Shia LaBeouf's Today Show Love Connection

There's nothing like having Matt Lauer put in a good word for you, which certainly worked for an ardent admirer named Samantha on Thursday as she vied for the attention of Transformers star Shia LaBeouf while she stood in the plaza – talking to Lauer – outside the Today show's Studio A.

Inside, in front of the cameras, co-host Meredith Vieira informed LaBeouf that there was a young woman outside who "wants you to go out."

The actor's response, after having watched Lauer chat with Samantha: "I like Samantha a lot. She seems like a real special person. I would love to meet her – is she here?"

Cue Samantha, coffee in hand, entering the studio. Ever the gentleman, LaBeouf, 23, calls her a sweetheart and laments not having a seat to offer her.

"You look great," the actor says and asks if she is wearing her "say nice things to Shia outfit" – which the "shocked" young lady admits she is!

Facebook to Hit the Big Screen

Originally posted 06/24/2009 02:25PM

Facebook, the social networking giant, is hitting the big screen – but it's not the story of some young Americans' drunken escapades. The proposed film, tentatively titled The Social Network, adapts Ben Mezrich's new book, The Accidental Billionaires, which documents the Web site's founding by Harvard students in 2004.

David Fincher, who directed Brad Pitt in last year's The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, is attached to the project, Variety reports. He joins West Wing scribe Aaron Sorkin and producer Kevin Spacey. The Tech site CNET's The Social blog also reports that Michael Cera and Shia LaBeouf are among those being sought to play founder and current CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

Despite being considered one of the most talented young stars in Hollywood, Shia LaBeouf admits he has a "God-sized hole" of insecurity.

"Sometimes I feel I'm living a meaningless life and I get frightened. I know I'm one of the luckiest dudes in America right now," LaBeouf tells Parade magazine in its June 14 issue. "I have a great house. My parents don't have to work. I've got money. I'm famous. But it could all change, man. It could go away. You never know."

At the age of 23, LaBeouf says he is still trying to figure out life.

Shia LaBeouf's Injured Hand Like a Permanent Mistake

Originally posted 05/01/2009 07:55AM

While his career may be in high gear, Shia LaBeouf will always have one setback to deal with: his permanently injured hand from his July '08 car accident.

"I'll never be back to 100 percent or have full recovery," the star, 22, of this coming summer's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen tells Playboy for its June issue, on sale and online May 15.

"I can't zipper my zipper or button my shirt without extreme pain. But I chalk it up as my own s---. These things had to happen. This accident is what I needed in my life. I'm not in control. For the first time, I can admit that and know that. I'm a fallible individual, and the hand is like a tattoo that says MISTAKE."

Shia LaBeouf has revealed that he will never regain full use of his left hand after a car accident last July that left him in serious trouble.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, the Transformers star says he will likely recoup "about 80-something percent" of mobility in that hand. "I'll be able to make a fist again," he says. "There's a knuckle I'll never be able to move again, but that's probably the only permanent damage, other than the scarring."

Shia LaBeouf's driver's license has been suspended for at least one year as a result of his July 27 car crash, PEOPLE confirms.

The suspension took effect on Jan. 17 because LaBeouf, 22, "refused a chemical test" after officers pulled him over, according to the California Department of Motor Vehicles.

Los Angeles County Sheriff's Sgt. S. Wolf told the Associated Press in July that officers responding found it "immediately apparent" that LaBeouf was intoxicated, and he was placed under arrest.
