't that way at all. It was very human. Once they got in there, everything changed."

"They stopped looking at me as like an object, they started looking at as like a human and they were very loving. It was really human," Shia LaBeouf Ellen recalled.
