Shia LaBeouf is being accused of abuse by TWO women.
Singer FKA Twigs is suing the actor claiming he abused her multiple times and knowingly gave her a sexually transmitted disease.
The singer claimed that during a February 2019 trip to a desert, the “Transformers” actor repeatedly got angry with her, once waking her up in the middle of the night and choking her.
On the way home, she says he was driving recklessly without his seatbelt, threatening to crash the car. Later, at a gas station, he threw her against the car, screamed in her face and forced her back in the car.
Twigs says the incident was one of many, also accusing him of “relentless abuse,” including sexual battery, assault and infliction of emotional distress.
In a statement, Shia said he had a "history of hurting the people closest" to him.
The actor said, "I'm not in any position to tell anyone how my behavior made them feel.I have no excuses for my alcoholism or aggression, only rationalizations. I have been abusive to myself and everyone around me for years.I have a history of hurting the people closest to me. I'm ashamed of that history and am sorry to those I hurt. There is nothing else I can really say."
Singer Sia tweeted her support for FKA twigs, who is suing ex Shia LaBeouf, calling the actor “a pathological liar."
Sia tweeted, “I too have been hurt emotionally by Shia, a pathological liar, who conned me into an adulterous relationship claiming to be single.”
She added, “I believe he's very sick and have compassion for him AND his victims. Just know, if you love yourself - stay safe, stay away.”
(FYI: LaBeouf appeared in the 2015 music video for Sia's song “Elastic Heart” alongside Maddie Ziegler.)
