Shia LaBeouf
I've had to deal with all different types of situations - positive and negative and extremes of both.
Shia LaBeouf
If people perceive you as a good actor then they'll wish for you to be a good actor and they'll root for you when they watch you, but if you come out and you're going to clubs every night people don't root for you anymore.
Shia LaBeouf
