Usually we see television shows get adapted for the big screen, and not the other way around. That's why all our favorite cartoons from childhood are the big summer blockbusters starring Shia Labeouf. That's why X-Files had another film, 10 years too late. But someone at ABC just said, "Eff it, let's buy the rights to that awful J-Lo film…..no, the other one…..no, not that one either."
POOR LITTLE ADRIAN "Adrian Grenier and his girlfriend, Transformers 2 star Isabel Lucas, have split on the heels of her car crash while driving with costar Shia LaBeouf, a source tells People. … 'Adrian saw her with Shia and that was kind of it — the crash, their hanging out. He obviously didn't appreciate it.'"
• It's the first picture of Nicole Kidman's baby Sunday. Except … we can't see her. At all. [DListed]
• Shia LaBeouf will not have his pinky finger amputated. That sound you hear is the entire Indiana Jones cast and crew breathing a huge sigh of relief. [ICYDK]
• Ashley Olsen has decided Starbucks is so 2007. [PS]
• Saint Angelina Jolie will build an AIDS clinic in daughter Zahara's homeland of Ethiopia. She really can do no wrong as of late. [INO]
• Jessica Alba popped out her baby and got back on the chair. [CityRag]
• Naked pictures of a 2004 Christina Aguilera would be more exciting if it were, you know, four years ago. [Yeeeah]
MORE GOOD NEWS FOR SHIA "Doctors have told Shia LaBeouf they may have to amputate one of his injured fingers. … The young star, now working on Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is likely to lose the pinky on his left hand, a source on the movie set says. 'Shia called producers yesterday and told them,' the source on the set in Alamogordo, N.M. says. 'It's really thrown the movie into turmoil.'"
Assuming that the in-production Transformers sequel will, like its predecessor, take 16 months to produce, the car accident injures sidelining star Shia LaBeouf for 30 days will put into jeopardy no less than $18,875,000, the Transformers 2 monthly budget.
DENY, DENY, DENY "Shia LaBeouf may have been arrested for DUI after Sunday's car accident — but Transformers director Michael Bay insists the actor was not impaired. 'He was not drunk,' Bay tells Access Hollywood in an interview slated to air Friday. 'He was drinking hours and hours before.'"
Despite the fact that on the night of Shia LaBeouf's car accident "it was immediately apparent to officers responding on the scene that LaBeouf was intoxicated," it's looking like the actor will indeed be let off the hook. Detectives have announced that Shia was not at fault for the accident — the other driver allegedly ran a red light, making him or her responsible.
Fair enough, but what about the fact that Shia was obviously drunk at the scene of the car crash? Does that count for nothing?

Shia LaBeouf finally graduated from smoking in restricted areas and getting drunk at Walgreens to actual DUIs, and what better way to celebrate than with a perfectly timed Details cover? The interview, which took place before Shia's latest run-in with the law, details his childhood hobbies, also enjoyed by his father:
We would drink together and smoke together and it's just a bad deal. It's not something that is conducive to being a role model — no iconic actors that I know of have problems like that. And I don't know how to do it like a gentleman. I don't know how to have one drink.
So while I think it's absurd he won't be held responsible by the California legal system, I still hold out hope that he is self-aware enough to get himself the help he obviously needs. Of course, I'm a dreamer.
The mystery woman who was riding shotgun when a drunken Shia LaBeouf caused that accident in West Hollywood? It was Isabel Lucas, Adrian Grenier's "girlfriend." Uh oh!
Back in May, while discussing with David Letterman his trespassing arrest at a Chicago Walgreens, Shia Labeouf noted, "Drinking and driving is one thing, but drinking and shopping … it's just as bad." Ha! Funny, because he knows that's not true. But now that the young actor has drunkenly rolled his pickup truck into another car in Hollywood, endangering himself and two others in the process, he probably wishes it were.

Now that Megan Fox is single, you can be sure there are plenty of lonely men lining up at her door to have intelligent discussions about politics and global warming. Sadly, however, she is sure to be off the market in the very near future — a break-up isn't a break-up without some sort of rebound relationship, and we've got the perfect rundown of Hollywood men for Megan to consider.
We have to hand it to Shia LaBeouf for at least attempting to keep up with Hollywood's losers: The kid's been arrested for wreaking havoc at a Walgreens and then was busted for smoking illegally on a sidewalk. This time he got creative on the set of his latest movie and pulled a stunt no one saw coming:
While shooting on location for Transformers 2, Shia decided to show off that rebellious spunk by smoking in the men's bathroom at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. Of course, smoke detector alarms went off and cops found the floating cigarette butt floating in the toilet.
His punishment: A stern lecture and a warning. Oh, Shia. You're so hardcore.

Shia LaBeouf, the young arriviste who talks like a street tough but looks like a Hebrew camp counselor, says he is "embarrassed" by a video that has recently surfaced showing him calling some dude a "faggot" and asking to be slapped.
Of course, he didn't actually say he was embarrassed, but his publicist did, and those people are pretty much the Jiminy Crickets of Hollywood.

Why is it that guys who use the word faggot are also the first ones to slap fight and whisper into each other's ears while bear hugging?

Shia LaBeouf stopped by the Late Show with David Letterman last night to explain what happened on that fateful night when he was arrested for causing a ruckus at a Chicago Walgreens. We've heard quite a few good drunk stories in our day, but this one is pretty entertaining. He's kind of an ass at times, but he owns up to his actions and for that we applaud him. Also? He uses the term "doo-doo crayon," thus making him forever a winner in our book.
