Shia LaBeouf 2014: A Timeline Of His Worst Year Ever, From Bizarre Behavior To Shocking Rape Allegations

Its been a very strange year for a very strange man. After many incidents of bizarre behavior, Shia LaBeouf is now claiming he was the victim of a rape during his five-day art installation in Los Angeles in February.

The news broke in an interview the actor did with Dazed magazine, where he claims a woman took advantage of him during the performance piece that had him sitting silent with a bag over his head. None of LaBeoufs representatives has been willing to elaborate on the matter, according to USA Today.

Its been a tumultuous year for the former Transformers actor, who was caught plagiarizing his directorial debut Howard Cantour.com in 2013. Below is a timeline of the actors public behavior in 2014:

Skywriter

The year kicked off with LaBeouf hiring a skywriter to etch the words, I am sorry Daniel Clowes into the sky above L.A., as noted by the Hollywood Reporter. Clowes is the graphic novelist whose work LaBeouf plagiarized in his film, as pointed out by Time magazine.

Press Conference

At a press conference for his latest film Nymphomaniac, LaBeouf sat with his co-stars, who were answering questions about the movie. He remained silent until a reporter asked him a question about the numerous sex scenes in the production.

When seagulls follow the trawler, it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea. Thank you very much, he said before walking out of the conference. The quotation is associated with soccer player Eric Cantona, BBC News reported.

I Am Not Famous Anymore

LaBeouf made headlines again when he attendend the premiere of Nymphomaniac: Vol. I at the Berlin Film Festival wearing the now-infamous paper bag over his head that read I Am Not Famous Anymore, as recounted by Yahoo Movies. The act was jarring and caught the attention of many in the media who wondered why someone who isnt famous anymore would be on a red carpet.
